Back in the Real World

It took most of Monday for me to get back into the swing of things at the work place. I managed to get through the day without any mishaps. A really nice thunderstorm came through late in the afternoon and dumped various amounts of rain in our area. Back Forty only got 20 points whereas the neighboring ranch got 80 points. As much as 2.25 was reported on the opposite side of the county. Every little bit is greatly appreciated!

Tuesday promises to be much busier with mid-year reports due. Yahoo.

Little Town is still busy with summer visitors. I catch myself growling when I try to get out of the parking lot onto Main Street. I'm doing good if I recognize one out of every ten vehicles I meet on the street. Good for the economy so I best not bitch too much about the traffic. Hunters are beginning to trickle in to check on their leases and make sure the feeders are being tended to. Our hunters are from Louisana so it is easier for them to pay Mike to keep the feeders full until they start making their trips to the Back Forty in October.

Construction crews are on Interstate repairing guardrail on a bridge that spans the river. I noticed this morning that the crew members are using safety harnesses which makes me wonder if they ever consider actually testing the harnesses and do a little "bungee jumping". Probably not but it gives me something to think about when I drive through the construction zone.

Oh, and the plumbing project that began on Saturday afternoon has now been completed. Took a lot of patience and colorful language but the leak has been repaired in the master bathroom. I don't think Sam is eager to do any more plumbing in the near future.

I plan on posting wedding pictures if not late today then hopefully tomorrow. Phone is ringing and people are wanting this and that. Sigh. I am back in the real world.
