Prince returns

Tuesday, sun was shining and I was up by 8.. got to love summer :) Around one, little miss Shaina came to sleep with me but her insomnia and tossing and turning and cruising around the house had me sending her to the basement around 5:30. I understand insomnia but know it was my last peaceful sleep for a week, today the prince returns!

I spent the morning doing boring accounting, fun waxing and table top top coating before hitting the mower to take down the recent rain induced growth. Britt was off to Matt's to finally get some mowing done at 11. This will be a good $$ week as she works at 4 today as well. Shaina was finally up and caught horses to condition. We each took another tourney horse with us for the warm ride in the glorious sun. Shaina was complaining it was too hot but I hushed her saying our summers are too short, enjoy!
 even with scrubbing and rinsing you can find "grease" spots pull thru after painting.. so frustrating
 here is the top painted, looks great but once the top coat varnish went on it too shows marks, grrrrr
Cold beer and egg salad crackers and it was back out to finish mowing. Although only 24, the clear skies and last few days in the clouds makes it seem warmer. I dropped Britt a cold drink around 3:30 on my way to the airport. The car showed 27 for rest of the day so indeed it was hotter.
 hard working Britt, look at her hands!
Shaina's hard work on her day off was going to the gym then sun tanning on the deck! I picked up the Prince, we stopped to load up at Costco and were back at the ranch just before 7. Britt was just ahead of us, she had mowed lawn for 8 hours and only on a piece of toast and couple jugs of water. Next time I am sure she will heed her mothers suggestion to eat a good meal before work.

We had a yummy late barbecue supper we all enjoyed as a family!
