Things are returning to “normal”
HC’s grandmother’s funeral was nice. It was just family members there. (But that’s what happens when you outlive everyone else. 98 years old!) The weather cooperated by giving us a warm sunny day. It was nice to get caught up with her cousin’s from out of town.We went for what may be the final top down road trip of the season last weekend. We tried a different trail at Moraine State Park. It was too short and too close to the roads but now we know. HRH had a good time. He even got to take a bit of a dip in the lake AND chase seagulls. He fancied himself a meal of waterfowl but alas it was not meant to be. It was very funny to see him swimming around out there determined to get him some bird. But those pesky things were just too fast and there’s that whole flying thing they do…That damn dog cracks me up!!!!
Work has been hectic. My projects are moving along. Managing that group is a challenge. So much negativity. So many reasons why things can’t be done. I’m saving it up for a post about quitting/giving up. The customers are full of questions and requests.
HC and I are getting the house cleaned up for a belated Oktoberfest party. We’ve been itching to have people over for a while but LIFE, time, schedules, money, and energy level conspired against us. I’ll be making a roasted pork loin, kielbasa, sauerkraut, and red cabbage. The sauerkraut will be made Alsatian style with champagne, a.k.a. choucroute. HC will make some sauerkraut with brown sugar. Some of the guests will be bringing the German potato salad and dessert. There will be beer. 5 liter mini-kegs-o-beer. 5 liter mini-kegs-o-dark-German-beer.
