I had a very busy weekend. On Friday at 9:00 pm a brother called me and said someone had to cancel on the circuit assembly and could I be the fill in for the part. It is an interview on some personal questions. I didn't sleep much that night. I am greatful that I was thought of even if it was for the second round of picks. Saturday at 8:oo I had to be ready to go to Charleston to give the rehearsal in front of the CO. I was so nervous. It went well. Sitting there with all of these long time pioneers and brothers that extend themselves made me feel very humble. I am looking at my circumstances to make sure I am doing all that I can. They are such happy people with such good experiences to share. What a satisfing life style.

Todd had the talk today and everyone appreciated it. He did such a good job.

Tomorrow we have school to do, then I have to paint the pillars on a building while Todd replaces the toilet and the boys are mowing the lot. OHHHH I get to order my very own washer and dryer tomorrow!! It will be a long day.

waaahoooo

Chico came home this morning at 5 am. I am really glad because he is special to Clancy. Clancy's first cat Audrey---which he loved--- got hit by a car. Then Chico disappeared. He was determined not to have another pet. We think Chico was locked in the neighbors house. If I came across him I probably would take him also. ( Country cat---nice personality-- who knows--did someone drop him off?/ that sorta thinking)

I ordered a new washer and dryer today. WV is having a no tax day if you buy an energy star appliance. Then lowes had an additional 10% along with the WV match. All together I got 22% off. The new Cabrio washer does three loads and does not have a beaterbar in the center. Todd is roughing in the laundry room today.

URRGHHH I still cannot download pictures to this site. I will keep trying.

Today we started school. Clancy did very well. Collin always has a great attitude but finds it hard to get into the new routine. We spent the day negotiating what was expected.
Clancy's cat Chico disappeared which has made us all very sad. Momma kitty disappeared two weeks ago which was unusual. Collin was setting a live trap this morning and came rushing back scared to death. He swears he heard a mountain lion. I know the neighbor says he has seen one. The last time he had a wild story---so I thought---- it was true. Maybe we do have one. Something is getting our cats.

Todd has put doors on our house. They are really pretty. We have been without doors for so long I do not really like having doors after all. The winter will demand that we have them though. So, now I have to open a door to let the dogs out.... bummer. It sounds silly but we have been living in an atrium for so long now I miss it.
