| Rue enjoying the left over feet from our "Feet Shod with the Gospel of Peace" Jr. Church project. |
 |
| Jr. Church project "fiery darts of the devil" July 30 |
 |
| Playing outside with the cousins. |
 |
 |
| Shi the Walrus |
 |
| Fun stuff from a relative. |
 |
 |
| Very RARE Watermelon treat. Delicious! July 31 |
 |
| A second scorpion ... a few days later, there was one in the bathtub. These were both smaller than the one that landed on my pillow a few weeks before this one showed up. August 1 |
 |
| I got a fun free sample in the mail. Gorgeous color! |
 |
| Rue with her notebook. |
 |
 |
 |
| Kendra writing her books, instead of school. Oh well, it was summer. |
 |
| A Ruezy Train. She is constantly lining up chairs and stools like this, all over the house, biggest to smallest. |
 |
| Cleaning out the office so Tim can move into it. |
 |
 |
| Most of the stuff that came out of the office, ended up in the schoolroom... it took us 3 weeks to sort through all of this and get it mostly ready for school. |
 |
 |
| Kendra continued to move into her new room. |
 |
 |
| She now has a spot to set up the knitting machine again ... something she's not had time to do since last fall. She thinks she ALMOST has figured out how to cast on. After that, the instructions are easy enough to follow. She says. |
 |
 |
| Meanwhile, Vannan brought home some "rejected" odds and ends from WR one Tuesday... and Rue was delighted to have a horse to ride. |
 |
 |
 |
| At this point, she was well under way to cleaning up her sister's areas, and transporting the boxes next door. We haven't been able to use the tub since we brought the trailer up here, it has a leak inside the wall. Though now would be a great time to fix it, and the window above the tub... which also leaks to the inside of the outer wall. I have 5 known spots where the windows/roof are leaking to the insides of the walls. Removing the tub and turning it into closet space would be a viable option as well. But that isn't going to happen any time soon. We haven't a clue how to go about it... and it's very low on our "important items" when any money comes in... other stuff always comes up ... like keeping electricity on. |
 |
 |
| At this point, We still had the 3 beds in the room, but Kendra was already sleeping next door. Joel's bed is now next door (temporarily ... until Tim has exited his room) and she has moved the red bunk bed to the middle of the room. Pictures will show up soon. |
 |
 |
 |
| Meanwhile, even more misplaced and displaced stuff has ended up in the kitchen/dining/living/Rue/Media/Front entry closet/library/playroom area. |
 |
| Here is a view from the other end of the room ... I'm standing on the steps. In the other picture, I'm standing in the hall entry way. |
 |
| We made a nook for the videos. We are looking forward to using this area. |
 |
| And having a TV next door to watch. Also, today, the actual today, monkey wrench was tossed at us. Figuratively. Keep us in your prayers. |
