Busy Days

Well, another busy weekend just went by. I had to work on Saturday. I don't really mind working Saturdays. Since the lobby isn't open, I can get a lot of stuff done. I got almost caught up on a lot of little things that have been sitting on my desk. Then Saturday afternoon we got started cleaning and doing laundry. I did my weekly cleaning around the house and weeded a little bit in the gardens. Saturday night we had some friends over and lit the fire pit. That was very nice. It felt good to relax and laugh a lot. Sunday was the power day. We cleaned the garage for the the engagement party. Put everything away, threw a lot of stuff, and scrubbed down the work bench and floor. Once that was done, we started the patio. We put up a ceiling fan out there that Randi and Travis gave us and then put rope lights up around the ceiling. It was also Father's Day so Denver came to visit and bring Leon his gift. He stayed for supper too so that was very nice. The only down side was that Danielle couldn't come. She was on call and had to stay in Brookings. Monday was a continuation of the cleaning blitz. All the little things that we don't mind living with, but you know you need to do if you are going to have company. Last night was band practice. It was so hot that the sweat was just running down my back. Tonight will be another night of preparations. Probably mowing, spraying the lawn and patio for mosquitoes and more weeding. Thursday is our concert. Then Friday Leon will have his regular treck to the races with the fire truck. Saturday we have a parade in Pipestone in the morning, then the party is Saturday night. Yipes. So much to do, so little time before the party starts. I better get busy.
