I always try to help Rachael with Hubbard/Rockford if asked. They had me down for 3 days but at last minute asked for the other day. Work at Rockford is slow so working isn't hard, but not following my usual routine tired me out a bit. I still had some work I could take care of up in Cullman. Some bushhog work and other little items but the high temps held me back a bit. I did ride my bike a little and got in some of my walking in addition to some chores. Max needed to be delivered to Charlotte, SC for his drum major camp. I volunteered to take him.

I'm far more interested in giving the kids their Christmas. Ruth and I have traded time so we'll each have a day off for the holiday. I'll take Christmas Eve off. She'll have Christmas day. Then back to the routine.
