Tuesday August 16, Watch where you dig

So today was another hit the snooze day, but i jumped up as soon as it went off and got myself ready.  Went out to take care of dogs and cats then down the road I went.  When I got to Mom and Daddy's I told them that my water lines would be laid sometime today, as they had the trencher and the pipes near the fence.  I was concerned with the dogs so Daddy said he would head over and fill them in on the info with the phone line and such as that plus where I want the meter.  So I went to work with the relief that it was all taken cared of.  I don't know what I would do with out him, besides being my Daddy he has also become my rock that I lean on for more than I should. 

While at work Misti called to let me know the phone line was a casualty of the water line.  Even though we knew where the line had been marked, Dad was told that is just an estimate, 3 ft on each side.  I was also informed the gas line is the only one that is precise as the run a line right next to the pipe.   So I called the phone co when I got home and was told 48 hours tops.  I am so grateful for cells today. 

Sammy the cat is Payton's cat, he carries her around like she was a stuffed animal, this afternoon he was walking around with her rocking her to sleep, or trying too, I kept telling him that she does not like that and she is going to scratch you, well if finally happened she scratched him. He said. " I bet that hurt"  I told him" well did it?" And he said " no", we looked for marks and there were none so maybe she just kept her claws in.  I hope it teaches him cause I sure would hate for him to get hurt.

Tonight was Misti's first class so I kept the kids while she went, we played in the yard for a bit then when the guys were gone for the waterline, we got the golf cart out and rode around looking to see what they had done.  I know when it is all over it will be a blessing for the water but for now I am just a little nervous about the work going on.

So we came in after this and got started on bathes, Misti made it in while we were doing this so she was here to put little man to bed and then I brought Patience to bed.
