As we prepare to go to training, it's becoming more "real" that we're going to be on the road for quite a bit of time. I have taken this opportunity to go through many of the things we have accumulated through the years. I have given so many things away, and have more to give to Deseret Industries. They are my favorite organization to give things to. On Tuesday we are having a get together at my church, and we're going to have mini-yard sale that night amongst the women that come. Well, perfect timing for me,as I have a ton of great "stuff" that I don't need....I am going to part with some of my fabric that I've been storing, just in case....well, since I won't be here to sew, I might as well share the wealth so to speak! It's amazing how great it feels to de-junk...
Ashley had a friend come over today to help out in the yard. I would have to say that Skyler must have one wonderful family. This young man just jumped in and started shoveling rock and carting the wheel barrow around like a pro! What a blessing he was to our family. Duane and Ashley had been working out there for a few hours, and just having the extra hands and positive attitude picked up their spirits! They were moving a large pile of slate rocks that were to make a dry creek bed...it looks great by the way. Nice to have one of Duane's long term projects completed in time for the fall leaves...
I am making lists and checking them more than twice, that's for sure. I realize that we will be packing for more than one type of weather, and if you know me, you know that I prefer dresses over pants. Well, I know that I need to wear pants to do this whole truck training, and no sandals either....for some reason I prefer open sandals or going barefoot. I will adapt, at least for training. Looking forward to visiting Duane's cousins and other relatives on our way to drop Ashley at school...this is it for tonight, see you soon!
