* Last Sunday we thought Ryan was going to have to work {which is rare on a Sunday} and we both woke up feeling HORRIBLE, so that was a bad combo! Halfway through the morning, we got a text from his boss saying he didn't have to come in. We were so grateful!
We thoroughly enjoyed our day of true rest - our favorite breakfast sammiches from Subway, a fun trip through a model home {never done anything like that before} and of course - STARBUCKS.
* Monday one of our listeners/my friends stopped by the station with 2 boxes of Rise n Rolls. Ummmmm THANK YOU!!!!!! Thoroughly savored every bite of that unexpected treat. After work, Ryan went to help one of his friends load busted concrete into a dump truck {this was actually fun for them, I am told}. When he got home,
we enjoyed dinner in the pirogi - in the rain! It was one of those lovely, gentle rains...so calming.
* Tuesday,
I could not wake up! I was already on another cup of coffee by the time
Mid-Morning began. And even that didn't do it.
Lynne brought a treat for Ryan and I to share...the best key lime pie in the world. I couldn't even finish my piece, if that tells you how rich and wonderful it was! We enjoyed our night at home - and I watched my next Beth Moore Bible study - loving all I'm learning!
* Wednesday night was
our first night to visit the Howard County Fair. FRIED FOOD!! Ryan enjoyed his sampling of stuff - and I made short work of a walking taco...and then we shared an elephant ear. Ryan kissed a pig, because, well, why wouldn't he? And we spent some time walking around the midway with our friend Shawn and his kids. Lines were WAY too long to ride that night. We have to channel all our patience toward home sale, not lines for rides.
* Thursday started out pretty well...and then...oh the Shafferland drama. Ryan and I were driving home {separately, of course} from work, talking on the phone, when he told me
his car had just died. Like DIED. It happened to occur not far from my parents' house, so Dad went over, and then Ryan's mom and cousin showed up, and in true it-takes-a-village form, they hauled the car away. It's a much longer story than this shuffle has time to tell. But look at this husband of mine. Still smiling even with a dead car and very reorganized night.
* Friday night,
we went back to the fair for one last hurrah...we walked around with our friends Troy and Cilicia and their kids...and they even got me into the petting zoo and close to the animals! We watched an old fashioned combine hard at work and got a few last fair treats - including Ryan's favorite sirloin tips!
* Yesterday was my third time {Ryan's second} to
work the Peterson Scholarship Golf Outing in Fort Wayne. We're not really golf people, but Lynne's husband has spearheaded the outing these last 3 years and has asked me to be the photographer. We were CERTAIN we were getting rained on this year because the radar showed this HUGE wall of water coming at us...but it DID NOT rain. Amazing. Ryan had fun driving the golf cart, and I had fun taking pics!

This looks like a bit of a crazy week, especially with the car dying, not being able to wake up on Tuesday (I've had days like that!), and a few nights at the fair.
