Wednesday 22J

Saying for the day:A joy shared is twice the joy, a pain shared is half the pain.
Goodnight last night. I've taken to having a cup of tea before bed and it seems to relax me. In the morning I got up early and created a card and a disc for Michael Cooks graduation. After breakfast Caleb and I cleaned up the garage a little then Alex, Elijah, and I built the framework for the upper tunnel-not an easy job. After the framework was done the three boys took turns painting it as there were three colors to apply. Betty made them put on breathing masks. Next we ran the engine that only runs if you load a rock on it, in the back-weird. It did run all the way out and back, however with the rock. The boys took cans back to the grocery store and made $2.00 each in deposit money. Then we went to Iron mountain and ate at the ranch. A wonderful place for such diverse eating patterns. The boys really enjoyed it and chose well , fruit and vegetables as well as other things like macaroni. Then we went to the dollar store which was what they had been waiting for. There they got to spend the $5.00 I gave each of them for working. That buys a lot of junk in $1.00 store. After that we went to Wal-Mart and I got paint while Betty bought stuff for the boys like towels for the beach. Coming home they changed and went to Bewabic Park where they had a wonderful time. I started to clean up my office but I need a bull dozer to really do the work. I did get a little done though. In the morning we go to Dawn and Paul's so the boys can go fishing as well as swiming. Well I need a breathing treatment.
