Mom and I went to Greenwood Friday night to watch Spank play. We won't mention the score but let's just say we lost AGAIN! The boys played alright, but we have room for improvement.
Saturday Brandon and I went to Fayetteville with Kristin and Mark to watch the Razorbacks lose to Auburn. The game was disappointing but it was an exciting game.
Yesterday I went with mom and dad to the state fair to watch Spank show his goats. He got 8th place in class 14 and 11th place in class 16. (not too bad, but not too good!) It rained all day long!!! BUT I did get to eat a pork chop sandwich for lunch so I had a good day. :)
Nothing new really seems to be going on with the Benson family. Between work, church, and our busy hobbies we stay pretty busy. Drop us an e-mail sometime. We'd love to hear from you!

Let there be light!

As of today there is light in the shop now. It's exciting until we get the next electric bill. :)
Softball is over now, but we seem to find plenty to do to fill in that one night per week. I started running again this week after being sick. YIKES! I didn't realize how being sick for a few days could make me so weak and lower my endurance so much. It makes me realize how tired and weak some of my patients can be.
We didn't go to the football game Friday night because my brother is still sick. He missed everyday last week because of being sick. He went to the doctor last week and they have not quite figured out why he has been having symptoms of the stomach virus for the last couple of months. This week he seems to be better. He has been trying to practice football and attend school. Hopefully we can find out what's causing this. A possible visit to the gastroenterologist could be in his near future.
I worked on Saturday.... what a day! I think I should have stayed at home. :) I ended up having to wear hospital pajama pants home because one of my patients had issues with their catheter and my blue jeans were saturated. Then a patient got sick to her stomach and I barely got her to the bathroom in time. So I almost got thrown up on. It was just a little bit crazy at work. We only work 1/2 day in therapy on the weekends and there is only 1 therapist with a tech so that makes it difficult too.
Saturday night we went to Mike's Place to eat dinner with Kristin and Mark. We had to wait for one hour, but it was definitely worth the wait.
Hunting season started this week so Brandon is getting ready to bow hunt on Saturday. I am going to take it easy... Reid has a soccer game, but other than that I have no plans (just the way I like it!).
