We have survived city life for almost one month, yay us! Even though we are surviving this city life is getting old quick. Sirens, trains, air planes, helicopters, and big trucks every night while you are trying to sleep gets old QUICK. The best part is the train only comes through at night, or thats how it seems anyways. Oh and people in the city cannot drive, if you are driving the speed limit you are going too slow for everyone else on the road. People don't realize that my 3/4 ton truck is bigger than there 1/2 ton truck or car and they are not going to push me off the road. We are both missing our dead end road where our closest neighbor is a half mile down the road not feet away. Dylan keeps saying he just want to start driving and not stop until he hits a dirt road and then just stay there a while. Once again God knew what he was doing when he chose for me to be raised in the country.
We got a rude awakening at 2 am this morning when some weekend campers decided to come in and set up. After all the hollering and unhooking the trailer (which sounded like the tore the fifth wheel out of the trailer) I am exhausted and I can only imagine how Dylan feels at work. They don't know it but they were moments away from meeting my not so good side. AND to make matters worse this is our second run in with these people so the owner of the park will be notified.
Except for city life and rude people things have been going pretty good for us here. Dylan is working 40 hrs so this summer is going to take a good bit of adjusting if he gets on a job working 60 hours.
Most have heard about my kitchen accident, I tried to cut my thumb off instead of the deer meat. After almost 2 weeks the swelling is starting to go down. I am hoping after the swelling is gone I will get feeling back on that side of my thumb but we shall see. Just a word to the wise if you are ever around this part of the country don't go to Belleville Memorial Hospital in Illinois. It was a terrible experience all together. But that is over now and I am healing well and it was just an minor injury. Dylan was just being overprotective and wanted to make sure I was ok.
Hopefully we only have one month left here in the city and then off to bigger and better thing!
