Long day

Mark’s class ended late last evening due to his final exam.  We didn’t actually make it to our lot in Kerrville until after 1:00am, and we didn’t pull inside the gate.  We didn’t hook up to electricity, we didn’t have any propane, and we didn’t have any water.  It was very cold last night.

Final days of school

I didn’t get a chance to mention that all of us women were invited over to the Cooper’s RV yesterday afternoon for a “Kitchen class”.  I had no idea what a kitchen class would be.  They have a brand new Redwood and it’s very fancy but out of our price range.  The kitchen class mostly consisted of showing off various features of the kitchen.  Then one of the women changed the subject to questions she had about this week of training and things got a lot more interesting.  I learned more from that discussion than I did from the class.

All in a day’s work

Last night before Mark and I went to bed we noticed that our electricity wasn’t working.  This morning Mark fired up the generator.  He tried checking our fuse box and everything, but couldn’t find what the problem was.  I went out to feed the pigs and saw Karl already in the barn.  When he found out we didn’t have electricity he went to look at our situation with Mark and discovered that the problem was in the electricity coming from the cabin where we’re hooked up.

Another one bites the dust

Well, not quite “bites the dust”, but Mark is singing a very deep bass this week.  He has something bronchial going on and missed work today.  He’ll probably miss another day or two as well the way he’s going.  I took him to the doctor this morning and she said something is going around Tok that she hasn’t quite figured out yet.  Please pray for Mark.
