Merry Christmas Everyone!

We had a small cold front move through yesterday…the clouds dropped little pebbles of sleet, but nothing else.

Christmas Eve was delightful last night….all the kids home and present–too much food, lots of dirty dishes and a surprise Christmas present from Terry to me! I’ll show you tomorrow. I have been wanting one; getting it was a complete and delightful surprise!

Around 11 everyone, except Kimi and Cliff (they are off to his Mom’s for the day), will arrive again for another round of eating and laughing and enjoying each other. The little kids love playing games. We will all participate in games perfect for a little 5 year old, then move up to games that our 9 year old enjoys, but Blade…Blade is good at adult games…pinochle, poker, and his favorite—Monopoly! (I hope I’m washing dishes during Monopoly time…I really don’t like that game :()

Tomorrow…I’m crashing. There is much too this hosting of parties and making sure everything goes well. I enjoy every minute! I also get tired.

Wishing each and everyone of you a Warm and Wonderful Christmas celebrated the way you most hold dear!

With Love, Your friend, Linda

Not a lot happening here. I got the trucks cleaned and ready to go, plus our car and Terry’s pickup. I thought if I was cleaning the everyday vehicles I might as well get the grain truck and the Dodge spruced up and ready for work.

After a long day I can say they are done!

Today Terry will take a corn sample down to see the moisture content. Some of the guys have started combining…the ones that store their corn and sell it later. I drove by the Elevator and saw a semi unloading so there are those that are dry enough to begin. I don’t think he really wants to start until November 1st, but (between you and me) if the corn is ready he will have a hard time waiting. 🙂 🙂

I added a link so you can see the whole process from beginning to end here on our little farm. Some of you have already seen this, or live where it is happening, but I know there are others that are new to my blog, or live in places where the corn doesn’t grow.

Today I ~~have~~ want to tackle my office and all the paperwork sitting there waiting for me to do something about it. What a drag, but it has to be done so I had better get to moving on it.
