My company sent me out of town again this week. Here's how it went...I got up at 2:45 Monday morning, went through my morning routine, coffee, TEG, etc... Loaded my suitcase and cooler into the truck and left for Charleston (220 miles away) at 4:15. I got to the office there a bit before 8:00, then went to the job-site and worked until 5:00pm. Stayed in the hotel that night and was back at the site at 7:00am and worked until 5:00 again on Tuesday. Lather, rinse, repeat on Wednesday, but instead of going to the hotel Wednesday night, I got to drive home. Got here around 7:00 Wednesday night (after getting up at 5:30am). Got to spend a bit of the evening with the family before going to bed. Back up at 4:00am yesterday morning to go to Morgantown and another job-site. Got there around 8:00am and worked until 4:00, then drove back home (an hour and 45 minute drive). Got home a bit before 6:00 last night, went straight to the fridge and got out the grape juice I made last Sunday. I called Dew earlier in the week and told her not to can it up; that it would be OK until I got home. It was. So last night I was up until nearly 11:00pm making another 32 jars of jelly.
I'm taking today off. We are driving back to Rogers (where we bought the cucumbers). I'm looking for a few tools I need to get the transmission out of the Durango. But as soon as we get home, I must get the tomatoes in and canned. There's a horde of them out there! This may be the last canning run for them. The romas are ready for their last picking and I don't know if I have enough main crop tomatoes left to turn after this picking to can another load; maybe I do.
Dang I'm tired.
