another day

Yesturday I took half a day off and got boxes for deer processing and went home and cleaned the house. Nick and Clint went out bird hunting, Clint let Nick miss a day so they could spend time together. I went down to switch a load of laundry and realized that I had washed Rachael's bathroom rugs for her so I jumped in my car and brought those over to her house. When I pulled in the driveway there was a guy on a tractor fixing fencing and another guy with a pick up load of wood that he was going to throw in the basement. When I entered the house there were 2 more guys in the basement catching and stacking wood and Rachael had to run to town to go to an appointment so another friend of Ron's was on his bedside talking to him. I walked in and said hi and everyone was just smiles. Ron had just gotten in from outside his friend Dan Picht pushed him around in the wheel chair so he could get a piece of the beautiful weather and to see what everyone has been doing for them. It is just amazing how giving and kind people are to friends in need. It was very enjoying to see the kindness in every ones face. I left and went back home and Nick and Clint had showed up shortly after I did. Nick was so excited because he shot 4 porcipinines and a rabbit. As he told me the story Clint got on the phone with the fur buyer and asked how much money he would get for his beaver hides. $13.00 a piece. So we loaded them up and headed up to Spring Lake. What a drive. I just love it up North. The boys and I had a great time. We had great conversations. We stopped at Richie's in Marcell and had a beer and Nick got a bit to eat. I called the girls when they got home to see how school was and to let them know that we were out selling the furs, so when I got home Hannah and Shelley has the hamburger ground and ready for spaghetti. Clint made the sauce and it was soooo good. The the phone rang. It was my girlfriend Holly she was crying, her mom was going to the hospital because they think she had a stroke. She need to bring the boys over. I said that is fine. I talked to her this morning and it sounds like they found an aneurysm on her brain. They got to Duluth at 3am so she is going to call me later today. When one thing is getting better it seems like there is something bad right behind it. Please pray for Norma and Holly. Holly needs the Lords strength to help her through this. I will post news as I hear it... God bless
