It's almost midnight and it's one of those rare occasions when I can't sleep...too many things dancing around in my head I guess!  Thinking about the boys moving into the dorms on Saturday... they don't really seem that excited..they've been through so much, I guess this is just another "move" for them.  I hope they perk up once they move in and make new friends.  My sunroom progress came to a halt today...my sand for the brick mortar is not here..no bricking outside, no starting on the finishing work on the inside..probably next week before the sand gets here...CRAP!  My living room furniture isn't here yet either..CRAP!  Limbo is killing me! We did have a contractor come out today to survey the dry creek bed and drainage system that runs from the pond, pass the barn and into the big culvert under the road. The floods in late Spring took out the road and flooded the yard where the barn is...don't want that again, so that will all get fixed in 3 weeks.  Then the barn needs some TLC next...home ownership is exhausting and expensive!! ha ha  Good news today, the transportation people at Ft Campbell got everything straightened out with our move...got all of Jerry's Army gear taken off, plus the packing material and downsized our load to 12,500 pounds...we'll get reimbursed/paid for all the stuff Jerry and Jerome hauled cross country plus travel money!  Just in time to put it in the bank to pay for college books...whoohoo!!   Did some looking on line for antiques in Ohio...several good malls around Cincinnati...something not too far away, but definitely new!  Might be a nice road trip later on in September when the weather starts to cool a little.  Ok, I guess I'll make myself go lay down and try to sleep...morning will be here before I know it...or want it!! Love you all,  Jamie   Pat, let us know how Molli's appointment went...I know they are so excited!!
