Paradise! 

 From time to time, when I write this blog, I will have my post nearly done and I bump something and end up loosing everything.  I just did it again.  The dumb thing is, i can't even remember what I wrote about.  So I will see if I can figure it out.  I know I can do it.

So EO talked to some repairmen about our washer and dryer.  They said whatever you do, DON'T BUY NEW.  Each one he spoke to said the same thing, the new ones are junk.  That seems fitting for the end of this system. So EO went and bought the parts he needs and he is going to try and fix them himself.  I know he can do it.

Colton would fix them, but right now working 4 jobs, he has no time.  Working at the Inn is even using up his sleeping time.  At least he only has about a month of this, and then DQ will close and he will be able to get some rest.  It will be tough but I know he can do it.

Lauren is trying to get her room painted.  I know she could use help, but I'm not up to it, and no one has any time these days.  She painted it herself last time, but because of all the changes she is making with her furniture, and cleaning, it is taking a lot out of her.  But I know she can do it.

Steph has been working extra long hours.  She tried to cut back in her work, but 2 girls quit, and now it is just Colton, Steph and Tiffany.  Tiffany is also out of town for the next 5 days, and Steph works at the Merk nearly every day.  At least this time of year is slower, but still.  She can hardly keep awake.  I think she even works the day of the party.  At least it won't be for much longer, and soon she will be able to function again.  I know she can make it.

It is just the coolest thing to be sitting here at the dinning table and look out the entry window and see the horse trailer and fence and gate.  Soon there will be horses there.  EO and Steph might go look at a few horses in Cloquet.  But their big plan is going down to Neilsville next month.  They talked to George Wimmer who will also be going to the big 5 day horse auction and he said he would help them find a couple of good sound horses.  EO & Steph are thinking about staying the night down there, and I might go along.  I don't know if I can handle it, but I am going to try, I think with having a hotel room, I can do it.
