May 21-June 7 Watching Grandkids and lots of Rain

We went and spent four days in Kingwood watching our three granddaughters. Mike and Kristi went to Chicago for a college graduation. We don't really babysit any more but are just a delivery service. Even though school activities have slowed down the girls haven't. Sammi and Ashley both had friend activities and Kenna still has soccer practice. We all went one night to an Awards Program at the the Jr. High. Mackenna got two awards , one for Straight A"s  and another "Shining Star Award".  We never had a evening when all of us ate supper at the same time. These girls are growing up too fast. We went home on Thursday night.  It was good to get home and piddle for awhile. There was a little excitement one morning when a young man lost his trailer and tractor in the ditch. He took out a main power pole and we were without electricity for about 7 hrs. At least it was not a really hot day.. We have been moving Mom in bits and pieces to a new house. I always thought Dish had terrible customer service but now that I have been dealing with  AT &T I understand a new low in customer service. While we were gone rainfall has been scarce. Well, once it started  it has been a monsoon, we have had about 6 inches in the last 4 days. Susan went on a quilting boondoggle up near Madisonville. While she was gone I cleaned and rearranged the inside of the trailer. We get Sammi for about 10 days and we are taking her camping.  Susan came home a day early, her back has been hurting her and now she has terrible pain and knots in her shoulder blade area. We went to a chiropractor in Crosby who Susan has heard a lot of good things about. We did like him and we will see if the treatments help. We are hoping she gets better so we can take our little trip with Sammi.
