This past month has been filled with a large auction in
Auburn, surgery on my foot and getting ready for Olivia’s graduation. The
graduation is more just planning out the trip to Bloomington and hoping she
gets her diploma.
Spring has finally sprung and the grass is growing pretty
quickly at the homestead, we have the baby goats growing fast and getting ready
to pick up rabbits. Steph needs to find some chickens to raise for 4-H and then
the Eckert farm will be full. Savannah and Sebastians horse came to live with
us this week, Belle was a gift from Sebastian to his lovely lady a few years
ago and now she is ready for some training and riding.
Aleah has started her Track season and finished her
Volleyball season all in the same week. Steph thinks Aleah maybe a little too
hard on herself when competing and needs to let mistakes roll off her more.
That might be an Eckert trait or a Grandma Sherrill habit. Either way it’s hard
to be at your best if every error one makes causes a lack of concentration due
to the anger or embarrassment.
Michael has started his baseball season under the
leadership of Terry Stoffel, let’s hope his batting improves and he starts
knocking the crap out of the ball. He loves being a part of the team and the
games are big deal for him. Michael wants to ride horses this year in 4-H and
that training will fall on my ladies Steph and Aleah, Michael you’re in good
hands.
Sebastian will be working for a Buddy of mine again this
summer mowing and landscaping(Wind Landscaping) located in Allen Co. He loves
working with James and being outside, he already has been offered a internship
for next fall with an Insurance company. He seems to be getting all things in
order for his graduation in 18 months.
My Buddy Carson Raymond Eckert had a birthday in April
and will be making his 1st Communion, that’s a lot for 30 days. I’m
thinking about what to give him as a present, he is kinda attached to his Hello
Kitty collection.
I’m hoping that my right foot heals quickly so I can do
the left and be back on my feet midsummer. It would be awesome to walk 9 holes
of golf without hurting for 3 days after. I never look forward to surgery but I
finally had enough of sitting on the sidelines while everyone else was enjoying
life. Plus my wife said I was an OLD man. Stephs been great helping me and Dad
was my private driver for a week, damn he drives slowly. I never knew it was
possible to take 30 minutes to drive from my house to my office, but he proved
that wrong. A few times I had to look twice to make sure we weren’t going
backwards.
Have a great spring of sun and mushroom hunting, God
Bless…….
I always have time for YOU or your Referrals.
