Life

Yup, life is very busy. Not as busy as last week but still busy. T finally got the boat to start Sunday evening. It seems like he solves one issue and discovers one or two more. We're not surprised and had an idea it wouldn't be easy but we'd just like it to work so we can go to the lake with it. T never ceases to amaze me.

J is doing ok at school. He's already had one meltdown. He didn't have to pay much attention to the classroom teacher last year because he had packets of work each day from the ESL teacher. This year they're trying to integrate him more into the regular class and he won't pay attention. My guess is that he's never really paid attention in school. He also wants to play fall ball. We're working on getting him signed up for that. He told me that he needed a mitten so he could play baseball. I told him it's called a glove, a baseball glove. Or sometimes a mitt but not a mitten. Too funny.

A is busy with school, soccer, and friends. She's still working for Nanny and looking for a job. I came up with an idea for her this morning and if that pans out it would be a little income. She comes up with enough for gas in her car (or I should say the car we let her use) and helps some with her cell phone bill.

R's birthday is this weekend and JT will be gone on a training mission of some sort. Poor R. At least she has the dog and cat to keep her company. JT just got a promotion so now he is a Private, First Class. He also did something before a board and won second place. He was the lowest ranking presenter, or whatever it's called, and he placed second. They want him to do it again next month. I'm not clear at all as to what it is exactly. I just know that they were excited and happy about it.
