Weekend Plans

Well, Quentin started softball again on Friday nights. His team won this week. Quentin struggled with hitting, but otherwise did really well. It's always fun to watch him play along with all the other family that is playing.

Saturday was a busy day for us. We had to feed Mom's animals again today. We can't wait for them to get back in town. We had to pick them up at the airport this evening and they were so excited to see the boys. I'm so glad that they have such a great relationship with my boys. There's not a day that goes by that they don't call to check on the boys. We thankful for all of the support. Today we also celebrated Reagann's birthday. We had hotdogs, cake and icecream at Chad & Heather's house. There were lots of people and I think Reagann got lots of gifts. We did miss some of the family, but maybe we'll see them tomorrow at the July birthday lunch. We will have the birthday lunch at Beverly's house. Quentin and the boys went with Eric and Tyler to the races tonight. They have enjoyed hanging out with Eric and Tyler and I have enjoyed the quiet time with Sean. It's nice to be somewhat alone at home when you normally have 4 other people in the house. It never fails that someone always wants something or the boys are fighting or all of the "boys" are wrestling. Man, it's nice to not listen to all of that.

We ended our week at work with some good news. Our new firm has decided to give all of the support staff a bonus payable after the 1st of January. It's not anything to do cartwheels over, but at least it is something. I'm very thankful that I work for a wonderful boss who is going to give me a portion of his bonus. It will be nice to have "extra" money. I have been really fortunate to work where I do and work with the people that I do. It can be such a stressful job, but I have always been fairly compensated which makes dealing with the stress a little easier.

Well, it's almost 10:00 and everyone knows that at 10:00 I turn into a pumpkin, so I guess Sean and I will go to bed. Until next time.........
