Long Weekend

Well, she survived.  No thanks to the warden of course.  Yes, I Leah, was the Warden.  While we were in Marshall I was very particular about how long she could be up and moving around and such.  It was pretty easy to do and I can tell by looking at her when she's done too much.  Her right side begins getting very lazy and sagging.  The week was pretty busy.  She started off on Thursday in Milwaukee, Friday to Marshall, then Sunday to Red Oak Iowa.  That's about a cross country trip in one weekend.  She enjoyed seeing a lot of family and friends and didn't seem to over do it too much but she's certainly feeling it now.  

I'm off this week, so my plan was to have her at my house during the day until Drexel got off the bus, because now he gets off at her house.  I would hate to confuse the school anymore.  I'm not mad anymore, but I am trying to keep it simple.  Plus if she's here I can get stuff here done way better than I can at her house.   So, I'm trying to do both.  I'm here if she wants to go somewhere.  Tomorrow we're going to the elevator for free food from Farm Credit Services.  I love my friends.  They'll probably put me to work though.  Oh well, it's all for my farmer friends and will give mom a chance to see some people in town. 

Anyway - keep those comments coming she loves hearing from you and I think we have her strapped down for now. Keeping her home for a while at least.  Visitors are welcome.

Someone has to be the "bad guy" and Leah you were chosen!!! I am glad you take such good care of your MOM!! What would she do w/out you?
I am looking forward to seeing Lois tomorrow late afternoon. Will I get to see you and Drexel, too? Hope so.
Love, Charlotte :)
