AND the white chairs in the bunkhouse got a fresh spray of paint.  I took out my sewing machine and zigzagged to yellow placemats together for the cover on the bench in the shower room.  My machine was out and in the afternoon I put together 2 bluejeans flowing shirts from previous jeans and skirts.  Now that was a fun thing to do.  I had seen a jean skirt at Charro days and gathered items to make it.   It was a good day. 

Home

 We got the basement ready for next Airbnb.  It was left clean, so just wash sheets, Dede did floors, make the bed, and disinfect.  At 1:30 we headed to Cherokee and stopped at Tiefentaler to get prime rib for Thanksgiving meal.  Then to Denny's hearing aide appointment.  I excused myself I got a BIG rocker from New Leaf for $25.  A kind fellow helped me load it, and it took quite a while, but we got it in.  We went to Mandy's for supper.  On final Fridays the boys get to have a friend over to play after early out.  The boys used the hot tub, played with loc blocks and drove the It was a rainy drive home.  Denny drove and didn't like the light of my phone.  We got home and headed to bed.   Pretty picture of the pool at 4 seasons. 

Not feeling good

 I woke up around 2:30 am.   and didn't feel like I could fall back asleep.  I had taken relaxing magnesium or some type of sleep pill last night hoping to find an answer to my poor sleep. Around 4:30 I did fall back asleep, but woke sup with a tummy ache, and bowels rumbling.  It was not a fun time at 6 am when I made barely it to the laundry room.  I threw up yellow bile in the sink and etc. in the stool.  I went back  to bed.  In the afternoon I texted study and tied then Ii wasn't coming in today.  to bed only to get up about 30 minutes later.   and another 30 minutes later.  Well, that was about my day.  Denny went to drive tractor at Larsons.  I lay around in the sun room watching HGTV remodel shows.  I did blend the squash, make soup, and cupcakes and put 4 bags of 2 cups off squash in the freezer.  Not my best day Denny came home about 7.   Pretty pictures from Nepal.

Road trip to fields

 After Church and SS Denny and I went on a road trip to the fields that he has driven a tractor.  WOW!!  ;we drove 115 miles and WOW lots of small roads to travel with BIG machines.  AND there were lots of irregularly shaped fields along the Denison river.  AND lots of steep hills.  I got the Hangries.  and talked Denny into stopping at Pizza Ranch and buy some lunch by the 60 cents an ounce.  We could have driven more.  There were some fields that we didn't drive to.  BUT I wanted to be back at our home so I could ride with Lynn to pickleball in IG.   it was fun!!  about 9 people. Lynn stopped to visit after she dropped me off.  

Home on Saturday

 Denny drove tractor for Larson's. I don't know what I did.  Uffda!!!  Just remembered ... I drove to Danbury and took a Bob Ross painting class.  It was fun!!  BUT in No place would there be 2 mountains like I put in the picture.  My bad!! Uffda!!!  I do like doing it though.

Denny left to drive tractor for Larsons.  It was the first time he had done chisel plowing.  After OGT I drove to Cherokee and met Jan at Monterey, nice lunch, then we stopped for coffee at 59 grind.  Great to visit with her.  I picked up the boys after school.  We had French fries at Dairy Queen and then selected a gift for Mom at New Leaf.  Hard to beat the free table.  Denny worked until after 7.  My tulips came 152 Henk Mis from C&J farms llc.  I planted 100 out in the front among the hostas.  

Alta

 Denny was going to go to Rodd's, but no . I volunteered at Alta for 3-4 hours and stopped at Sue K. on the way home.  Denny was still around.  Bummer.  He listed/'watched videos on the rest of the work that needs to be done on the car.  He said it looks like a lot.  Boys carved pumpkin while they were here and couldn't find Jack's football when we were ready to head to Holstein for the show.  

Church SS PB

 I got up and showered before doing my lesson for SS.  Great time at church.  I filled with gas and we headed home for rest and relax before I headed into IG to play pickleball.  5:30-7.  Gary, Dave, Scott, Sydney, Beau V Nikki, Renae F.  Oh, yes, and Denny took the snakes out of the egress window before next airbnb-er checks in.  How nasty is that!! ... But Lincoln really liked to see the snakes.   

Home

 I sorted thru the sheet closet.  I washed the windows.  That's about all that I did.  Denny drove the tractor for Larsons.  Picture from yesterday Denny helping at Rodd's.

 Boys did a great job of getting up.  Then loved the Cheerios they brought to G'ma's.  They play together so nicely.  Dodningn lots of fun things.  Outside with the football,cutting jackolanterns,  hunting for kittens, feeding kittens,  I showed them where the cat food was so they tried to get them from under the deck.   They found lots of goodies there.  We ate a quick supper and headed to Holstien to watch Daniel and the Fiery furnace.  

Study. Get boys

 Shower, devo, DAB, prayer.  Rodd was going someplace and so Denny and I went to SC.  He got a haircut, I got Mr. StirFry.  There were 9 of us at study with Peggy, Pat, Pam,Teresa, Susan,Judy Darlene and me.  I drover to Cherokee to get boys.  Jack did n[t have football practice.  Denny went to Rodds after we got back from SC.  Good to have the boys here.  Denny is kinda frustrated that the car isn't getting done unless he is there.  Lord, help.

Home.

 Slow morning. I love time with Denny.  He left for Rodd's about 9 and was there until 6.  I kinda kept busy with digging holes for tulips (that are coming sometime). Hopefully before the freeze.  I sorted 2 totes in the siairway closest.  I listened to the lecture and notes for my Zoom BSF.  I straightened up in the CSA barn.

He helped put the hoist together. and was not surprised that nothing had been done since his last visit.  At least working on the hoist made it seem like it was something that would help get his car closer to the goal.  At home we watched an angel movie Indivisible.   True story 2007.  Great movie!!

Alta. Cherokee

I was up for DAB, and headed to Alta around 9.  Denny drove tractor for Larsons.  6 cans of white spray paint for 59 cents.  I'll use them to paint the stand  for bunk house porch that I got at OB white.  At 2 I headed to Cherokee and took a nap at Mandy's they got back from Minnisota just in time for the soccer game.  Boy was it cold.  Uffda!!!  At home Denny did his last work for Larsons for a while.

Cleaned Prairie Whole

 Denny's pain is less, that's good. He went to drive tractor for Larson's.   I went into town to get my lisinipryl about 10 and groceries.  I spent most of afternoon in the basement, reading, washing bedding, cleaning, sorting thru tubs in the stairway closet.  AND trying to figure out is I indeed did buy another 150 tulips.  YUP I guess I did in March and failed to remember it.  Uffda!! Home place Airbnb'ers are headed to a Dausel wedding this afternoon.  Hubers left. after Renae gave them a quick tour of bunkhouse and cabin.    Cooks + ran a 10 K in Cable Wisconsin.  Markey saw that the egress windows are a good place for snacks.  Uffda!! Lord, just don't let them into the house.  Lincoln like the short video I sent them.  

Home

 Coffee,  devo Denny left to drive tractor.  I had zoom BSF at noon.  it is tricky for me to get zoomed in.  I just keep pressing buttons until it works, but IO have no idea how???  I tried to call Anabel, but she was in a Chem test, Then I went to mow the lawn and missed her call.  When I called her back she was with friends and waiting for Cooks to arrive.   I worked in garden today.  I dug up grass around my Hydrangeas and put clod of grass over by under road ditch and light pole west of road.  The road trip for Cooks/Anabel and Sienna is on.  Cooks were working until noon, picking up Jan and boys at 1, heading to Northfield to get Anabel and then to airport to get Sienna.  (She is a good friend of Anabel, who moved from Nepal their Junior year and they haven't been together since then.) Then to Cable Wisconsin.   Thank you Jesus for working this encouragement out.    Denny came home with very sore muscles around his ribs.  He did not sleep well.   Hubers' children got a ride on the big tractor Denny drives.  

Happy Birthday, Becky!!!!
