How you been?

Kid eating you out of house and home yet?

Been good.  Been busy too...  Interviewing for a different job Friday.  If it works out, my classroom will go from a computer lab to a school bus.

Yes, he is, usually around $75 of formula a week, possibly more!  Along with stage 2 foods and whatever else  [laugh]

He's got two teeth and a small vocabulary at 7 months.  Amazing thing he is.

Glad to hear he's doing well.

More money in bus driving, or is the politics of teaching dragging you down?

Politics is driving the 'looking' but money is similar.  I'd be training school bus drivers if it all works out.  I'd be in for more of a commute, but I only drive 7 miles a day currently, so most anything would be a longer commute.

How's the north?  We're currently shopping for Christmas trees in shorts down here.

It's been high 30's in the morning and 50 by afternoon. It was a little cooler this morning.

Plenty of rain. Very un-winter like.

How is it?

I'm sure he's hoping it's squirrel free.

Very un-winter like here too.

Frost this morning, mid 60s by this afternoon.  Even Christmas Day is looking to be in the 60s.  It snowed on Christmas here a couple years ago.

Global hardening?  I thought the opposite happens with age.

No no-the ground. It's definitely getting harder. I can't think of any other reason I can't lay on the concrete for hours without it hurting any more.

Seems to be colder, too.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

You want global hardening?

Wait 30 years and fall off a motorcycle. ;)

In thirty years I hope I'm still falling off motorcycles.  :P


I had to scrape the ice off my windows yesterday morning.


I don't even know where my ice scraper is.
