Diane's Adventure

As my golf cart is out of commission until we get the connectors fixed Diane arrived on her golf cart with 2 of her grand children offering to take 2 of my grand children for a ride.

They were more than happy to load up and off Diane went. She went around the barn and over to Spark and Rhonda's house through the fields. As they were heading to the playground  up the steep hill the golf cart died. Just then her phone rang and it was Dr. Adamson he is heading through the Peoria area and wants to meet with Tim Reinhard. Diane, while holding Crew tries to call mom's place to let Tim know and Crew keeps bumping the phone, she ends up calling Ruth, Rachel and finally mom who gave Diane Tim's phone number before finally getting Tim. Tim was driving in Pekin and was just going to try to remember the phone number. Diane was trying to do all of this while backing down the steep hill hanging on to Crew and Taegan. Taegan was unloaded at the bottom of the hill and then Diane asked Braelyn and Irelyn to push the golf cart up the hill and guess what? THEY DID IT! Once the golf cart was up to the top, the brake was set and Diane had to walk back down the hill to pick up Taegan while carrying Crew. The rest of the way to Diane's house is pretty much down hill or flat so the kids were loaded back up, a good push and they were off. She got the cart to her house, unloaded all 4 kids and placed the charger on the cart. When I offered to walk over to pick up my kids she said, "let them stay, they are all playing nicely"  but before she realized what was happening Taegan had already found Ebby's food, dumped it in the water then dumped the water all over her kitchen floor. While she was cleaning that up she suddenly realized Braelyn was missing. She is calling Braelyn who isn't answering and living by a pond is always nerve racking when one is watching a child who can't swim and gets outs without making any noise and that means panic time for Diane. She found Braelyn down the basement and explains she must answer when called. After hearing all of this I figured Diane has it all under control so I went back to doing laundry. then thought, if this isn't written down it will be forgotten. So no Diane I'm not playing on the computer when suppose to be working, nope I'm writing down your adventures in babysitting.
