Day 38

I was quite surprised when I checked out Julie's blog this morning. For a good time check out Petersen in my list. Those guys are all so silly. I'm so glad that they can have a good laugh even with all they are going through. I hear that Julie's next post will have pictures of Jami's hospital bed rattling down the freeway and the highway patrol following with their lights on. Julie said that it was an escort. I think if the cops could have caught up with her, they sure would have escorted her somewhere.

Dave the drywall guy showed up this morning looking for work. I found some for him. The funny thing is that I had talked to Genja the saleslady just an hour or 2 before that and she said he would be here Thur. Guess that shows what she knows. So if the carpet guy were to show up Thur or Fri............Things are going pretty good. Guess I'd better get rested up so I am ready to move.

This is how last Saturday morning started for Mike. It was free admittance to the dump. That isn't very thrilling to most of you but to us it was pretty exciting. (The proof will follow). We had quite a rain storm Friday night. Our drive was muddy and Mike found out just how soft the edges were.
After Mike let things dry out for a few hours, this was the result. He drove right out.

We had a bunch of old concrete that needed hauled off. It would have cost more than $40 if we'd had to pay for it. And we had half a pine tree to get rid of.

Here we are at the dump.

They had boys from the local youth center help unload all day. I'm sure they ate a very big dinner and then slept very good. We really appreciated not having to unload it ourselves.
