Fall is Upon us

It's been pretty quiet around the Waage house.......well, except the puppies! Life with 6 puppies is pretty busy, hectic and fulfilling!

The guys have been busy also......getting ready for winter:
Boat out of the water.......................... check
Docks out ........................................... check
Boat winterized................................... check
Waiting for marina to look at boat...... not done
Boat & Jetski into storage....................not done
Leaves rakes 1,2 and 3 times................not done
Camper cleaned out and down............ check
Windows installed................................not done

Hoping that the weather will hold out to get the rest done in time. There is more construction going on. We finally found a used garage 10' x 7' insulated garage door, which we made made the garage door smaller and added a mud room with a window. Now that we got the new garage door, we will be able to get my truck into the garage for the winter. This is necessary with me being here by myself and being able to get out if Grandma Waage needs help or has an emergency.

Last Friday I celebrated 2 years with Styer Logistics......wow does time fly when you are having fun :)

Big Joe started his new job with Dedicated Logistics and is loving it. He is driving flatbed with a day cab, so he is having to learn how to chain, strap and secure his loads of steel, granite and tubing. With him in the day cab, his company puts him up in hotels on the nights he is away from home.

Charlie Brown was put on a diet 2 weeks ago and I am happy to report that he is down to 17.4 from 20.6. The average min pin weighs 10lbs and that is where the vet wants his weight to be. We think 10lbs is a little small for for him as he is such a big boy (height) compared to the other puppies. Oh, well time will tell.

Our niece, Courtney came and spent the weekend with us. It is so fun to have her here. She is away fromthe cities and undesirable friends for a break. She is so trying to turn her life around and has come a long way since I dropped her off in a homeless shelter over a year ago. It was tough love and wouldn't change a thing! We got our niece back by doing so.

This weekend is Gilligan's Halloween Scavenger hunt that we have been doing for years. Our regular team was unable to make it, so we tried to put together another team of at least 4 and found out yesterday that Sandy & her husband had to cancel as well! So if anybody out there has nothing to do.......we would love to have you come up and join Joel & I in the hunt.

Check Back Often........Check Back Soon
