Longest weekend of my life

Sculpting class on Thursday resulted in the creation of my watermelon rose...



And on Friday, in my European Torte class we manufactured a Hawaiian Pineapple Torte....




So, after that class I made the 3 hour drive home in my uniform lol. Mom had made me a scrumptious meal of mashed potatoes, gravy, deer meat, and brown sugar green beans with bacon. And after I ate I rode over to Candice's to get my eyebrows waxed. Well, while I was there it started flooding, so I waited the rain out at her house. Well, finally about 7pm the rain stopped and I walked to my car to head home. As soon as I sat down in my car Dad called. He said, "The hogs are probably stirrin, do you wanna hunt tonight?" I told him if I went Friday night that I wasn't getting up and going Saturday morning. He said ok. I drove back home, changed clothes AGAIN, loaded everything up and away we went. At 8:30pm (pitch black dark) we turned to dogs loose... at 2:15 am Saturday morning I walked in my door, took a shower, and died. We caught nothing!! Not even a track!!
Putting the cut-vests on


Henry showing his bootaay lol


Talkin to the boys. Told Charlie I would never take him night hunting again, because I am never going again.
 
I don't anyone to worry. We have a night hunting permit for hogs, so we were completely legal!
 
 
At 9:30 am Saturday morning I was up and around. Dad had gone golfing with Shannon and had taken his truck to town. I had left my wallet and the dog collars in the backseat of his truck. Since I had to go to town anyway, I figured I would just make a day of it. I visited Lisa and she treated me a lunch/dinner at Sonic. And then on the Grove Hill to visit with the friends and boyfriend. I had just gotten to Grove Hill when dad called and said that I was gonna have to drive him home because he was too drunk. I met him at Shannon's at 12:30am Sunday and drove him home. We hooked up the trailor, I hooked up all the collars and set an alarm for 4:30am. Once again, we hunted all-day and caught NOTHING!!!
 


Anyway, we had a funeral at 2pm. We had to race to town to get some chicken for the family, race home, take a shower, and go to the funeral. We got home and dad washed my truck while I tried to contact a woman about a dog that my mom so graciously went and got from Montgomery...

We got her in today and I got rid of my lab to make room for her :)

Anyway, we decided to ride to the sandbar and pick up the fourwheeler that quit running Friday night/ Saturday morning and then we rode to Campbell's Landing and visited with some people down there. And washed my clothes, packed the car, and finally at 9:30pm I sent Pat home and I went to bed. I then had to get up at 3am this morning and make the 3 hour drive back and then take a test in a class that started at 8am this morning and ended around one. Needless to say, i'm dead on my feet and ready for some SLEEP!! But, it's worth it!!
