I spend a couple hours up at the school this morning convincing them that the VA should pay for the current class I’m taking. I think I got my point across, and hopefully I will see positive results in next months check. I’m keeping my fingers crossed, but as with all government related things, I’m not holding my breath.
We have a relief from the heat today with overcast skies and cool weather. After the past couple days I think we all appreciate this change! #1 & #2 are tucked back in #1’s room playing their Gameboys, and #3 is firmly entrenched on the PS2 in the front honing his gaming abilities with the kind of attention a bull dog gives a bone.
Hubby and I are planning a run down to Kelso on Sunday to bask in Drum Corps and revisit old friends we come across there. #1 & #2 have talked us into letting them stay home during that time, but #3 wants to come with us. With Hubby and #3 to gang up on me, I strongly suspect our diets on Sunday will consist mostly of items found on the Taco Bell menu.
#2 asked me the other day if I had any plans for one of my empty containers. I asked him why, and he responded with the question that if I didn’t, could he have it to grow something in? He wants to have a mini-garden, and try growing a rose. So… I told him to go mow some lawns to earn some money, and I would take him to select a rose and get the soil for the container. He seems quite excited about it. Only time will tell if the excitement continues.
