Whew--my house was like Grand Central Station today! Since neither Doyle or I were working today we slept in, which we hardly EVER do, but it sure felt good. With the weather/work situation this week both of us have been pretty restless. Then the stream of visitors began: first Brad stopped by and surfed the net for awhile. My nephew called and said he & his little girl were on their way to the "farm" from Springfield and wanted to stop by and see us. Zoe & I had fun playing with the "Dora" dollhouse that I got on clearance at Wal-Mart. Then Brad and another nephew Luccus, stopped back by to check out the game camera pics and to surf the net some more. Then we ended up going into town to try out the new Mexican restaurant. There were 8 total in our group, but we got served pretty fast. It was okay, but I prefer the other Mexican place in town. Hard to believe that in a town of about 2500 we have McDonald's, Sonic, Pizza Inn, Subway, Blimpie's, Godfathers Pizza, KFC/Taco Bell, Casey's Pizza, a Chinese place, two Mexican places, a Sports Bar, a Bowling Alley w/restaurant, and three Mom & Pop Cafe's. Plus one of the grocery stores have an eat-in deli. Wow, I've never really listed them all before--that's a ton of places to eat for such a small town. Now, I'm off topic--anyway when we got home Brad and Luccus were gone, so it is quiet for now. I'll try to see Kurt & Zoe again tomorrow before they head back to Springfield, hopefully that will work out.
Weather update--thankfully we never lost power and our road was finally graded late Wednesday night. I ended up working on Thursday (I only missed one day), but Doyle's work was cancelled until Monday. Hopefully next week we will get back to our "normal" schedule.
