Things are harder when one of the workers heads off to college!

true, chores always go quicker with help :). DS(17) will help me out when I need extra hands and so will DS(13).

This winter was just a bit more challenging given the weird weather we had, especially with snow removal....and now we are having melting snow which is causing flooding :barniebut so far so good. Of course we are always on call for all the buildings we manage.

We are on week 2 of Spring Break...DD was home last week and now DS(17) and DS(13) are home this week...

Didn't get as much done last week as I was hoping to with DD's help...the weather was still chilly out and the ground still pretty wet so no cleaning out the goat shelter! She also had homework to do, a book to read, paper to start and a couple tests to study for. Hopefully this week will be better..

And what fun would it be if everything went smoothly...a week ago this past Friday, DH's truck was having issues and he ended up taking it to the dealership to have it looked at because it started indicating that it was going to shut down in 72 miles. Turns out the exhaust system wasn't working like it should and the filter was plugged up. DH did mention to the service department that a code came up showing a problem with at least 1 of the thermostats and that ended up being replaced and we are waiting on the new exhaust system to show up for replacement too. So DH has been using my vehicle as his work vehicle and DD got a ride back to school with a friend so I could use her Jeep until DH gets his truck. Never a dull moment and kidding hasn't even started yet!!

That would be just a wee bit inconvenient to have the truck just shut down. Nope ain't agonna move no more!

Later spring break for your DD. DD2 would go back to school late Jan and have a week off about the 2nd week of March, school out mid May. DD1 started on Jan 7th and was here the 3rd week of February. We pick her up on April 18th.

ahh...wee bit inconvenient is an understatement...he's been kind of lost without it as it has tools and parts that he uses/needs for different jobs. He can't get all of it into my Jeep so it makes things a challenge.

A bunch of the UW system was on Spring break this past week, I think DD is done for summer 3rd week of May.
