We have been busy. We got a new pool, and we were shocked at how much bigger it is than our last one. The last pool was a balloon type on the top, and it was 18' across. But, that is at the bottom, and the sides slant up. So, we still have an 18' pool by 48" deep. It is nice!! The children have been in it a couple times, but we really need a bit warmer weather.
I did some work out in the garden, pulled out the old fencing, along with the stakes. Got it all weeded out. This year, we only have asparagus, and a raspberry plant, and 2 strawberry plants (they are Matthew's). The rhubarb didn't make it. I should find the receipt and get my money back.
We also moved a pole for the volleyball net, so it will be straighter.
We are doing a bunch of cleaning, and trying to get things organized. We did a bunch of work in the garage, and still have a bunch more to do. We are trying to get things off the floor. I have 12 metal chairs that are now hanging on the wall. I am trying to get the flying turtles to be able to hang on a wall, as well, but I just got the proper hooks for those today. Poor hubby took a tumble on a flying turtle. He was carrying a ladder, and didn't see the flying turtle under him, and he went straight down. We also bought another shelving unit to put together. We tried to buy a peg board, and got it out to the car, but it wouldn't fit in the trunk, or in the car, so we had to return it. We will wait until the truck is out of the shop. We did buy a hanging unit, and got the trimmer, and trolling motor hanging on that. It is nice to get it cleaned up. But, we still have a ways to go. I am trying to sell some of the furniture that Ben didn't want any more.
Tomorrow, Matthew goes in to get the cast removed, and the pins taken out. I'm not sure how they will work it, whether they put some kind of velcro on the original cast, so he can wear it when he goes outside, or if they give him a splint, or what. We shall see. He has a lot of signatures on it!
Josh told us today, that he is quitting his job, and going into construction with his brother-in-law. We are so very happy for him, as his job wasn't being the nicest to him.
Jon is starting a job, soon, with waste management. Changes all around!
Josiah and Jeremiah and Claire are coming over tonight. So, I should get busy, and get supper started.
Blessings!
