Time Change

 I went out early this morning to check the rain gauge as I heard it raining during the night. We got a full inch of rain through all of those storms yesterday and during the night.

Faith had her first wedding shower this morning in Tremont, IL so Joan needed to leave by 9:00 am. I went over early to hear all about the potluck last night. Mom really enjoyed having company. This morning Israel had his Derby race day. His derby car came in 2nd. 
David sent a video of the actual race but I can't seem to share it here.  Joan came home this afternoon with a big bouquet of flowers from Randy and Kathy. They sent them home with Joan for mom with a nice thankyou card from when they stayed down in mom's condo this winter.
Below Joan is reading the card to her.
When I got home from mom's the sheets I had ordered a couple days ago from Target had arrived. They were washed, dried, folded and taken up to the apartment.
It has been years since I bought new sheets for the foaling apartment and some of those were really wearing out. We have a guest moving in tomorrow for 4 nights but when she moves out some wedding guests are moving right in so we will need the extra sheets to flip the apartment. My next job was to head over to the barn to sweep up any stray lady bugs (Asian beetles) that found their way inside. We have Kensley's end of year basketball celebration at the barn tonight. They ended their 5th grade season 26 wins and 1 loss. It really was an amazing season and her team was such a fun team to watch. As I was sweeping Gertie and Dennis arrived with a couple guests from Taylor, Mo. We had a nice visit. After they left I finished the barn then went home to think about cleaning here at our house but just couldn't make myself do any more work. I just don't have the energy since that long sickness. The 12 chicken breasts were cut up, drizzled with olive oil and covered with parmesan cheese for tomorrow's dinner.
Mark will grill that tomorrow along with the peppers and onions as we are going to have a nice warm Sunday.
Israel bought a bat at one of the second hand stores in Chili, posted it on Facebook market place and sold it for $70.00. He is trying to earn enough money to buy some kind of switch for one of his games and this will really help. Smart kid to know to buy the bat in the first place. It must have been really special. 
As tomorrow is the time change and it is already almost 9:00 pm making it really 10:00 pm we must go to bed now. Hopefully I'll get up early enough to clean up the kitchen it is just too late now and I have no more energy.
