The washer & dryer work so nice & look so good. The dishwasher came today but they don't install it for free. Dale said eh could do it. So Thurs. nite Lar will help him take it in. They put it in the garage. Now I won't get the old one taken away. Lar said he'd take it to Valentine's Disposal - Kim said put an ad in the paper & sell it. Lar's suggestion is the easy way out. We have other junk that could go as well. Barb like to clean & get rid of stuff.
Thinking of Melinda (pastor's daughter). Things have come easy for her & she hasn't had any job maturity yet & she's pretty sure of herself. (a good quality) but I'm sure her mind will be changed as she gets into the "real world". Gary can make mountains out of molehills - we've seen that at church so she could be a little biased.
To a degree (3rd game) I enjoyed the Mets-Yankees series. The 3rd game was more interesting & not just because the Mets won. It was closer & you couldn't guess the outcome til the last out. Nice to see a full house. I like the interleague games.
Barb just came to have me see the border & it adds so much. It is a leaf design & not straight on the bottom. Cut like leaves are. Hard to describe - you'll see when you visit.
You are busy people with all the baseball games & special ones. Here you mostly played at Beaty & could walk.
The 80.00 for the pool membership is money well spent as kids have so much fun swimming. Has Eddie learned to swim.
Nancy Davis' daughter Amy is a cashier at KMart. I know her from church but not that well. We recognized each other from church. She is very personable. Think she'll be a senior at college this fall. She is an education major. The 2nd child, a boy, graduated from high school this yr. & will to go Penn State Behrend, Erie, in the fall.
The first of June we had a lot of rain. The last 2 weeks nothing & it's quite dry. Rain is forecast but nothing happens. At Hatch Patch the corn is really high & tasseled so they should be picking soon. Probably be at least 3.00 a dozen - baker's dozen.
Kim stopped over today to return the papering equipment Lar borrowed. She mentioned having us out at camp next Sun aft. Lar plays in a soccer game at 2 pm. Young guys vs. "old" guys. So it wouldn't be until 4:30. Kim wondered if it would be too late for Dad. Barb thinks if it's a hot day, later would be better as then it would start to cool off. They want us to see what has been done recently. The back room about completed. Lar's started stairs from the deck near the storage shed. Kim has put up some of her collections. She was looking thru boxes Lar has at the Carriage House basement & came upon a tea set Barb got Lar when she was in Italy. She wants to up that up. Lar has made shelves for her stuff. So there are new things I'd like to see. And it's so pretty up there.
This turned out to be longer than I expected. Didn't think there was much to talk about.
In the June Good Housekeeping there is an article about "children" coming home to live. Some to pay off college debts faster; some as a result of divorce & need Grandma to baby sit, one lost her apt. lease & went to live with sister & bro.-in law. All seemed to work out fairly well. And money wasn't the problem. It was interesting to me having 2 at home.
Will bring this to a close. Am looking forward to seeing all of you in Aug.
