So, Grandma will be, what, 89 this month?
Best Sailing in 5 years
No Grandma was 89 , 4 months ago
I'm home from work after "casing and go" for today as I have to go to the dentist.Yes, I went to Jennell's Dr and ended up gettting a woman Dr. instead. Jean said smaller hands... whtevr.
so last long ago I went to Jacksonville and got a new, old sailboat. Sunday I hooked it up and while putting up on it's side had to run up to house to get a part. Well it fell down and when lifting it back up I felt a crack in hull. So I got my chain saw and ripped it in five. Then got tractor and pull another pontoon from side of house and bolt it on. Jean happy to see eyesore gone from house!What was I saving that ting for anayway? Well It got dark just as I was trying my new sail Jean bought for me on ee-Bay so on with the rudder and no sailing Sunday. Tuesday I had annual and called Mom but no answer. Then Jason stop by and well about three the wind starts to pick-up- I sniff the air and zoom off i go to hoist the sail attach the main sheet and find it's to windy to shove the boat so I must get the beach wheels and spalash the maiden voyage is on. Well let me just tell you It floats ontop of the water not down low like the other cat I have and the new sail is tight and Jean had sewed the rip in the jib so it too is right. Now the main sheet (rope to the sail) has both pullys working (the one that runs along the back is broken other boat). Nice, the rudders have the rubber part still on so they lock up or down where you want them, cool. Up it goes on one pontoon before I'm across the lake and so the day went best sail I'v had in 5 years! a couple of 0 times Up so high and riding on top just an inch from going over but holding. another time Just up a foot and crusing over the weed area. Other times haveng a wake from weeds stuck on the rudder, and still ripping along. This boat alwo has harness and handel ropes on both sides! Yippie-ki-yo
Ok then Josh comes home and we go over Edline and he disappears. Then a phone call from Cole..... Josh wants to talk to you... Hello Dad? Um I kinda just got stabbed.......over at joey's....... It was an accident. Well I say I just washed my truck and you better not bleed all over it. Jean is at wall mart after work and forgot her cell today. So I say Joe's is first block? ber right there. Well stop where I think Joe's house is but not sure so I beep and nothing. go up and down block and nothing for over 10 min. finally Joe appears back at the first house where I was beeping and 12 or 13 kids pour out of house and none of them could post as a century. off to delray hosp and git 5 stiches in wrist just 2 to 3 inches up from death wound spot!
he and another hooodlum were wreseling and joe was clearing another bed. just as joe tossed the knife onto the bed Josh fell on it prob before it landed flat and in it went. Back home by 10:45. oop gotta go to dentist-
Hows that for blogging?

No, I sure can't beat those two stories. Glad to know that you got a new boat, new sail and time to do it all. I will have to stop by some time and try out those harnesses. I can counteract a lot of wind.
Tell the Joshua kid to calm down, do his schoolwork and get a job.
Yeah...I'll second that! I saw Edline and it isn't pretty! Tell him his room here is waiting for him if he doesn't clean up that mess (the grades, not the blood)!
re: Grandma
If she's not home, try the Dwyers'. She has been spending lots of time there because she's not walking too much and besides, I get home for lunch. But she would still like to hang with you, so if we knew ahead of time, we could have her in the right place at the right time. LET ME KNOW!-Carolyn
