I cheated and skipped a day! sry...haha.
So I will start with yesterday. We did chores as usual and then we all got ready to go hay. Tina and Merle went out with the rake and baler to try to put up the hay that was too dry the night before, and Jeff and I were supposed to cut hay in the next field up by the hisle dam pasture. I had to run around and finish a few odds and ends, grab some water, and fuel up the tank before heading out to the windrower. It took me almost an hour to service and grease, then I was on my way. Jeff came later with the hyra-swing after fixing some fence and having trouble with a dead battery on the tractor. We cut hay until noon when I decided I had better head in to get ready to go home. I brought Jeff to another pickup so that he had transportation, then I went to pick up Merle and Tina in the other field. The three of us ate a quick dinner, then they headed back to the field and I went in to get ready. I still needed to pack, take care of my horse, and clean some things up around the house.
I finally pulled out of the driveway at about 3:15 and headed east. I actually managed to pass Merle and Tina on my way! It took about five hours to make it back to Baltic. It was a pretty uneventful drive, although I did realize that I had better start using my blinker and stopping at stop signs! haha...oops. It was really nice to come home and see all of the crops growing up so tall. It's really hot, humid, and wet here...not so good for hay, but not so bad for the crops. Guess you win some and you lose some.
As soon as I made it home I went let Olluv (the dog) out and played with him for a while! He's lots of fun and really cute, I love Katie, but I missed Olluv:) After I unpacked a few things, I decided to go visit my aunt. I stayed at her place for a couple hours catching up on the Baltic news and what I missed...didn't sound like much. Then, I went home and Virginia met me there about the same time. We chatted for a bit and then headed to bed.
This morning I had a chiropractor visit (which was quite amazing I might add) and then stopped by Mom and Johns. After my stop there I went home, picked up Virginia and we went to Dells to get my lovely Hep A shot for a trip I'm taking to Argentina later in the school year. After that hour long visit we went to the Pizza Ranch for some tasty lunch. We spent the rest of the early afternoon in town running errands and then came home and have been trying to get some things done aroud the house since then. Otherwise, not much has happended thus far. Tomorrow will be a full day! It's nice to be home for a couple days.
