Today was perfect weather around here. It never got too hot and we were able to do some work in the back. Today we pulled up the fencing enclosing the back of the house. (the dog kennel is still there) Now the back yard feels more open to the rest of the property. I don't know what we are doing with the extra wire, I hate to just throw it away. Tim did some more raking, but I do think he has finally given up until next year. The dear have come through and eaten all of my plants. It's kind of funny how every thing now looks locus has been through.
The last week has been a bit hectic for me. I am very glad it is over with. Took two mid terms this week.; didn't do to well on the science test but hopfully I do well on the next 4 so I can get my grade up. the Humanities wasn't too hard, just very long. I will be taking the math mid term this coming week. It shouldn't be too hard since we can have two pages of notes. The younger kids at school are still having a hard time behaving. I think we could all use a long vacation from them.
Tim is now spending a lot of time in Susanville gettin the generator up and running, the security part. This is what got him out of Grand Jury duty.
Nathan is moving right along in school. He is the top student in his chemistry class. He is thinking about joining the tennis team, I don't think they start up until after winter. (I know, totally out of the norm for him) He is playing in the pep band and we are working on figuring out how to let him play with the band on a regualr basis, he can't move any classes around because they are only offered once.
Mike and Carina are heading to Reno today to see a concert and hang with some friends over night. They will be picking up Raynelle' and bringing he here on their way back. Raynelle' will only be here for a couple days but it's better then nothing.
Chris is still looking for a job and teaching music. He spend a lot of time helping Holly with homework over the phone and the internet.
Well, I have a child patiently waiting for me to get finished with the computer.

Quick Update
Just realized I have deglected my updates of this site.
I have been busy trying to stay up with school work so I don't have to work on the week ends. this week end was a bit different because I have mid-terms. I have taken one and have two more to go. The science one will be a challenge because it is eight chapters and no notes. the math one will be okay, we don't get graded on the right answer but rather how we solvedit. We can have somen notes so don't have to cram my brain full of stuff.
This last week was Homecoming at the high school so it was a hectic week. Nathan is playing in the pep band so he was busy too. He is enjoying playing but the games are pretty cold.
It is suppose to rain the first part of the week and things are starting to freeze over night so I guess we are well into our fall season. Tim is working hard to stay ahead of the pine needles fall on the ground. He hopes to have more ground cleaned then the end of last year.
Tomorrow is a day off for the kids but I still have to go to work. We are doing training for something, no sure what. We do get a catered lunch but the last time I had food from them it wasn't too good.
Work is going well for Tim. He will be busy with the security for the generator. He wil be working on it for a couple weeks so he'll be going to Susanville quite a bit. Chris and Nathan are doing fine. Nathan is finding school boring. There are so few classes available that it is hard to get any kind of variation in the day.
Well, time to get ready for tomorrow. Going in at 7:00 am but don't have to start training until 8:30. Oh well, there is always something to do to get ready for teaching one or more of my classes
