Hump day

Well today is hump day. Thank goodness means only have 2 more days of bus driving this week and then a long weekend. We get Monday and Tuesday off. Hopefully I will get the shelves finished in my laundry room. It would be great if I got the ceiling light moved to the middle of the room also.

I am going to run to the cities on Saturday and pick up my new motorcycle. I know I can't ride it yet but I can go to the garage and look at it anyway.

The snowmobile trip to Lake Kabetogama was fun. It was one long day on Saturday but it was a nice ride. However, 250 miles in one day is too much for this ole girl. I told Art the next time we go on a trip I am going to pull my snowmobile on a trailer and meet them and then do some riding. I am still tired today.

The weather has been great the last couple of days. The snow is just about off the roof just in time for some more snow on Friday and colder weather. Today was over 50 above. Wish it would keep on.

I didn't get out into the nice weather too much today as I started making soap. I made 6 batches today and have that many ready to make tomorrow. Before you know it Evy will be opening the flea market. I even got part of my soap room cleaned. Hopefully tomorrow when I am done with the soap I can clean the rest of it.

Not much going on around Squaw Lake that I know of. Of course a person would have to go out to find out anything and outside of doing my bus run the last 2 days I haven't been out.

The grouse are starting to come out onto the edge of the roads. I saw 4 today. I saw an eagle today also but haven't seen or heard any geese or swans yet.

I even had lovely skunk smell in my yard last Friday night. The next day I smelled skunk around the corner and on Monday I smelled skunk out more toward the highway. I hope he just kept going so that the dog doesn't get into it. I'm afraid if she gets in to it she will be kicked out to the dog house.

Quite a bit of the snow has disappeared in the yard with this thaw. Not enough but the banks are somewhat lower.

Well I don't have anything else to say tonight. Hope you all have a good week.

Take care,
Julie
