Hellooooooooo!

How ya'll been? Good. Same here. No news to broadcast worth crowing about.

Tim and I are knee deep into school work, takes up most of the day. I'm trying to get ahead so we won't have to take it on vacation, if we go. Timmy don't know it but we're about 6 days ahead, aiming for 15 or more. With me working 2 days a week, we fall behind and have to spend most all of 3 days to catch up and get ahead a little if we can. He doesn't know we're ahead or he'd balk, my secret. He's doing good, reading 3 and 4 letter words by sounding them out. He's ahead of the teacher, just picked up his blend book and started reading them. Of course I make a BIG thing of it and it spurs him on to do more.

Hubby put in 14 hours overtime today and just got called back in to work again. He was home about 2 hours. I'm going over to the keyboard and do a little practicing while he's gone, he don't like to hear it. I have to play an old pump organ for Nidrah on Wednesday so I'd better brush up, haven't played much in the last 6 years. So long.

GREETINGS

Hubby's home again for the long weekend. He spent the day over at his brothers, working on their backhoe. Timmy and I spent the day on lessons, trying to catch up the days we missed this week. I worked Tuesday and Wednesday, Thursday I took Sarah Belle to the Endodonist in Louisville, down Dixie Hwy. We left my house at 7:oo A.M. and got there at 8:15, she filled out paperwork and was in the chair at 8:30. She spent an hour, reclined in the chair while the lady endodonist and her trusty assistant worked their magic. She left the office $780.00 poorer but feeling much, much better. The toothache left but her jaw was sore from all the pushing they did, filling up the empty root canals. We went to Lowe's and she bought a ceiling fan and we oooed and awed over their lamps and such. Denist said she could have some icecream in an hour so we made a bee line for Arby's and got us a shake. She hadn't eaten in 5 days because of the pain, so she really enjoyed the icecream. We then spotted 'Trader Baker's Mall' so we thought we'd take a peek inside for a few minutes, ha! We came out 6 hours later with lighter pocketbooks. Headed home [moms] and stopped along the way for us each a cup of yogurt and a banana at Georgetown. Got home around 8:00, Sarah packed up and went home, I packed Timmy up and went back to our house to put away our loot. Sarah didn't have room at her house for all her stuff so I took it home with me for awhile. We had a nice, enjoyable time together.
Made lasagna last night, so we have plenty to eat on over the weekend.
Timmy did three lessons today and wrote his cursive E, I, and U's beautifully, some were perfect. I'm really stressing GOOD penmenship and so far, he's doing great. He'll make a perfect letter and I jump up and yell, "yesssss!" and he is beside himself with pride and hugs me so tight I can hardly breath then smothers me with kisses till I holler "Uncle". I told him his letters were lots better than daddy's and as good or better then mine and he was so excited about that fact that I could hardly calm him down. I told him that if he try's and works at it, he'll be able to write better then most grown men. He's already been told in the past that he printed so nice and neat. Hopefully it will stick with him.
Have lots to do before bedtime so I'll talk at ya later.
