Hmm, well here I am.

I slept like a rock last night and I actually woke up feeling rested. Not that it was a dreamless heavy sleep...that rarely happens. It was a strange one. I dreamed that mom and I were once again going to Uncle Ted's funeral, but it was really far away. We stopped at a store in Iowa and one of my managers from high school was running it...with his wife. I then left mom there at the store, where they threw a large potluck bash for us, and went on to the funeral alone:S Strange, so strange. Brenna entered her 4-H cooking this morning. She made some adorable little puppy cupcakes and I believe I saw a purple ribbon hanging on them:) I didn't get in on any of the cooking adventures since I worked yesterday. It all turned out nice though, such a good mom we have. I love you mom!! We nabbed Margaret and Clara to get the horse stalls partially decorated. It was so fun, can't you tell?:) The red, white and blue theme turned out very nice. Just enough to look nice and not get gaudy.

So sad to work alone. I have missed my Backbone co-workers this week. I survived, but I'll be glad to have them back soon. Right after work tonight I ran through Emily's drive-thru and sped over to the fairgrounds for the 4-H dog show. I made it there just in time to watch Brenna and Stella perform all they've learned this year. For Brenna and Stella, they did great! They both enjoyed showmanship over obedience because they did better:) So proud of my girls. I'm amazed that is already August of this year. They year is half over!! Wow crazy! Alissa
