Life at Hatfield House is never dull....
Logan has went to Colorado for the summer, (and maybe more), I have been battling the never ending battle with Financial Aid at school, putting foods up has begun, and teenage girls in the house for the summer.... nah... never dull....
Logan is having a blast there with his Mom and brother. I think this may just be the break that our daughter needs and that Logan needs. They need each other, and the timing is perfect... but we shall see....
Financial Aid has become the proverbial thorn in my side. It's an ongoing battle to try and get all this paperwork figured out! I thought it to be finally complete, and today, I get my deferrment for my school loans in the mail, stating that I had to "sign here and fill out this section..." All this would have been done if they had left it alone in the first place and let me fill it out and fax it the way the loan place told me to do.... now I have to sign here and fill out there, and take it back to them... again.
I put up 24 pints of strawberry jam today.
Then with supper tonight, we ate almost 1 pint with our warm biscuits! Yummy!
The girls are home for the summer. They don't really want to help with the housework or with cooking, but I figure it don't hurt em none....
We had a dickens of a hail storm here yesterday. HAIL! In June.. in Indiana! Geezy Petes!
I took a video of that... let's see if I can get that up here.
New things around here include teaching the girls how to shoot. I want them to learn. Dad knows how, I know how, and it's time they learned how. As much as we're out and about, you just never know what you'll encounter! (I'm sure I'll be flamed for that one...yes, it's legal WHERE we were shooting, yes, the gun is legal, and yes, both parents are legal. Oh.. and the gun that is being shot is mine...)
Before anyone questions... no, we DO NOT condone violence, and we DO expect safety, which is why we are TEACHING the girls....
The garden is coming along nicely (except for the hail storm damage), and the laundry is done yet one more time.....
So life is good.....
~Blessings~
Oh my, you realy did get a hail storm! I hope your garden recovers from the damage. Your strawberry jam looks wonderful, mine will be ready to start picking this next week. Have a wonderful weekend!
