Topic: Hump Day
Things are well..... weather is rainy, but at this point, it is the best I can hope for, with moose hunting season here.... moose like it colder.

Our summer has sucked, just like the summer of 2008.  We will go into winter whining that we had a sucky summer.  oh well.  We can always hope for a better one next year!!!


Hope everyone is well & is getting their summer chores & projects done, and getting ready for the up & coming winter.



Have a GREAT day!!!!

No lurkers going to respond?? 

Guess I am the only one here for most of the week.  DH's dad is ok, they released him from the hospital, and he has to stick around Standford for about 10 more days.  Then he will be able to be home and recover more.  Glad he has pulled through this.

Sounds like you have some fun times in store for you & your family, Michelle!!!  Glad you get to get away & relax, too!!!  We have only been out just the one time this year & I sure hope we get to go out at least one more time (heck I am hoping for 2 times!!! -- But that depends on the weather & snowfall)

Next Tuesday is opening of archery moose hunting, and DH also flies out for his caribou in a week..... He will be busy, but a good kind of busy, cause he likes killing stuff!!!  And, I am behind him & supportive of his hobbies, I LIKE that he likes to provide for me & hunter, that is one of the traits that attracted me, when were dating!!!!  Gonna be a busy couple of weeks, but a good busy!!! 

I will keep you posted on DH's dad.  I am thinking he should be discharged some time today, and then they have to still stay down in the Stanford area for another week or two, but, then they will drive the 4 hours home & will be working on recovering & going foward in their lives TOGETHER!!!!


Have a GREAT weekend!!!

WoooHooo 8 hrs to go and I'm on vacation!!!   Can you tell I'm excited.   This weekend will be getting things ready for our camping trip on Monday.   We will be gone 3 nights and 4 days.   I have a sneaking suspicion there's a bday party coming too within the next 2 wks for me.  It's my 40th at the end of the month and my sister and hubby are acting weird.  I'm just looking forward to some relaxing.  After we get back my sister will be here for a week camping in our area so we'll have lots of time to do fun things. (not the sister who's moving)  It's my son's 18th bday on the 17th too.  Sadie of course is already talking about her birthday now lol.   It's not until the end of Oct. 

Jamie, glad to hear things are going well for your father in law.   I sure hope he continues to progress well.    Hopefully your freezer will be full for the winter as well.  

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Wow, Michelle!!  Very tough news to swallow!!  But, there is always the telephone!!

Doing good here.  DH came home from fishing & filled our freezer with fish for the winter.  Saturday, he has a "hunting safety" course to go to, for the moose draw out on the base, that he got.  Archery moose opens the 10th.  He will be flying out for his caribou in 10 days, as well.  So, this hunting season, I will be a 'hunting widow' twice!!  This is always the BUSy time of year for us.  Not too sure how he has everything planned out, guess it is time to firm up what he has planned!!!  HA HA.  All I know, is that I get up, get ready, get Hunter ready, and then drop him off at daycare, and I go to work!!! 

DH's dad is doing good, he is still in the hospital, but his blood counts are coming back better, and he made 3 laps around the hallways yesterday!!  So, hopefully, if they do not discharge him tomorrow, he should be discharged Friday, which is exactly on their target, from the stem cell transplant he just went through.


Have a GREAT day!!!!

Well here we are on Wed already.   I have a 10 hr day today and 9 tomorrow and Fri then I'm off for 9 days.   We're going camping next week.   It should be a lot of fun.   I got some news from my sister that's been tough for me to swallow.   My sister whom I am the closes to has decided to move away to Georgia.  I hope it works for her and she's happy but I'll be sad.  I'll be going down to where she now lives at the end of the month to visit and say my see ya laters.  

Hope everyone is doing well.   Enjoy the summer or what's left of it!

Sounds like FUN plans, Michelle!!!

I am a "fishing widow" for the weekend.  DH is out with his buddys fishing in Kenai & Seward.  One of his friends, who used to live up here, and moved to Colorado about 4 years ago, is up visiting.  So, they are catching up with each other & fishing!!
Then, it will be on to the moose, and caribou killing!!  August will be a busy month, for getting our meat in the freezer for the winter!! 

Update on my father-in-law... he had his stem-cell transplant last friday & is doing ok.  The people down at Stanford University said for him to expect to be hospitalized about 5 days after the initial transplant, because that is how the majority of stem-cell transplant patients do, the get sick, and then, get hospitalized, and then, once they are better, they are released.  The people at Stanford University said that DH's dad will not have to have chemo for 7 years!!!  By that time, he will be 75!!

So, it has been bumpy, busy & stressful, but we are all plugging along the best we can!!!

Well, it seems we're all busy these days.   Not many posts.   I'm very glad it's Friday.  It's been a long week but I have a 3 day weekend now so that'll be nice.   We're heading out of town this afternoon and will be back Sun evening.   I hope it's a nice relaxing weekend. 

Sadie is doing great.   Swim lessons are really great.   We noticed last night that she's really picked up a lot in these 6 weeks.   I think we're signing her up for another session as well.   Next week is the last one for this session.  

Next week I work 4 days and then we're off for 9 and are going camping.  

Hope everything is doing well!

OK OK I'm not lurking.   Man this summer has been just crazy!!   I barely have time to sleep ugghhh.   Things are going well here other than being insanely busy.   I just had a great weekend away with just the girls.   I've never once thought about it but realized it was the first time I'd left Sadie overnight at all let alone a whole weekend.   I was not worried one bit and enjoyed myself very much.  I went with my sister and two friends to Country Jam...we shared a hotel room and just had a great girls weekend.  We leave again on Friday for another weekend away.   We are going to visit my husband's cousin on Friday evening and have a bbq at their house...we haven't seen them for 8 or 9 yrs.   We're all very excited.   After that we're going to stay the rest of the weekend with his aunt and uncle.   I just love love love these people.   Sunday DH and uncle have tickets to the MN Twins game so us girls will either just hang out or go shopping.   Then I have Monday off as well and my sister will be in town with a friend.   Thankfully next weekend we'll be home but then we leave that Monday to go camping just the 3 of us.   It'll be great.   We both have the whole week off.   My sister and her family will be here for the full week after that when we get back.  I have sneaking suspicion that there's a birthday party in the works for me sometime that week though.   I turn 40 on Aug 29th and I just know they won't let that one go by unnoticed.

Glad to see you post Jamie!!  Hope you're enjoying your summer.  

Court, we are missing you!!!  Hope things are well for you.
