wow I'm psyched to see some posting going on.

That's cool that kent and gretch came to visit. That sounds like it would be fun. It makes me think of the cottage and how we need to do that again, cause it totally ruled.

School is crazy right now. The work isn't so bad, but I just added another class this late in the semester which means major work to catch up. Furthermore, it's an art class...so I have to finish these four drawings by monday I think. I dunno, it's all just building up quickly, and a lot of things aren't nailed down. Like I'm supposed to be doing this prog. proj. with this prof. and we just got my card working yesterday (card that lets me into the area I need to get into). And I also have a lot of assignments this year that are extremely open-ended which is more like a real job and therefore more scary. Like "write a program that demonstrates the concepts of ...." Instead of "right a program that does this specific task"....follow? So it's a bit more nerve recking in that sense because you ask yourself questions like "did I do enough? should I add more?" But the grading is pretty loose from what I understand so I shouldn't worry too much.

Kyle that music stuff sounds totally awesome! I look forward to hearing it on CD!!! Oh yeah, I get my majorly awesome acoustic guitar soon...it is being shipped (don't know if I told you about that kyle, but I got a major deal on a gibson guitar.)

Mom you are the perpetual volunteer. I was telling someone this the other day, actually. You rock. And I think you might be right about that teacher....or completely wrong. Sometimes people like that don't respond well to kindness, they feel insulted...ah...people.

Everyone out there just remember what Dick Van Dyke (Burt) in Marry Poppins said, "You have to grind grind grind at that grindstone."

Hi everyone,
Well, time to start remembering to blog with you all. It is fun to hear what is going on with you. Lynell, I was glad to hear that things are looking up for your dad. That has got to be tough. Have your brothers come back again to be with him or are you the only back up to your mom right now? Kyle-great 'tude on the crabby teacher thing. I would love to be there to see you shove it in her face with an A++++.
I always wonder when I meet someone like that what is going on in their lives now or in the past that makes them this way? Maybe someone needs to be kind to her?
Anywho, as far as my life - I bin busy doing "stuff". Cheerleading coach is pretty time consuming but a joy for me. I don't know if Julie thinks so having her mom as coach, but oh well, the other kids had to suffer through such things. It is hard to believe that after 4 kids, we are going to be empty nesters in a year and a half. Then I won't know what to do with my time. May have to work at something that actually pays me!!!! I think I am the perpetual volunteer.
Bill is outa town right now. He has to be gone next week and the week after for a couple of days each time. "King of the hospital stuff"
Well, "ta ta for now"(Tigger) and "astalavista" dude(Arnold).
Love you all - Sue, Aunt Sue, Mom
