Another busy week and weekend have finally been completed.. It was time for the fair here in town. This is always a busy week for us, as Dave usually works lots at a food booth, yet this week seemed to fly by quickly.
I have a fair post all in itself. I had many realizations while spending obsene amounts of money with strangers with very little teeth and smaller amounts of clothing than I have saw in years.
Also, this past week, I keep looking at Eli and noticing how tall he is getting. Still skinny, yet so tall. He is eye level with his sweet daddy. Keep in mind, this kid is only 13, he will end up being 7'5 or something. Right now, he is pushin' 6 feet. How does that happen? Is it the expired milk I keep in the fridge?
Tomorrow is another day of work.
I was off this past Friday. We seemed to have a basement full of water. Water, in fact, from the flooding THE PREVIOUS WEEK. The water went unnoticed by me, and most of the family. I think that a combination of work, school, kids and stress, and that wild summer virus that ran thru the house caused me to not consider the fact that we do have a basement and water is quite possibly residing in it. So, imagine my suprise when on Thursday morning, right before work, I noticed a stinky, mildew-y odor floatin' around the kitchen. And when I opened the basement door, I saw where it was coming from. Lots of stinky, yucky water was hanging out. Dave put the fan down there, hoping to dry it up, but all it got us was a basement with a creek running in it. The majority of my stuff is in plastic containers, but there is some stuff, like my christmas stuff, that is in cardboard boxes. Because we keep having rain, we keep having more water. I am hoping to get it cleaned out this week. If not, we can start our own penicillin factory down below.
