Freezing

It started out cold, ended colder! Please let this winter be mild. I feel bad for the football players at killdeer. Saturday is sure to be coldest yet. Low 25. Brad is watching the baseball play offs. Curtis and I went to buckskin and shared chicken fried steak dinner. Yep that's how big it is. So good when you are starving. Nichole to a early night to bed. It sure is quiet not having our little friends next door. The costly and bird family moved a few blocks the wrong way. I think Lewis bought another house do they could afford the rent. They split the cost of the top floor and some other couple are downstairs. They are lucky to have two bathrooms we are still with one bathroom but the family has a good rhythm of schedules with the bathroom in the mornings. We all get to our places nice and clean. Getting under a warm blanket and calling it a night. Good night.

Another manic Monday

It's like a schedule weather forecast from last week. Rainy and dark. So I decided to wear my bright yellow scarf to off set the mood. I already feel better and warmer. I am waiting for Curtis to pick me up and I will be off to work. It's pay week so a lot of envelopes and paper shuffling and maybe a handful of truckers wanting to know why there checks are wrong. The truckers never seem to catch the vision of turning in their tickets on time. I know days slip by very quickly but come on huh? Went to work and the Internet went down all day. So only half the pay roll got done. Chaos will happen when the checks won't go in until Thursday. Second time in a row. Ugly days this week. I hope we survive.i hope some how it might go in on time crossing fingers. Watching the debate tonight and see we as a country need a lot more help than we expect. I seem to see more things I was not aware of. I hope payroll goes through and the right president will be chosen.

Sunday

Sitting under my covered porch and enjoying the cool evening. Wow I love this porch. It looks like it rained a little while I took a nap. Curtis is out on a oil site helping a new pusher and helping where needed. I guess with this job here in Dakota you never know when you are needed. We're so blessed to have such a great places to live and have family everywhere you turn. I have three brothers living in the two houses next to mine and a great sister sister in law and nieces and nephew for my kids. Nichole is in love with the baby next door. Clancy Bird and Brad really likes the father Jeremy Bird age 23. They love to hang and go shooting and fishing with Curtis and Lewis. So blessed.

Brads birthday

Wow Brad has made it to 17 and he is one piece and happy. He plays football on the varsity team and seems to like it. He makes a lot of contact and gets what he is aiming for. He is such a good kid and so glad he is in my life. I love Bradley James Hanzel.

We have moved to our home. Now we live one house to the south of our old house. It is plenty big for just the four of us. I am enjoying being with the family without the chaos of other people sharing the same house . We can roam free in our pjs and look out the front door and the big windows. I will be sad when the Hills move up the hill in there new house in a couple of weeks. I know they wish they could live closer to the school and work . It's the only decent house they could find. They will use there house for workers and hopefully that will fix the shortage of housing. It is nice having the kids so close to my kids. Well it's been cooling off slowly and I am enjoying that. I think this heat is crazy. It has been in the nineties way to long. Brad will be turning 17 next week. Wow where has the time gone. Well I guess I will get a move on and get ready for work.

Nice day for a drive

We had Maddies birthday. She turned 13 . Such a cutie. Her parents took kimmie to Byu for school and will be back Wednesday . We will keep eye on the three kids next door. They are such good kids. We are officially moving into our new house in six days. Wow won't know what to do with my own house. No traffic upstairs to wake me and covering up like crazy hoping not to run into other guys using stairs or laundry room. The house will be furnished we will pay for labor to have basement finished. It will be great. I have been thankful for our housing do far. I appreciate so much of the good experience of new things. It's been fun traveling to football games which brad plays on with the killdeer high. He has been having great fun and it's so great that the Hills go to all the games to support the boy and school pride. Next two games will be here in killdeer. The busing they have for the football players is one of those luxury buses. With killdeer cowboys logo on the outside of bus, man you would think there was a movie star inside riding. Good times. All is well and looking forward to the cooler days soon. Love me some jacket wearing days.
