We have had a lot of sadness since my last posting. I will keep it short. Daddy had a really hard week. It started last week when Dixie Swindle passed away, then his cousin Catherine Cockrine that had been sick for some time was taken off all life support and she passed away shortly after that. Then we got a call that Susan's mom, Nannie Duncan, had died. All within 3 days. So, in two days Daddy had been to 3 funerals, and 4 visitations. By Sunday he was exhausted. But, then Monday he decided to have fried pies made for the guys at deer camp and he took it down to them and spent the night. He was coming home today, but got a call a while ago and he decided to stay another night.. He just keeps on going..

I left for work yesterday morning and had been at work for about 15 minutes and Daddy calls. His truck wouldn't start. So I called the garage and sent them to the house to get his truck started, he was on his way to deer camp, he was really upset, afraid he wasn't going to get to go!! :-) He is going to take his truck to Little Rock tomorrow to get it checked, it had to be jumped off again today.

Art bought Justine a basketball goal a little early birthday prize!! He said he has had lots of kids at the house playing basketball. Soccer is over so I guess we are going to start basketball!!

Sister came over yesterday to have her nails done and met me after work and we had dinner. Neither of us was feeling very good, but visited awhile and enjoyed seeing each other.

On the brighter side of things, Hayden killed his first deer!! I will try and get the picture posted. He and Teddy were really excited!!

Wally's had is still doing good, of course he isn't wearing his brace at night like he was suppose to so his finger will probably bend back down again!! Stubborn is his middle name. He has been really busy leaf blowing around the house, an everyday job this time of year.

Thanks to Russell and Sutton for coming and getting Daddy's wheelchair and taking it to LR. We have decided that Daddy had a little accident with it, but just didn't know what happened to it!! :-)

Talk later.
