After some searching Paulina has found a house she could really learn to love with some more work it will be everything she ever dreamed it could be. As I told you before she was buying it from a couple of Barbies. They decided that with everything else they had going on they didn't have the time and lets face it, the money to finish what they started. After Paulina saw it she had to see the inside. She saw so much more potential. So I checked it out with her. After some time I told her I could help her finish what was started years ago. I told her I could help add on a bedroom and a kitchen if she would like. I warned her it could take some time to get it finished. She told me that things that take time to get done right the first time are always worth waiting for. After finally getting a hold of the Barbies again, she signed the papers. The Barbies then climbed into their pink car with their dogs and drove away smiling and waving. I could have sworn I heard one of then say ...

It's Saturday after Thanksgiving and all is quiet here for me. It just did not feel like Thanksgiving this year. For one thing once again no snow for the hunters. This is the first year that the husband has not yet gotten a deer with the gun. He has not even seen one. Two of his brothers have not gotten any either. I don't think the deer population is as big as the DNR tries to make people believe. Or maybe the deer have just gotten smarter. Because there is no snow the deer can lie down in the tall grass and are hard to find. My Mom told me of a guy who was sitting in a tree stand, during bow season, when he saw a big buck start to come his way. As he was watching it hoping it would come closer he heard someone else start coming toward him and the deer. He watched as that deer lied down as flat as it could with only it's horns sticking up. Then he watched the people walk within a couple feet of the deer and they never saw it. Boy I bet he wishes he had a video camera. That...

When Paulina agreed to stay for awhile I thought it was best to introduce her to some of the others already living here. The first one she was able to meet was Cletus. He wanted to shake hands with her right away and tried to push her off the chair. The next one she met was Minnie Me. Minnie don't look like she is very happy about Paulina. Time will tell how these two will get along. The next one to meet was Jazz. As far as I can tell he approves of Paulina. Then she met Fawn. By the look on her face I'm not sure Fawn wants to be very close to Paulina. In fact after I took this picture Fawn jumped down and just looked at her from a distance. Paulina was very excited when she met everyone and she knows in time they will all become good friends.

I usually don't write on a Friday but I have the day off. It was a voluntary day. I could have worked if I wanted to work on the line but I just needed to have a three day weekend for once. If it is the same next Friday I will work no matter what. It is slow for this time of year. But it does happen from time to time. Other factories are also slow around here. It's hard everywhere. I'm just hoping things will start turning around for the whole country soon. But I know it will more long months then people have patients for. Anyway last Sunday before I went to the baby shower this is what we saw out the window. They would have been there longer but the oldest one decided at that moment to go out side and feed something to the dog. There were about a dozen of them. They still show up from time to time. I just wonder how much I'll see them this winter. Here a couple of pictures from the shower. This Baby Shower sign was the only thing telling you it was a Baby Shower. ...
