It’s been kind of hot here the past couple of days – highs around 80 or a bit above. I’d be uncomfortable and irritated except for the fact that the nights are still in the 50s, so sleeping with the window open is pretty pleasant. It would be GREAT, except for one creepy fact….

Our neighbor a couple of houses away has a windmill in their yard. A rusty windmill that creeks in the wind like a horror movie soundtrack. It’s just loud enough to hear through the window (I run a fan to cover up the sound), but it certainly freaks me out during Council Fire on Saturdays. Lloyd has been walking home with me after work and has heard it. We think that we’re going to sneak over there sometime (under the cover of darkness) and squirt some 3-in-1 oil on it.

Happy Thursday!

Lloyd and I drove out to Colorado to spend Easter with my Dad. All the stars aligned for this trip, and I couldn’t be more grateful. We left Thursday after school and got to the west side of Denver around 10:30, then on to Eckert in the morning. The weather was wonderful – sunny skies […]

Their main reason for coming was to attend Renata’s senior recital. (Their kids are all no-joke amazing.) Kathryn brought heaps of […]

Not much happened this past week. School was school. I have a couple of children who are trying my patience and eroding my soul a little bit, but it’s nothing I can’t handle. Lloyd seems to be doing fine, too. Lloyd’s school had their gala on Friday, so on Wednesday I tried to leave school […]

I remembered! 😀
