Crochet Me Crazy

I'm happy. Alison's happy. Jeff's happy. My dogs are happy. My deer is happy. Everyone is happy! Look what God has done...we are living in this nice house with a beautiful view....lots of space...for a very, very reasonable rent! What more could I ask for?

Sitting on the front porch one evening....



Last Saturday....we got the stressful project of getting Gracie moved over with. She did very well. She was nervous and breathing hard during the drive but I was with her and she didn't freak out. The first thing she did is check out the fence line. Now she seems to very content in her new home. She has a lovely, large environment now with lots of food to eat. I had taken a bunch of pictures on Alison's phone because my camera battery was dead. I still haven't been able to get those pictures. This one I took is not very good but it shows how nice her enviromnent is. This is just the part around the front of the house.


Alison had her piano lesson yesterday and then she got to go riding at their house. Another person in her life that knows a bit about training horses can teach her a lot about horses.




More good news is that Jeff found out his boss is getting transferred to another territory and he is getting a new boss. I haven't posted about that situation but his boss was a big reason why his job is so stressful. Jeff spends countless hours driving all over the place getting equipment and delivering it to his technicians. Then he still has to do all of his normal manager duties -- reports, damage claims, payroll, rearranging routes....part of the reason he work or drives all night with no sleep so he can get it all done. His first conversation with his new boss is looking like there will be some changes that are going to make Jeff's life a lot easier. They are going to get a storage building near us for equipment & they are hiring a guy that will delivery equipment.

Alison is getting excited --- her ballet show is in a few weeks. This is always a big deal.

I guess I would be leaving something out if I didn't mention that Alison has a new beau. This is the boy she met at church that she has been talking to for months. They have finally admitted their "like" for each other and Alison is on cloud nine. He has the stamp of approval from all of us...including Dad & brother!
