Here I thought I was almost done. I could be if the lady I hired would WORK! I let her go because she 'can't' do windows, vacuum or dust or disinfect in high or low places because of her bad back! (What's the point?) She does the dishes and that's about it. She doesn't know where to put them so they get scattered and I can't find anything!!!
Shakeh come home QUICK! I NEED to get the house on the market! Dad is always on the road, the boys are winding up school and revving up the summer basketball season! Nathan is my only hope, and believe it or not, as good as he is, there is just no keeping up with this crew! I REALLY hope Jake will understand!
It's great to hear you enjoyed Sam and Monika's visit. Isn't she GORGEOUS? Isn't he HANDSOME?
It was great to hear the Conte kids are doing so well! WOW! Another year done, PHEW! Can't wait til WE get out!
Nathan was commenting on what a good-looking family we have and how everyone looks when they walk into a place together. It's funny, though how they get so mixed up on who's who. Remember when Nathan spoke in Stk Conf before Cambodia and everyone came up to Sam right after complimenting him on the talk? Sam just played along and let them go on, shaking hands, getting hugs (aw shucks!). It happens all the time. Last Sunday the Rea's were calling to Red & Ammon to come sit with them. Here it was Nathan and Ammon. He just played along with it, too! People get so flustered and confused, the boys have a fun time with it!
Red brought Britney to the movies with us and we were laughing over the phone mix-up again. She's 'just a friend', 'black & white', cute, quiet, TINY and she's a dancer. As Red and Britney drove off, Shea (friend of Noble's) said, "Wow, she's really pretty!" Strater in a 'Curly' mood, said, "Yeah, she's pretty! Pretty SHORT! Nyah, nyah,nyah!" Seems like I'm always having to slap that man!
Later, Nathan and Red were talking about girls and what dating in Utah might be like. Nathan thinks he's pretty smooth playing the gentleman role and will have no troubles. Red said, "Nathan, you are TOO nice and they are gonna walk all over you! You need to be the one wearin' the pants, callin' the shots and in control of the game. You need to be more of an ASS, like me! Believe me, they LIKE it!" Nathan looked over at me and we BUSTED out laughing!
These are the days, my friends & fam! Diamonds in the rough! Love you all! Ellen/Mom
