What's Shakin!

Howdy. Been awhile since I've posted anything on this here blog. Been busy!
Gardening, re-decking, work, house up-keep...you know the usual domestic nonsense.
We've had near 30 days straight sunshine, no rain, no clouds, breezes, and then VOILA on Fathers Day, out of no where & I swear just on us, a serious downpour with thunder and lightening just happened. We were on our way to McClendon's to purchase more stain and lawn seed. The clouds looked black, yet I wasn't super worried. Rain wasn't forecasted. For the first time ever, we started believing in the weather man. HA!
Heidi here had forgotten to roll up her car windows. Lets say thank GOD for leather as it wipes down well. As for the carpet, I hope it dried out by now. Hasn't rained since Sunday.
After the boys were in bed, and it was near 9pm, the rain still coming down, I went out on the front porch, sat there and enjoyed the warm weather as it poured buckets. Love summer storms.
Trenten's toe has healed right nice. The toenail may take a while to re grow, yet its determined to re grow. Hasn't stopped that child one bit, to which we are thankful for that.
Trenten is right out there with Thomas, hammering away on the deck boards "helping papa". Everyday when I get home from work, he shares what he and papa have been working on in the back yard. Its precious.
Thomas is on his THIRD week of working the "opening" shift at his work. Yeah it was supposed to be just three weeks, then thing return to normal for the week of July 4th holiday. He would be off before noon Friday so we could hook up the trailer ((thank you Tricia & Tony)) and head south. YEAH RIGHT! Thomas tells me after I get home that all plans have gone sideways. He need sto work this shift yet another week, possibly two! The only positive is, Thomas is home with Trenten from 10:30 on. Our new sitter Kourtney is thus FREE!! Working right nice for her first week of new employment. She thinks our TT is a "breeze". Also is wonderful that she has been his evening and sometime week-end sitter / playmate. He adores her....
Sooooo another week of insane sleeping patterns, attempting to keep TT quiet from about 7:30 til he falls asleep, and getting home to have dinner, coffee, lunches and work stuff ready for the next day by 8pm! DOWN TIME? I have no idea what that is, and its alright with me.
So that is the latest with Cottage d'Orr. No big plans for travel. No big plans for much other than HOUSE HOUSE HOUSE ((floors, windows, front door, garage door and that is plenty for now)).
We are taking financial donations!! Just send your $$ to our POB!
HA HA HA

Time for this momma to go to bed! 4:30 comes to damn early.
