I don't know if anyone's been reading this nor not, but for anyone that has, and has been praying for my MIL, she passed away today.

Prayers for your family

Such sad news. I have been reading along faithfully for a long time now. I am sorry for your loss.

 

[Denim Deb]

Thanks, guys. I'm not making a list for today. Other than 4-H and feeding the animals, I don't know what all I need to do today.

My condolences Deb, for your mother-in-law

 

[Denim Deb]

Thanks. The funeral is Wednesday morning. We're having the viewing first. Then, we're hoping to get her apartment all cleaned out on Thursday and Friday.

I don't know how much I'm going to actually get done on my stuff. But, I'm going to try. So, I'll be making a list at least today and tomorrow. After that, I'm not sure what all I'm doing. It doesn't help that RU is going away for the latter half of the week. I had hoped she'd be able to feed for me on Wednesday. But, she won't be home. KN is going to see if she can feed. If she can't, then I'll have to ask PT. And, if she can't. I'm going to have to run over there early-like around 6:30 AM to feed. So, my list for today:

1. Fold up and put away laundry (done)
2. Practice piano (done)
3. Wash a load of shirts (they're in the washer now)
4. Work on living room
5. Feed animals
6. Clean field (it hasn't been done for a few days is is horrible looking! But, I'll have the truck, so I'll be hooking the cart up to it and dumping it a few times)
7. Feed Stormy, bag feed, put out hay and take care of chickens
8. Get a load of wood
9. Feed goats
10. Fill wood holder in basement ( won't be cutting any today, I'll be using what I already have cut and split that's burnable)
11. Feed goats
12. Make and eat dinner
13. Wash dishes
14. Sort and put away a ton of socks
15. Collapse

I just noticed, I put feed the goats down 2x. They only got fed once, though knowing them, I'm sure they wouldn't have minded if they had been fed 2x.

I have a feeling I'm not going to get much done this week. Hubby hadn't been going to take off work until Wednesday. He doesn't get paid time off. I thought he did for the death of a near relative, but he says no. So, he went in to work for just a bit-then came home. So, I didn't get my load of wood today. He wanted to work on the truck. I haven't been able to work in the living room, and don't know that I'll be able to tonight. And, I haven't done the dishes. Dinner was left overs. I also haven't sorted the socks.

However, on the plus side, my field is clean again! It took a bit, but I finally figured out the best way to hook the cart up to the truck. And, I got started on cleaning out my truck. I'm hoping to get that done tomorrow. I may make chocolate chip banana bread tonight. I've been wanting to do it, just haven't had the time.

So sorry Deb for your loss. sending prayers for your family.

Thanks.

The funeral was today, and I'm glad it's over. I don't know what the next couple of days will bring. After the funeral, we went to a restaurant. I don't think either my DS, my parents or myself were overly impressed w/it. We all had trouble finding something on the menu we wanted to eat. Plus, my son and I both got coffee. They never asked if we wanted a refill, and the cups were small!

Got home, read for a bit, then crashed. Then went to the farm. I would have loved to have stayed there tonight. It was a beautiful sunset, and it's not supposed to be that cold tonight. But, it's supposed to rain tomorrow, so that wouldn't be good.

I'm hoping to get to bed early tonight. And, I'm hoping I can get something done tomorrow.
