As today was Leila Witzig's funeral, Diane needed to leave really early. She is in charge of the funeral dinners this year. I left at 8:45 am so I could go through the visitation line. We couldn't go yesterday because of the wedding. The funeral was very well attended. It is up on AC Central and if you didn't get the chance to go you can see it by clicking HERE. I got home to start cleaning out the fridge and freezer when Sarah and Rhoda arrived, Berlica joined them. They were going to take the horses to Jubilee but Rhoda called and found out the horse trails are still closed. Instead they tacked up Jury, Jewel and Penny. Sarah took the 2 pictures below. Penny did better following Jury. Rhoda rode Jury, Berlica rode Penny and Sarah rode Jewel.
Penny did not want to go through the creek at the first crossing. It took a while but when she finally figured out it was safe she was fine the rest of all of the creek crossings.
They made it back and all of the horses were hot.
They rode up to the barn, untacked and all 3 horses got a hose down and all 3 enjoyed their cool showers.
I went inside to order a new stainless steel fridgerator and a stainless steel gas stove from Home Depot. I also ordered a bookcase headboard for the 2nd bedroom upstairs. Those things will all be delivered on the 3rd of July. Rhoda and Sarah worked with Izzy. Sarah needed to leave but Rhoda went over to mom's house and started organizing and putting things away. I didn't know this until I finished cleaning the old appliances and was so surprised and pleased.
I came back to the house to post the fridge and stove on Hanna City Happenings on Facebook. Below are the pictures that were posted. I put the price of $50.00 each.
Truly within 10 minutes the phone started going off and didn't stop until the post was removed. So many of the people wanted it but wanted me to hold until they could get here. I've been that route so put first come, no holds. By 4:30 pm I knew they are both sold and the people arrived at 5:00 pm to pick them up. They also took the microwave so I will need to order one of those too. Of course the floor needed scrubbing where those appliances had sat for years. The wind picked up this afternoon so Joan got the sail boat out and going. Joan and Berlica sailed then when Taegan came Berlica took her out. Below Berlica and Taegan are going for a sail.
Today was one of those labor days I really don't want to repeat. My back is sore from hauling heavy equipment and my legs are stiff. It's not easy getting old with so much to do. I'm so very thankful for everything that did get done!
