Kids had a decent summer. Doing nothing much except hanging out with friends. I'm sure everyone knows my drama with my inspection of corn this year, so I won't go into that except to say I am missing it. Courtney and Sarah are sophomores this year, and Ashley is in 7th grade. Our chickens are finally laying eggs and Ashley has made a money jar for the money we get from selling the eggs.
We let them out to eat the bugs and grass. One gal must have thought she was in time out. LOL
I also have been building a small stock pile in the basement of things we go through really fast, so that this winter when or if David gets laid off we don't have to buy things such as sugar, pads, trash bags, noodles... Stuff like that. We have a half of a cow in the freezer already and I just need to get a decent supply of chicken and we will be set.
The Bass Lake store will be closing for the winter at the end of October, then I'll more than likely be moved to the Knox store. At least that is something. Knox is different, they have no food. I do get to do some decorating though. That is so fun. I always miss my regular customers. There are a few that remind me of my grandparents, so sweet and so ornery too. I am sad that I don't get to see them almost every single day. I love to chat with them and my crew of 7 I call the rowdy bunch... They are all older, one couple reminds me of my Grandma Jones with her crazy antics, and they can get quite loud at times. They don't even have to order anymore they all get their regular orders, I save their large table for them, they harass me and I give it right back. I love it. None of the teenagers that work there want to take them because they like things a certain way and tip a buck if you are lucky. But I always take them and love to have them. Even if they never tipped me I would still take them.
Anyways, that's our summer. in a small nutshell.
