in the forest, on a Saturday

53 minutes

less than an hour to go and I am not nervous at all.
soon my absolutely beautiful son will take vows with his
delightful sweet heart, and our family will grow and change forever.
Congratulations Jared and Amirose...
Now I need to go check on my farmtown crops.....

Thanks for your prayers... Today is a blessed day

terrriffic

hello
I am here and busy
and joyful that so much has been done
in TRUE SCHMIDT STYLE
there is much left for the last 24 hours
( the wedding is at 6:30 Saturday)
but we have many able hands helping
and many people praying ( like you!)

It will be great
and YES I WILL take credit
for being a terrific " father of the Groom"

SO much love in this place.....

progress

worked hard with a crew on Saturday
making the wedding site more accessible and
more comfortable.
it looks good
and the plans are coming together well
I think these two families will be a good team

the next three weeks will be very busy.
I will do my best to pop in... but not sure
look for me on FaceBlob too, but less often.

Jared has big plans and I am helping as much as I can.
Its going to be a HOT summer here.

dream me a dream

I am surprised - puzzled as I Awake from this dream.

I have come out of a house ( in NY somewhere) because my father has just arrived from ( i think ) The City, I need to pack still, but I ask the cab driver if he can wait for us. He says he does not think so and I tell him I will call another cab and he says I can have King come pick us up. I am not happy about that because I know King to be a drug user and seller, and he ripped me off at least once when I tried to give him some work to do ( another LONG blog post about that)
As I look into the cab I can not see the driver, but I recognize his voice, it is Al, one of my labor helpers. when I wake the name on the phone is Al, I have brought it up while trying to turn off the alarm.
THE WEIRDEST part, when I look into the cab I see two foot tall weeds, and Al is prone, somewhere under the weeds. there is a field inside this cab, blooming of something like wild mustard. Al is clearly UNDER the field, or so it seems to me at the time.
Why is HE coming to get me, or bringing my father ( 30 years deceased) to get me? WHy am I not packed, ready? whoah nellie
