Hunting Tales

Hunting Season. Great fun for all, especially those who get to cut up all the game! Haha. Daddy got 5 deer over on the East Side and we spent the weekend cutting them up. I learned how to use the Food Saver [vacuum sealer] and that was fun!
I went up to Grandpa's and went for a walk with him to check on the cows. You learn so much from just being around him! We were looking at a couple cows that were acting sick earlier that day because they wouldn't eat. We went back into the house and I beat Grandpa twice at double solitaire!
I then drove to Eureka to visit Erika, Jilly, and baby Meredith! I had to re-learn how to hold little babies! She was adorable. I almost fell asleep in the rocking chair too, with her head against my cheek. Aw!
Today I drove back to Whitefish with Dad. I worked on some algebra, and it kicked my butt. I wish I could think mathematically, it just doesn't work for me. I'm all over geometry. Those problem I could do! And the most frustrating part is I thought I knew how to do them! But I worked the problem every different way I knew how, and I still couldn't get the right answer! Oh well. I'm going to try and fix those ones tomorrow.
I also picked up a guitar this weekend and realized that I need to practice playing without looking at my fingers. I can't play without looking and seeing where my chord hand is. And I started playing Randy's djembe drum! It was so fun!
I'll write about pottery next time. I'm going to go watch Ocean's 13!
