Saturday morning Joel was up & adam by 7:30 am to start working on the shed. Sheldon arrived at 9:00 am to help with the big project. After I served them breakfast it was back to work. You know how "Waage Project's" go around here.....well, this one was no exception. What was supposed to be a "simple" 8'x12' shed......really turned out to be a nightmare. Guess we should have had Wayde up here to supervise. The poor guys couldn't keep the shed square so as the day progressed.....Joel got even more pissed. Brandon showed up after he got off work in the early afternoon. While the shed was giving them problems, Jonathan & the friends hit the water with the jet ski & boat. They were gone most of the day basking in the sun. After dinner the kids started a bon fire & had dessert of smores & were entertained by Brandon proceeding to burn his hand on the hot marshmallow roasting sticks. Around midnight Joel & I were awoken by a wind storm off the lake. We got up to check on the kids that were sleeping in the camper.......silly us, they were still up & gaming. Once again the girls were pissed! In which I didn't blame them. We went back to bed & watched the weather to makes sure nothing was coming that we needed to know about.
I did find Sunday that my friends Cindy & Jen were at a campground in Cumberland having a family reunion weekend and the storm hit the campground really bad. They all escaped with mostly minor injuries but some the of the campers & tents where smashed by trees falling on them. After breakfast, Sheldon & the kids headed out. Sheldon was going to drop them all off at Michael's house and then they all would get rides home from there. Joel continued to work on the shed with Big Joe's help while I started to do the bedding & all the rest of the laundry. Jonathan & Brandon went out on the boat to go hunting for chicks.....they came up empty handed so then they went to Gilligan's for one last effort in finding some......no luck, so they ate. After the day of working on the shed, Joel came to conclusion that he needed to do something different with the roof, so we headed up to Menard's to get a tarp to cover the roof up until he can work on it next weekend.
Monday morning Brandon left to go to work around 4:30 am & Joel was right behind him at 5:00 am heading to Duluth to work until Wednesday evening. At 8:15 am Big Joe headed out the door for Rice Lake and his interview with Mastercraft/Holiday Kitchen's for a Auto CAD job, which is his speciality. After the interview he returned home feeling good about his meeting. Now he needs to wait until the end of the week before he finds out if he gets called back for a plant tour and a second interview with the engineers. Keep your fingers crossed!
This upcoming weekend finds us with nobody coming up. We had blocked out the weekend for Mike & Suzy's Wedding, but we are needing to finish the shed before it get blown down with all these storms we are getting resulting from the hot, humid & hazy days we are having. We wish them nothing but luck for a glorious day. They are meant for each other and the love they have for one another is most obvious. Congratulations Mike, Suzy, Bailey & Maddie!
Check Back Often.......Check Back Soon
Joel, Amy & Jonathan
