5 days

I agree with Tera that we all just seem too busy. Well hopefully in 5 days I can relax a little. That's when all the guys leave for their annual trip to the Colorado Mountains elk hunting. Amy and I just about have everything ready for them to load up. They plan to load our trailer Sunday evening and leave sometime before daylight on Tuesday. It is a 25 hour drive but they plan to break it up this year and stop and get a few hours sleep on the way. We have been working like a group of crazy people trying to get a bunch of small jobs done before they leave. Yesterday I was running from job to job and my truck was like a mobile office. I had my front seat full of file folders and was constantly on the phone(while driving) scheduling services changes with the power company or running after supplies. On one run I stopped at WalMArt (at my hubby's request) to get him a box of shells for his gun. He called as I was leaving and said to please get out of WalMart and bring some more material to the job site .WELL I would have already left but his stupid shells kept setting off the alarm(that makes you feel like a thief). The clerk kept trying to scan them to stop the security buzzer but wasn't getting anywhere. Now you tell me-she knew what the problem was so why not just let me go? I think she had a problem passing 2nd grade or maybe I was just stressed. We had to all step back and chill out by the end of the day. Today wasn't much better as we all ran again. The guys were on like 4 different jobs and I had to go to the engineers office and then had a meeting with the city manager. I was home long enough to feed my deer and then was off to a Conservation Club meeting. I am the secretary. I hope tomorrow to finish packing Jay's hunting clothes and equipment and can some beef and noodles for them to take. I need to plant my mums which have sitting under the tree staring at me for a week as I run by them and jump in the truck. Thank goodness the good Lord watered them for me today with a nice shower. He knew I didn't have time or I should say -I didn't take time.Love to all.
