Mother is leaving tomorrow morning (early) to drive up to her friend, Elizabeths' place and then to travel with her and her daughter and another friend up to Canada to take a 3 day class in an upper module of BodyTalk. Mom is really excited! She drove tractor most of the day, (and smashed her finger badly while trying to unstick a bunch of dirt that got stuck inbetween the disc blades, so please pray for that to heal quickly!) so I helped get some things together here at home for her trip (counted out the amount of Canadian dollars that she needs for the class; boiled over a dozen eggs for her to take along for breakfasts; cooked up some broth; and dug out her passport from the safe). In the morning, we need to get up early and weigh out a quarter of beef for Mom to take along to Elizabeth. Then, there's a little more packing that needs to be done before Mom can leave. Lord willing, she'll return to us on Monday, sometime.
I should probably get to bed so I feel like getting up when my alarm buzzes!

Convention videos...
My brother Andrew has been posting several videos he took at the talent night during the convention, so if you'd like to see that, just visit his blog HERE.
It was a quite day here, after 10:30 that is! Before that time, it was actually quite busy, with packing food and tucking in some last minute clothing items, plus Andrew went and got the Azure order in Dawson, and then the mail came with a nice grain check tucked in amongst the bills, so it was a busy morning.
Andrew and I heard from the others around 7:30 this evening, saying that they'd just made it to their hotel in Blue Earth, MN. They went out to eat at the "Country Cottage" cafe across the road from their hotel and, while they were eating, they saw (from the window) several police stop a vehicle and eventually pull the vehicle away and take the driver prisoner, they believe it was for drug dealing. I'm sure Jacob will tell you more about that when they return.....
The drive to Blue Earth took longer than they'd expected, and they've now made the decision to sleep at the hotel the last night of class too, instead of driving home right after a long day of sitting as they'd originally planned to do! That means that they'll be coming home Sunday some time....
It snowed about 4 inches here today. It was coming down so gently this evening during chores that my brother and I almost didn't want to come back inside.....
And now it's time to get some sleep again.
Thank you all, once again, for your pleasant birthday greetings!!! :)
