Well, the weekend is history!

Three-thirty this morning I was staring at the clock. I guess I am feeling the pressure to get the week going. It's going to be a busy one.

Of course I have the standard MTuWF work schedule. Add to this a Wednesday doctor appointment for Krl (hopefully to get her cast off) and me a Thursday appointment to get my staples out. (If I haven't scratched them out by then.). Between my doctor appointment and arriving to work Friday morning we have some miles to put in.

Thursday afternoon and evening we have to go West to the seasonal jobsite for a little business and pleasure. They are having their annual family fun day and barbecue. The crop insurance deadline for planting this years crop is Wednesday so they are wasting no time celebrating getting the crop in! For most of the area residents this is a welcome activity after a hard and busy time of the year. Of course there are usually a few who cannot attend because they are harvesting their wheat!

It has been six months today that we were last there. It is always interesting to learn of new developments. Last week we learned that the office manager had retired after thirty-five years. We have already heard of new babies and other items of interest.

We were supposed to return in February to go out with our small group from there. After Krl broke her leg, this had to be postponed. In one week it will be the one year anniversary of them coming to Abilene! We miss all of these guys!

Our sources tell us that their irrigated crop has been in the ground for a while and residents were working at planting their dry land crop. Tremendous potential!

I am trying to decide what I am going to walk into at work today. Friday saw Chris with his panties in a wad. Hopefully the weekend will have settled him down some. His mother and I discussed it and I think I have noticed a trend that if we have a really good day sales wise, he sometimes begins to think he is bullet proof and doesn't need any mentoring! His Mom says she thinks last week was because it had been a long hard week and he was tired. May be a combination of all the above.

My Father's Day was laid back. Grilled a little and watched NASCAR (my man didn't win). I had calls from Rian and Ollie. Didn't hear from the other two but that does not surprise me. Obviously the latter two are either doing pretty good (or so they think) and they don't need anything, or else they are to ashamed to come 'round because they haven't owned up to their end of our bargains.

All of this will go into the master formula!

Have a day!

FATHER, I don't know where to begin!
