Tedious and Boring!!

So, life right now seems like more of a grind than an adventure!! Work hours suck, too many hours, and too many closing shifts!! I sit here, it is 12:38am in the morning..... I should be in bed, but am still trying to wind down. No days off with Duane this week, he's off Tues, Wed and Thurs, I am off Mon and Fri, go figure. Next week is better, we have Thurs off together!! WOW! The only reason that happened is because I have to take Dad to the doctor. His rash on his hind end is getting better, but he keeps making it worse by wiping too hard!! I think I may have found a secret weapon, vaseline!! Go figure, the fancy cure-all creams that are at our disposal, and vaseline is the best so far!! Winter is coming, like it or not, I don't like it at all!! I will be glad to move, at least it is sunny more over on the other side of the mountain more than it is here!! If Duane's job is still there, we plan to put this place back up for sale and get over there next year. We will see!! Well, I had better get to bed, at this rate I will want to sleep until 10am, and I have to be to work at 2pm, and want to spend some time with Duane before I leave. At least on Thursday I don't have to be in until 4:30pm, so maybe we can at least go out to lunch together!! Ho hum!!!!

Back home again!!
















We went over to Duane's folk's on Sunday afternoon, came home yesterday afternoon. We went up and worked on our property until Duane broke the pick axe handle, so had to quit a little sooner than we planned. But, we did get some more brush cleaned up in the back area, so that is good!! Anything helps! We took his Mom to Prineville to meet with the cabinet guy, and to a flooring decor place to look at carpet and linoleum. She got saturated pretty fast, heck, it was giving me a headache too, all the choices, and trying figure out what would go together!! We went into Bend, had lunch and went to their lot to see the progress. They should be in their new house by sometime in December. Here's a picture of their lot, they have the foundation started. Also, some cute pictures of the dogs, Tuco got a surprise on his doggie door a while back, a little tree frog decided to crawl up on it, and Tuco didn't quite know what to think!! I am glad the camera was handy to catch it.
