On the mend

I guess you all know by now that I have been sick. I thought Icould get over it on my own, but apparently pneumonia takes more aggressive action. I'm still coughing and have not energy, but I should be well by next week. We had our holiday dinner at church yesterday, so things are going to quiet down there for a while. We don't do much in December. I have been so depressed over the election, but I guess it's time to move on and look to 2010. So, we start to think about Thanksgiving. Also, we must keep Matt and Christal in our prayers. Her job may be in jeopardy and I just heard this morning that Citigroup will be cutting 50,000 jobs. Matt works for Citi Bank. They really could not afford that at all. So keep them in your prayers.
Love you all

Just a little fun

I hope this cartoon comes through. I know after last Friday Melissa will really appreciate it. This is just another wonderful fall day in Indiana. I can't believe how beautiful it has been. I hope it lasts a while longer. My favorite time of the year.

Hurricane Ike

We didn't go to Gustof, but we are still on alert. If Ike goes into the gulf, we will be called out. Probable this weekend or on Monday. There are several teams down there now and still lots of chain saw work to do. They are going home this week, so they need replaced. We went up Monday and got our mudout trailer cleaned up. It hadn't been cleaned since it was used by the people at Worthington. It was a horrible mess. So, we are in a wait and see mode again. It's when you don't buy any fresh produce and only buy milk in 1/2 gallons.
Yesterday I picked two gallons of rasberries and made it all into jelly. And there are at least that many green berries out there. Avril, Alex, and Ireland would love it. And I'm sure the rest would too, if they could come and pick.
