WELL, I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER AFTER MY LITTLE BOUT WITH THE INFECTION. PROBABLY ABOUT NINETY PERCENT RECOVERED. I'VE BEEN ABLE TO WORK AROUND HERE A LITTLE BIT MORE EVERYDAY.
MY MIDDLE SON CAME UP FROM NASHVILLE AND STAYED ABOUT A WEEK OR SO, AND FINISHED ALL THE TRIM UP UPSTAIRS. WE JUST NEED TO FINISH PAINTING IT AND THAT JOB IS COMPLETE. NOT BAD FOR LIVING HERE 10 YEARS OR SO, LOL. HE MADE UP A COUPLE OF THE CLOSET DOORS BEFORE HE LEFT AND THE WIFE GOT THEM PAINTED. I HUNG THEM AND PUT ON THE HARDWARE AND CATCHES IN THOSE TWO ROOMS. I HAVE TWO MORE DOORS TO MAKE AND THEN I THINK THE UPSTAIRS IS FINISHED.
WE'RE GOING TO DO PIGS FOR 4H THIS YEAR, SO THE YOUNGEST SON AND I ARE GOING TO BUILD THE PEN THIS WEEKEND AND START ON SOME KIND OF LEAN TO TO HOUSE THEM. SEVERAL OF OUR FRIENDS DO PIGS SO WE'LL HAVE PLENTY OF EXPERIENCE TO GLEAN FROM THEM IN THE PROCESS.ONE OF THEBLOGS I READ REGULARLY IS FROM ONE OF MY COUSINS,http://crazyuncle.blogspot.com/. WE'RE PRETTY CLOSE AND HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH COLON CANCER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. HE'S ALREADY HAD THE SURGERY AND IS HOME, HE'LL START CHEMO IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS. I'M HOPING TO GO SEE HIM IN ABOUT THREE WEEKS OR SO, JUST A CHEER UP VISIT. HE STARTED ANOTHER BLOG TO TALK ABOUT WHAT HE'S GOING THROUGH, http://notwhatiwantedtohear.wordpress.com/ SO IF YOU'RE INTERESTED CHECK IT OUT. HE'S AN EMERGENCY ROOM NURSE SO HE HAS SOME MEDICAL EXPERIENCE.
MY WIFE AND I WENT TO A CIVIL WAR BALL A COUPLE OF WEEKS BACK, GOT DRESSED UP IN PERIOD CLOTHING AND DANCED TO PERIOD MUSIC AND WE HAD A BLAST. WE'VE DONE THIS A FEW TIMES BUT HAVEN'T FOR A FEW YEARS.WHILE I WAS HAVING MY PROBLEMS MY SONS CUT MY FIREWOOD FOR ME FOR THE WINTER AND I JUST RAN OUT. SO I BOUGHT A CORD OF WOOD FROM ONE OF THE NEIGHBORS AND I HOPE THE WEATHER WILL COOPERATE AND IT WILL BE ALL I NEED.
WELL I THINK I'VE COVERED IT ALL.
TALK TO YOU SOON,
TVI
