August 8 & 9, 10, 2010

Sunday 8~~~~Today was a pretty busy day at the camp ground, we had 13 sites to clean. We stayed pretty busy all day and we drove into Salem this evening rather late. I am having the shop girls over for cards and dinner tomorrow night. Kent is going to go to a movie and out for dinner. Monday 9~~~~What a busy day today, I babysat Bodie and Blaize while Tress went to the Dr. this morning to have her stitches taken out. Cory dropped her off at my house to visit for awhile as he had to hurry home to get ready for work. After lunch the kids wanted to go for one of our long walks we do together when they are at my house; we left Tress sitting with her foot up and a big glass of water and a stack of magazines to read. When we got home from our walk, I started fixing dinner for my party tonight, Tress helped me by sitting on a chair and cutting up the vegetables for my salad. The kids love to play downstairs, so we got to visit while we worked. When Kent got home from Portland, he took Tress and the kids home about 4PM so I could finish last minute things for dinner and get ready. The shop girls are coming over at 5 PM so I had to hurry. I just got dressed and was putting on some makeup when the door bell rang, it was my son Bill stopping by to show me a couple of new baby kittens he had just received from the agency that takes in kittens and finds homes to keep them until they are old enough to adopt or well enough. My son and his girls have saved 27 baby kittens by being care takers until they are adopted by good families. We visited for awhile before I had to chase him away so I could finish dinner preparations. One of the shop girls couldn't come, so I called my friend Beth to sub for her, she had a great time and we decided to meet once a month, Beth is having it at her house in September. The girls enjoyed my simple dinner of a chicken and rice soup, salad and hot bread. I served a white cake with white frosting and strawberries for dessert after we played the first game of cards. We had a lot of fun playing cards and visiting with each other before it was time for the working girls to go home. Beth was one of my hair clients, so she and the girls knew each other real well, in fact, she still goes to the shop to have her hair done by Nancy. I look forward to playing cards again with them in September. Tuesday 10~~~~I baked Kent a rhubarb pie today to take to the park, he really likes them and I have found I like them also, especially with ice cream. YUM YUM Kent went to the park early as he had thin gs he wanted to do, so we drove two cars up there again. I took Bodie to his guitar lesson again today as Tress can't drive yet. I stayed and visited with her when I dropped off Bodie on my way to the park. I found out Kent and some park hosts went out for pizza tonight when I got to the park and I missed out on it. That is OK with me, as I don't need all those calories and Kent loves his pizza and the calories don't seem to affect him any.
