Day 258 June 5

 Today I was helping maintenance out at Bentley.  Most of the work orders I tried to do were a waste of time because people did not answer, or we did not have the right parts.  We were able to make a bunch of service calls and get a leaking sink fixed.  At the end of the day, I headed home.  When I got home, I had some lunch and then relaxed during the afternoon.  When it was time to make supper, I made grilled pizza.  We made them a little different than at home, but they still turned out really good, and we ate supper on the patio.  After supper, I hung out with Josiah for a while and then relaxed for the rest of the evening.  Around 10, I started babysitting duty while Leigha went to get Christian from the airport.

Day 257 June 4

 Today I spent the whole morning putting things away from the party on Tuesday.  I did a lot of organizing in the office area and made sure everything that belonged in the closet was put away.  Then I made a trip over to the pantry to drop some stuff off there, and then also went to Woodbine to drop some stuff off there.  When I was done running around, I went back to the office and had lunch.  I had a nice mac and cheese platter.  After lunch, we headed up to the Attrium for the mobile market.  This was my last mobile market, so it made me kind of sad.  After the mobile market, we headed back to the office, and then I headed home to make up for working extra hours on Tuesday.  When I got home, we headed to a playground for a while and then headed to supper at a drive-in burger restaurant.  We were going there because someone from church was doing live music there.  The food was amazing, and I had the best cookie dough flurry I have...

Day 256 June 3

 Today was pantry day.  We started by loading up a bunch of stuff at the office to take over to give out at the pantry, and just other stuff that needed to go back.  This included loading a wagon full of bottled water.  When we got to the pantry, we got everything unloaded, and then I went to Trader Joe's for the pickup.  When I got back from Trader Joe's, I went and picked up Doug, and we did Sprouts.  When we were done with that, we got everything put away and then had lunch.  After lunch, we got started, and it was busy as usual, but it went smoothly.  After we were done, we packed up and headed back to the office.  At the office, we put stuff away, and then I went with Russ to take the grills back from yesterday.  When I was done with that, I headed home.  When I got home, I relaxed for a while, and then I led a learning component where we watched a documentary about Alaska fishing.  After learning component, I made some su...

Day 255 June 2

 Today was the summer kickoff party.  I took lots of pictures, so make sure to check out the album.  I started the day by getting things ready around the office, and then I went to Sam's Club to pick up more burgers for the party.  After I was done with that, I went back to the office to help some more before going to Goodwill to pick up our book donation.  Then I went back to the office to help with more stuff, and then I had lunch.  After lunch, I went with Cristal's husband, Russ, to pick up grills for the party.  We picked up one from Jenni's house and then took the one from my house.  When we were back with the grills, I helped with some last-minute stuff before I went to Bentley to try and pick someone up from our summer classes, and they did not show up.  Then I went to Walmart and got some ice for the party.  When I got back to the office, we were full speed, setting up with about 35 volunteers.  I helped get the grills goin...

Day 254 June 1

 Today was a busy day.  I started by taking Doug over to UT to get some volunteers started on work.  After I dropped him off, I went to Sprouts for the pickup.  Then I went to the pantry and got everything put away.  When I was done at the pantry, I went back to UT to pick up Doug.  Then I took him back to the office, picked up the bread, and went to Westside.  When I got back to the office, I ate lunch and then put our new wagon together.  When I had it together, I did a bunch of organizing of stuff to get ready for tomorrow.  Then Jenni and I went to Walmart to get some burger toppings for tomorrow.  When we got back, I went back to the pantry to pick up water and some tables.  When I was done with that, I did some more organizing and then went to Woodbine to get some crates to organize stuff in.  Then we went on a hunt for some traffic cones and did not find any.  At the end of the day, I headed home.  When I got h...

Day 252 May 30

 Today I slept in late because my bed was so awesome.  When I got up, I headed down the road a little way to try Uncle Sam's Pancake House.  I got the Uncle Sam, which was a really good omelet.  Then I headed back and ate my food on the front porch.  When I was done eating, I packed up my cabin and got my car out of the way, and then we sat and visited for a while again.  Around lunch time, we went to Dutch Bros for some drinks, and then I grilled up some brats for lunch.  After lunch, we sat and watched the pool, waiting for the time when no one else was in there so Jenni and I could go swimming.  Finally, the time came, and we floated around for a couple of hours.  After we were done swimming, I headed back to the house.  When I got home, I pretty much went straight to bed.
