Spring is arriving!

Let’s see… So much has been happening lately, although ‘so much’ around here isn’t that much.

Summer is loving the warm weather that we’re finally getting around here. She spent most of the day yesterday outside. Donna took her over to our friend Tammy’s house to play for a while. She petted the chicks, played with the chickens, fed the horses, picked up sticks in the yard, played in the hay pile, had a picnic. I’m tired just from writing all of that. She had a blast over there. Then she had a bath and a REALLY good nap. Today we went outside and played with the dogs for a while, filled up the bird feeder, moved some rocks. Now she’s sleeping. :) It’d be REALLY nice out if it weren’t for the spring wind around here.

In a couple days Donna’s going to Utah to pick up Kristy, her second oldest granddaughter. She’ll be here for about a week. We’re planning on going over to Tammy’s next thursday since Garry, Tammy’s husband has the day off and Randy should be getting the day off too. It’s going to be a big event. I’m really hoping we can fit in a little horseback riding, too. I really want to take Summer on her first little ride… with lots of pictures, of course. She loves the horses and is completely not afraid of them.

I’m really getting excited for this summer. I’ve just signed the contract with 4 Corners Transport to get my Fiero shipped here. The price is actually about $30 LESS than it was 2 months ago, which is great, every little bit helps. Now, as long as nothing goes horribly awry, like not being able to find a truck willing to go to Maine, I’ll FINALLY have my Fiero out here right around May 27th or so. I have many plans for this summer, too. In August there’s a Fiero rally/ car show in Gunnison, which is only an hour away and there’s a car show here in town in July that’s always really fun to go to and will be even better once I have my car out here to take. I will have an extra week of vacation left for this summer and I think I’m going to take that for the Gunnison show.

Another exciting this this summer… my braces!!! I can’t WAIT for my dentist appointment in June. Then I’ll be able to do my consults and get started!!!!! I have 2 orthodontists to choose from here in town, don’t know which one I’m going to end up using yet. They both do really good work.

Anyway, I’ve gotta get outside and do a little more in my garden before Summer wakes up from her nap. So that’s all for now. My next post will hopefully be very soon saying that I have a truck assigned for my Fiero!
