got it

Ok so I have been working on getting a pretty blog for I don't know how long and I FINALLY got it. Took me a little adding and removing but wallah.
Not much is going on in the town of Gothenburg. The elevator that blow up on November 20 is coming right along. They crew got all of the corn out, I believe they have the rubble out and now are starting the work of tear this part out and level this part ect....It will be a long process, but everyday you see it coming along.
The weather had been okay for the last few days I just don't understand why the WIND HAS to BLOW!!
The store is getting a new look!! There is a team here to redo our canopy, repaint, and put up a new digital sign, that will be so nice. No more going out in the cold and wind to put up numbers. Not that I had to do it but I do feel for Marty.
There are geese galore out on the lake. There is a nice sized lake up on the hill that gets covered in geese this time of year and it is full. It gets so gross up there. There is a nice path to walk on if you don't mind stepping in 2 inches of goose poop.
Well i think that's all for now just thought I would do a random update on things. Later

Losing a loved one

On February 8 2009 my Grandma Forbes passed away. I was getting ready for Mercedes birthday party out at Nick And Mary's. Mary and I were cleaning the house when the phone rang. We both looked at each other and knew what it was. I said that's my mom, sure enough it was. We carried on with the party. Then Chip and I went back to mom and dads.
We stayed the whole week.What a long full week it was. Thursday was the funeral Kirk Carie Katie Shawn Cory Jeff Chip and I were pall bears, while Kain Chaney and Mercedes were honorary pall bearers. Mercedes did a wonderful job she kept reminding me that we had to be quite cause grandma was sleeping. She was so good, i felt bad for her when we started singing, my grandma loved to have everyone sing so the congregation sang on the wings of a dove. Mercedes started crying when we were in the middle of the song. I told her that we had to sing to Grandma, that made her feel better, she even started singing.
We laid my grandma to rest beside my Grandpa, and next to her parents. Then we returned to the church for cake and coffee and a lot of reminiscing.
