Will Life Ever Slow Down?

Our life the last week or so was much the same as always….. Eat, Sleep, Work, Repeat! But hey, we’re young, healthy, and full of energy (at least we pretend, we are) so why not be busy and on the go?!

I only worked at K-Tec on Monday last week plus a couple hours the rest of the days, so the rest of my time was spent catching up at home! Mowing the jungle was #1 on the list then cleaning the house, baking, and sewing all fell into place at #2! I got the yard mowed, dishes done and upstairs cleaned. The best thing though, was that I got 1 Sunday dress done and another one that just needs the hem! I can’t even remember the last time I had a new Sunday dress!!

Of course Saturday was Farmer’s Market, so up at 5:00, in Winnipeg by 6:15 and there until 3:30. We had to do a little shopping afterwards too, so by the time we were home we were both dead tired!

… all the above was written yesterday! Since then we went out for supper with Russ & Meletta and Alisa and Kyla. Alisa is leaving for Edmonton next week, so we wanted to be with her one more time. (Russ is one of the owners of K-Tec.) We got home around 11:00, and I found out I had to have 4 big porkloins smoked, pulled, and ready to go by lunch today!! So Kelly went to bed and I got the meat ready and on the smoker. Finally got to sleep around 1:30! Then I was back up at 7:30 to start working with them again! Well, I went out on the deck where the smoker was, and someone or something had been on the deck and took the lid off the smoker!! So guess what, the top rack of loins was quite dried out! Needless to say, I was very grumpy! But it’s for at the island so I decided I’d just add some marinade and BBQ sauce to it when we warm it up.

By the time I finally had the meat taken care of and 4 batches of BBQ sauce made it was time to make lunch. Charlie, Ben, Danielle, and Jess were coming, so whipped up some pizza and got Kelly to pick up ice cream for dessert.

So ya… I am now having a lazy afternoon! Well except for doing laundry and cutting out a dress (actually have it almost done)! J
