* Picked up 13 yr old and mentioned that the bus people had not contacted us yet and the teacher said she’d look into it. Apparently he had a good day and they are trying to “slowly” get him into classes. Sounds to me like they are doing academics within the special setting and not mainstreaming into regular classes.
* Dropped 13 yr old at home and pickedup 7 yr old from friend’s house to talk with his teacher. Had an opportunity to be more social with his friend’s dad than I have in the past and that was a good feeling.
* Came back and chopped some wood and the neighbor across the creek was burning rubbish hollered at me and we exchanged niceties something that hasn’t happened in the 6.5 years I’ve been here and that made me feel good.
* Going to settle in for some programming now.

From the same website, Great Moments in Sports has some funny ones. Almost every picture is sexual in some way (something falling out of clothes somewhere). The 3 bull fighters picture is the kind that should make a guy consider a new profession!

* Went to overly long meeting where I broke my own rules of efficient meeting running and chatted too much. Good lunch. Good company. Baby was wacky tired.

What I’ve done to that poor tree is sinful! The neighbor had a beautiful oak tree felled by a tornado. The power company brought it to the ground in huge chunks and I traded for it. Gave some electrical work in exchange for the tree. However, I asked that the power company cut it into manageable sized pieces so I could cord it and burn it in the wood stove. As I’m cutting this Oak up (some pieces nearly 4.5 feet in diameter) I’m realizing that it should have been boarded and planked. This would cuts so cleanly I could be making shingles with it! The grain is so fine it would make an elegant paneling some expensive board room. I, or the home owner, could have made a fortune keeping it in one chunk and having a crane take it to some lumber company.
Call it “live and learn.” Oh the other hand, I am getting tremendous pleasure out of cutting it and warming my house. The fire burns long and hot and produces a wonderful scent.
