Been a long week - this will be a rambling post. We still need rain
desperately - it is cloudy and cooler tonight. But so far not a drop up
here. The grass is brown and crunchy - crops are shriveling in the
field. We had some rain over the weekend - seemed like the corn grew
inches. But we need more - the corn leaves are rolled up again. My
zuchinni does have a tiny baby on it - hoping it survives.
I said it's been a long week - Monday morning early Mom K called us to come help her get Dad back to bed. (Early like 4 am). We went and got home about an hour later. 90 minutes later she called again - this time to have help getting him up and into the ER. Ended up with Dad K getting admitted - he was just released today. He had an infection and broke his nose during the 2nd fall. That short night took a couple days to recover from. I will never regret going - to help anyone. But between the lack of sleep and the memories it brought up...wow.
Summer is flying by. Guess the boys will be going to church camp next week. Squirrel has done alot of work to make that happen - we have no counselors going from our church so it wasn't being advertised. He checked into it and began making arrangements for those who wanted to go to go with another church. But now that we are down to the last "minute" he's somewhat ambivalent. There is no one going from our school and no one that he is close to from church. So it will be an opportunity for him to make new friends. And he usually loves it. Dipstick will be going also giving B and I some uninterrupted time together - after work hours at least.
After church camp comes the 4H fair followed by a trip to Ontario to see my folks. After that it seems like school will be starting again already.
