To Move or Not to Move? Not!


Here is our girl a few days after she got hit in the eye practicing fast pitch with a friend (last week). Wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, but the first day it was swollen around her eye. Should've got a pic then. Right now she is at camp, and we missed her terribly at our fast pitch game last night in Kadoka. We got killed! Our other pitcher did a good job, but she threw perfect pitches, the kind that every batter can get a real hit on! And they did, everytime... right to our little 10 year olds covering the outfield. Needless to say, they scored big! 20:2 (okay, we were short handed; we were missing 4 of our older girls, which is why we played the little ones. They had fun, though, and learned lots!) Our slow pitch was good though. Katlin pitched that game and did a great job. 5:2; we won! Woo Hoo!
Okay, time for the big news! Are you ready? Things changed a bit yesterday when Barry and the Hustead brothers sat down to go over some figures on cost for remodeling pole barns/equipment needed, etc. and they have decided they aren’t ready for Barry to move just yet. (I think they weren't prepared for the costs involved on top of Barry's salary.) Therefore, we are going to continue to do their signs, but from our own shop, at least for now. Perhaps we’ll try again next year, but I have a feeling not. So we won’t be selling either place as of yet. Strange how after 17 years of self-employment and one week of work, Bary is once again self-employed. Ha! And yay! It gives us a little more time to finish our house and our sign shop remodel projects! They have been extensive.
