I have been told I need to blog again, I know I've been negligent, but I have been so tired that when I get on here I just don't have the energy left to think and produce a coherent post. I'm not sure this one will be coherent, but I'll give it a try. This week has been busy and tiring. Steve has been doing some painting at the go cart track where his airbrush booth is located. They are building yet another track, and a skating rink! We are pretty excited about the skating. To build it they tore down a small hotel, which just happened to have roof trusses the right size for the garage Steve wants. So in trade for the trusses he is doing some painting he normally won't do, you know, "normal" painter work. Painting the steel railing around the track (a couple hundred feet of it) and a stone wall that is probably around a hundred feet all together. It's a lot of painting. So he called in the reinforcements, the kids and I! We spent two days painting the railing, then today the kids got a day off and I helped him paint the rock wall. I am WORN OUT!!! The kids had fun and got lot's of attention from everyone at the track. The owner, a friend of Steve's family, went on and on about what great kids we had, what hard workers they are etc. etc. He told me I should get the mother of the year award. Makes you feel good for a second till you remember all your shortcomings that he doesn't know about. In fact, I know that he is psychotically clean, and if he saw my somewhat cluttery, lived in home he would take the award away! What I did feel good about was that the whole thing was a way to show my husband honor, and that all those guys could see that the kids and I loved and respected him. I could see that they respect him for his success with his family. I got Willow signed up and paid up to attend Worldvie Academy this summer. Oops that was supposed to say Worldview..............She is so excited. Check out the link, they have some great articles on their blog, and a book store with excellent worldview books and courses. You can actually get DVD's of the Academy classes which is a much cheaper way to do it. Well my brain is about tapped out, so I'll close. Maybe I'll add a picture or two.  This is a beautiful picture Willow took. Some mornings there are hundreds of these spider webs covered in dew on the tips of the weeds and grass.  This is one of our cats that I actually like, Nefertiti. This was one of her favorite sleeping spots for awhile, maybe the aroma of rosemary helped her sleep. Well, I've done my blogging duty, g'nite! Amy |
