Over the weekend I had to do yardwork, like rake pinecones and dump them into our neighbors burn pile. It was very boring definitely when my brother barely helped at all. My brother just rode the four wheeler around since my parents weren’t home and I had to rake all the pinecones into garbage cans. Over the weekend we also took our camper down to Cooler Valley RV to get it winterized. At night I got to play my computer and iPad so it wasn’t too bad at night besides the fact that when I had to rake it hurt my back a lot. But eventually it started to not hurt anymore. Over the weekend I also visited my step grandpa, he just moved into his house from the hospital last night. His cancer has been spreading

    Surf n’ turf is the ultimate Sunday meal that would brighten even the darkest days of prison.
