Friday again!

This month is just zipping by..... I keep thinking about school starting and realizing it this will be "4 "school years" since I have had to really "think" about school stuff!

We haven't been doing a whole lot here this past week really. Our days at working have been busy and it makes the day go by much faster. We had several of the "Wichita Open" golfers here this past week. A couple of them had been in the office when I was and were very nice to visit with. So we have been watching them in the paper. Not bad earnings for a weekend of "play"...hahah!!!
A group of construction workers are just about to finish up their job here and are so anxious to get out of here and either go home or onto another job. They should find out today if they leave or stay another week...... I know how they feel about being ready to leave and have to stay!

We are down to about 9 weeks left here and Bill and I are really getting anxious to get on the road and do something different! I KNOW I am!
The owner has 2 little kittens or now becoming terror cats that are in the office and they are a mess! I can't stand the cat hair all over and flying around let alone them crawling all over the desk and in my face and the customers faces! I am embarrassed when they do that and they are not my cats! I have never been a cat lover and have tolerated these cats and our friends cats but these cats need to learn some "manners" dealing with customers! Ok...I have vented and I feel better ...... One of the other workkampers lets them roam all over and feeds them so when I work or one of the other couples work they have to learn all over again!

We made a day trip to Hutchinson on Tuesday to get a pan handle or knob for my pots and pans that I have had since the early 80's. It is a lifetime waterless set and I have most of the pans stored but the slow cooker is what I use quite a bit and the handle had desingrated..... so we contacted a man here who used to sell the sets but he called the place in Hutchinson where it started. So we found the place and got a new handle for nothing! We stopped for lunch and then went back through Yoder to a neat little quilt store there and then back home. Nice day for a little trip.

I have been working on our granddaughter's quilt this week and finally got the binding on it and now to finish it up before her birthday next week! Can't believe she will be 1 year old next week! She now has 4 teeth that have finally came in and I can't wait to see her and the rest of the kids next weekend. One good thing about this job is that we are able to see the kids quite regularly even though it is a 2 hr. drive yet.

Most of our Newmar friends are either traveling yet from the rally or heading home soon.....anxious to visit with some of them and hear all about the fun time they had last week at the International Rally in Goshen, Indiana...... maybe next year we will be able to go too.

We only worked 3 days this week and they have been spread out all week...beginning with last Sunday and Wednesday and this Saturday...... kind of nice to have day between but next week we will be working on Thursday and Friday and then off for several days.

Enough rambling for this time!
Until next time!
