We had a lovely weekend at my house. It started Saturday morning with breakfast with a friend. I then came home to a clean house. (I woke up at 2:30 AM to clean it-that’s a different story for a different day!) Later, Joshua and the kids went and scouted out a nice picnic spot. It was so fun picnicking on our farm. I can’t believe we haven’t done this before. The kids ran around and played while my honey and I relaxed. Later that evening we went to church. Afterwards we went to one of my favorite restaurants of all times, Joe Bolognas.
Sunday was almost just as nice. There was one glitch to Sunday. We had a hen who has been suffering. We decided that the most humane thing would be to “put her out of her misery”. That was terrible! I hope I never have to do that again. My husband conducted a funeral under the black walnut tree, which has become our pet cemetery. I didn’t attend the event, feeling somewhat faint after the ordeal, but my husband told me that all the other chickens came and paid their respects.
Joshua practiced bow shooting with the kids while I organized my desk. Then we went shopping and out to eat again. We did our part to keep the economy afloat this weekend. This coming week will be a very busy one for my husband, so it was good to have a relaxing weekend. It was the calm before the storm.
Sorry I didn’t get a column written this week. I was too busy relaxing with my family.
