Winter is here 10-4-08

The Coldness is upon us! We didn't have a real summer! It was cold and rainy most of the time. *shrugs* there is always next year.
I'm a bit peeved this week... our mail was stolen again!!!! I'm so tired of it!! I think we are getting new mail boxes. * Dad talked to the post master person, they think it is somebody that we know that doesn't like us ...... * hmm wonder who that could be ???* I can think of 4 people right now that would commit federal offensives and not bat an eye* (they do it all the time). I hope we get the security that I'm looking for.. I would hate to be caught red handed by the police or us... We are taking precautions with our mail. As of late so nothing of huge importance is coming to our main address.
Hmm what else... I got my very cracked windshield replaced last week. It is so Nice to actually see a clear view! * The Alcan High Way was rough on my car both ways* Someday I will actually get around to doing a deep cleaning of my car. * It hasn't been done since before Pittsburgh*
We actually had a fall this year, so there is a good layer of leaves everywhere, I think it will make good insulation for the grass. Mom got all her plants, tables, and deck chairs off the porches. All the decks look bare and just empty!
Dad is getting his surgery some time this month. I'm really proud of him for being able to wait all summer, to get his resurfacing hip surgery. They think her will recover pretty fast so I'm pretty excited!
Dad went hunting in Sep and got a Moose! we only got about 150lbs from it. Dad went hunting with his friend John H. whom took 5 of his kids. The whole trip they got two moose so the meat was split up. Dad hung it for 5 days and then he, mom and I butchered part of the meat one night then Scott, Kristy, Brian, Debbie and Parents finished all the meat the next day. I *babysat the kids hehe, good ol-movies... they were both in a bad mood * I can't stand the smell of raw meat and even cooked meat gets to me... it was a killer to cut meat over 6 hours the first night... I had a bandanna over my nose and mouth with mint oil on it... hehe it worked for the most part..
Echoa had her dental the middle of Sep, she had to have 4 teeth pulled... 3 were bad in the very front, ( she broke one when she was playing with a toy) it caused the two on either side of it to get loose and go bad. Her very back tooth had all three roots exposed... "poor dog". While she was under I also had her nails trimmed short! yes no more LONG nails! whoo hoo. She did great before, during and after the surgery. Echoa was only on meds for a week, so she did heal fast.
April got slightly sick last week, it was not her horrible sickness though. I'm so thankful for that!
I guess the biggest news around the house is that Debbie and Brian are engaged. They are planing to have a wedding 03/06/09... Nothing big but I think it will awesome. I'm very happy for them both. Their engagement did not come as a surprise to anybody here....
Debbie had a girly party at her place today, that was a blast. Linda "Brian's mom", Laura, Tammie "our aunt", Kristy, Me and Debbie all dyed hair, did paraffin wax on hands, did nails, had dinner, and finger foods, and of course movies.
My hair extensions lasted over a month, my hair was growing out so much that they were driving me crazy so I took them out. ( I do miss them though) . I don't have any spare money at the moment, but when I do I will get my own set up to do extensions. hehe I can't wait.
Kristy started a beginners clogging class, this week my aunt Tammie joined! I am so excited to have her part of it!! So far not many will be able to attend the October classes but in November it should fill up with a bunch! I really hope to have more dancers available for performances.
My parents are not selling the house! They are opening a bed and breakfast sometime in 09. I'm working on a web site for it so i'm up for ideas!.. The name is "Birchwood Manor B&B" We will be offering spa treatments, and pets upon approval so we will have more to offer at a better price than other local places. I'm looking forward to having guest from all over. I think we are only going to make 4 bedrooms avalible for the B&B. Mom wants a few guest rooms for our friends.
Work has been going pretty good. Nothing of note to mention. Dad did finish the tubs, and the customers and we love them! I hardly get wet.
The third Christopher Polioni book Brisingr came out in Sep! I loved it!!! He just keeps getting better! I've been reading like crazy hehe
Well thats all I can remember to talk about at the moment. Love to All Dream Sweet ~Jewls~
