Travis got bitten by a dog from a roaming pack that was trying to kill his friend's potbelly pigs. This was last night and the health units from both St. Paul and Elk Point have been trying to reach him all day. Plus he has my truck and I could not go for hay for the animals. They are right out and have been starving all day. I told him this and he is still not here. Grrrrrrr! Why does life have to be so difficult some times? I wish we had the live in the moment attitude of a dog at times.
The contractor should have been finished the two projects, the porch and the Quonset months ago. Part of this was my fault because for the porch, we tried to find a concrete contractor so we could open the stairs to the basement from the outside, which is where there was a set when the house was put on the foundation. The firewood used to be brought through the door and it sure would be easier than using the only way down, the trap door. We did not secure anyone to do the job, so sealed the doorway properly this time (it was not done right before) and filling the stairwell in. Then we waited some more. Now some of the siding is done, but not all and no interior finishing ,painting or staining can be done until the screw holes are filled. That was supposed to have been completed for sure by this weekend. Right. Uh huh. NOT!

Seeing Robbie with his legs in the air is analogous to the felling I and some others have adopted as of late. The total lack of stress or care of what comes next is good for what ails you. Someone yesterday said they had several things bothering them and I commented that problems and stress makes you stronger. I then realized, that may not have been the best thing to say.
