Rest and relaxation

In bed until 7 :)  Like to sleep in.  Slow morning, Grands came down and we didn't leave for donuts until 8:50.  Brooks sat with us in church.  Listened to the first story of Cool Tangerines in SS.  After church, quick lunch and a nap.  I finished the Netflix movies: A Mother's Courage: Talking back to Autism and  The United States of Autism.   Denny started vacuuming and shampooing the rugs.  I helped move things.  Started the Boxcar children and the Snow storm.  We had oreos and ice cream out in the coop.  Went to Loziers, but no campfire in the rain. Back home to watch beautiful rainbow, kids and 2 videos on Autism until midnight. Denny joined me in the Temple Grandin. She developed the cattle processing tub system. With all the rain the sump pump started on August 31. How strange is that!!! Something is up, just trusting God in it all.

A whole 3 days in front of me ... :)

Up looking at Facebook until after midnight.  Then slept in until 7:20.  That's a record.  Big Smile, but can't stay up that late regularly. We worked at unit taking out the crates that are rusty. We mowed after that. Pictures from earlier this summer:

Staff cookout before the game

Worked on school in bed in am. Pictures of BBQ. and visit from Jeff H. and flowers that Angie picked on Tuesday CSA.

Rain, Rain, Rain,

Wow, it is raining again... Regular day at school.  I showed the wedding video to rr ladies after school.  At home, I helped get flowers for the Grands' teachers.   Denny and I chilled out by CSA barn for a while  before heading in.   Pictures of the flowers we got for the Grands' teachers:

Awana training

Didn't sleep the best last night.  Lots to do, no coffee on the deck.  Denny had lots to load up in the Jeep.  Computer, food, vegetables to make salads at church.  We got out of school at 2 for PD. Alicia lead it. Suppose to set up a time for PLC meetings.  I thought that when we have the PD it would be a good time to meet, but I hear that is not an option.  After school I headed to Arthur. After I had the salads made Denny said there were chairs 90% off af Shopko.  I went there and bought 2 chairs and 1 table, All for $43.  At 6 the Awana meeting started.  There were 25 that came for training.  Denny did a good job.  He showed Mandy and Jason'd video before starting the meeting.

Getting ready for Awana supper

Up early to make cavatini for Awana supper.  I made 3 pans and have 2  pans already made.  Won't run out.  I gave Jeff M. Our share of vegetables.  He and his son C came out to the farm.  Denny grilled burgers and Phillip put veggies on the grill.  We ate outside on the deck.

Ice bucket

Was thinking that I didn't need to have too much info about ALS challenge maybe not.    At home I took a nap during the news, then up for a couple pieces of pizza, then spent  about 2 hours putting flowers together for CSA. Denny was lol about Fellhoffets challenge and Torren and Haley's challsnge.  Sheri challenged the 3 of us teachers on Facebook.  So maybe I'll have to figure out what to do.  (I wrote a check to ALS.  Lynzie is checking into funding for a person in Charter Oak instead of sending it to national headquarters where out of a $100 ...  $7 goes for research.

Mandy and Jason back in Denver after their honeymoon

Read Box car and donuts before church, Then Jensens headed to Rolands church and free passes to King's Pointe. Denny is working on Awana and I would like to catch up on the Blog. Uffta. Lots of days without pictures and I like to put 4 pictures on each day.  Didn't get a nap.  Worked on school planning and Awana and didn't go to prayer time. src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5RLFrN1Y4e9v9gpN5pGoIU42mZhEGGQw7Lq2_BU6H4ArC_wpD08yPgMkwehTcb5imYgdgG1zusynS_1NH_AtP-LguPw66bC95O9IHJezKG4L1sJY7pFpGnbhq8UQkotapXy0rqZYhOw/s400/995063_10102014896313600_781586446493651910_n.jpg" /> Pictures of stained glass in church:

Visit Kenny Angus

Up early to work on school stuff. Put Salsa in bags and in freezer. Read a couple more chapters of Boxcar Children and had donuts. Left for Carroll oil change for Prius at 8:30. Left Carroll at 11 to go to Schaller. Kenny's invited us to their purebred Angus tour lunch at their home. After that Denny headed to Storm Lake and I went to the high school. Came home and chilled alittle. Then I mowed the yard, Denny moiwed the Unit. We sprayed the weeds at the unit and I picked flowers for Church. Jensens had a CSA evaluation meeting. 11-5.

Thursday August 21
Slept well last night.  Left for school when bus went by.  Took flowers in for Cathy H. and Carol S. birthdays.  After school I got my glasses tightened.  So glad to get that done.  I may wear my glasses most days.  Getting harder to read.  Stopped at Doses.  Home to meet with Beth C. and Kara N. to get flowers for a bridal shower.  I made 3 bigger arrangements for serving table.  They put together 2 quart jars and 10 pint jars of flowers.  Really turned out pretty.  Then I headed to IG to see Beth B. as the church bunch helped her load the moving truck.  So sad to see her leave.

First day of school. Good day

Got to school pretty early.  Good day. Usual needing to change some students' schedules.  After school I had a haircut in Wall Lake. Pictures of Dad and Daughter dance at Cook wedding:

Time to work on schedules

Up at 6.    Went out to CSA and put together shares for tonight.  I was at school by 7:45.  There was an Odsyyey training, but we had too much to do with our student schedules.  Seems like we are behind the eight ball.  We ordered lunch in from the bowling alley.  It was Kate B. birthday.  I gave her my share.  Left school to be at the farm.  Denny had a haircut.  He got steaks from Odebolt Legion.  GREAT!!  We ate them out on the deck.  I worked on school work as Denny sprayed the bugs on my flowers.  There was a person who came to the bank to talk.  Denny called the demolition person.   A man looking into building windmills came to the farm during CSA.
