Yep, here I am awake @ 3 am again...thankfully I am not waking every morning exactly @ 3:30 am anymore; now it varies anywhere from 2:30 - 5:30! Wonderful. The difference is that now I seem to have this uncontrollable hunger that must be satisfied shortly after waking. Although I guess I'm a slow learner because without a doubt I will get up, pee, go back to bed, lie there for a little while, then finally realize that I really have to get up and eat/drink something! I'll figure it out one of these mornings.
I invested in this big pink polkadot fuzzy robe & I am certain that it is one of God's most beautiful creations. It really is one of the wonders of the world! I am not being overly ecstatic when I say that it is sooooo soft & comfy that I could almost wear it all the time. Actually, I have been wearing it prettymuch all the time since I got it - to Ryan's great dismay...sorry, but this is not the last we'll be seeing of the big fuzzy pink robe.
Yesterday Ryan's work crew had a BBQ picnic in the park to celebrate their 5 years in business & to get all the employees & their families together. It was a really nice gathering. Much better than those white trash Holm Automotive functions we used to go to! Just goes to show that your momma was always right to say that the people you hang out with reflect on you & your good/bad choices! It makes a big difference in the quality of the gathering when you surround yourself with people of quality. I am not saying that some people are more worthy of a certain status than others, I am just saying that some people have much lower standards for what they believe is fun. It's a totally different crowd when you gather a bunch of people who are obviously on this planet to seek knowledge & empower others than when you gather a bunch of people who are just here to get drunk & bad mouth their co-workers as if they've never moved past puberty!
We are getting a little farther on the organization/settling in thing with the house. We got sprinklers now, yea, & our grass is not far off! They should be putting in our sod in another couple of weeks. Ryan worked in the basement yesterday & we prettymuch have everything put away down there. He tried to clean up some of the sheetrock dust & the filter fell off his shop vac & made an even bigger mess of the house...there was a cloud of dust upstairs that looked like the Dust Bowl was making its way through our home. Of course the downstairs was like a fog. But, got that fixed & made a dent in the issue...then he got out the mop & started cleaning the floors & I think that really helped a lot! Now that all the dirt has settled I need to go back & re-clean everything...have I ever mentioned that I really HATE dust!?! It's good to finally get things where they belong. Now, if we can just sell the house in Abilene so we can bring the rest of our furniture down then that would be great!

On Saturday we went back out to the farm. Another beautiful fall day. We met Ryan's cousin & his girlfriend & her son out there & we hung out & rode the fourwheelers through the trees. Brandon drove his truck through the pond...it had to be done! We built a fire pit & a little bench in this open area under the Walnut trees. We can't wait to get back out there & roast some weenies & marshmallows! Ryan took the chainsaw to a few trees back in the creek & made some awesome trails! Again, we can't wait for the time when all our friends & family can come out and share in the beautiful, peaceful, relaxing environment.
Semper fi!
