Hubby needed a break, so he got on the road from WA on 3/31, headed to Missouri to visit friends and fam for a month. He starts back tomorrow. Of course, as it always happens, it's when your right hand man leaves that things start going to craaap. Had a big fight w/ the irrigation company (resolved); needed fencing done (done), but the biggest shocker was that son's GF of 2 years and her 3 kids moved to the ranch. Yes, we have 2 separate homes on the place, thank God. She had a job offer 2 wks ago, started last week, and the whole crew moved over this last weekend. They are good kids, and spent their first day in our small schools in Thorp today. Lexie (9) and Isaiah (13) immediately made new friends and have sports activities planned; Dylan (14) was pleased that it's okay to chew gum in class AND he is the only boy in the 7th grade class. But it will be a whole different dynamic here until everyone is re-situated. Welcome home, Honey!
