He's of the colour of the nutmeg. And of the heat of the ginger.... he is pure air and fire; and the dull elements of earth and water never appear in him, but only in patient stillness while his rider mounts him; he is indeed a horse, and all other jades you may call beasts. ~William Shakespeare, Henry V

RAMBLING

It's starting to slow down at work now since many of the farmers here have started harvest. It's a nice break from all the chaos when people come in for chemical, have machinery fixed, welding, or looking for nuts and bolts.

I feel bad. Because of work, I didn't get Cassidy into swimming lessons this year. I really wanted her to go. Hopefully next year, if I am still working for Mollers Inc., I can arrange something with my boss so that I can be off work early over the two weeks that swimming lessons are going on. I am hoping by then though that I will be doing medical transcription out of my house.

I took Thursday and Friday off from work because I was supposed to go to the Jeff Dunham show in Fargo. Unfortunately, the friend I was supposed to go with had some employees quit, so he ended up covering their shifts and wasn't going to be able to go. He gave away our tickets to see the sold out show to another friend. I was really bummed, but hopefully I will have another chance to see Jeff Dunham live.

I need to get my butt out and start halter breaking our colt. He is now well over a month old. The fart is getting pretty big. I don't want him to get too much bigger before I begin to drag him around the pasture. I still haven't taken any recent picture of him, which I will have to do soon.

I have had the girls the last few weekends in a row. Darren isn't working in Rolette anymore. He got a job in Minot and was waiting to find a place to live in Minot before he picked up the girls again. I am hoping that he is all settled by this weekend. Rainy and I have plans to spend this coming weekend at Lake Ashtibula out by Valley City. It's going to be just Rainy, myself, and her two boys. I cannot wait!! I haven't been out camping in a long time, and I love to camp!!
