Well, we're sitting here trying to enroll Stephen at the University of Alaska at Fairbanks. They apparently have lots of good online courses you can take to get your degree. He's hoping to enroll in at least one class for the Spring semester just to make some progress in finishing his degree. The deadline for enrollment is November 1st.

Tess is at cheerleading practice and Donald is probably on the bus on the way home from work at this point. Tess won't be home till after 9pm. She's getting a ride home from her friend.

I picked up a light green recliner at the Thrift Store today for 40 bucks. This gives us something else to sit on in our living room. Previously there was only a rocking chair and a horsehair sofa. I'm convinced those horsehair sofas were designed to make unwanted guests so uncomfortable that they would not stay long. As for our sofa, my family bought it when I was in high school at an auction for $50. My father reupholstered it. But it's still pretty uncomfortable. My parents would make my dates perch on the edge of it while they waited for me to be ready... Maybe I should keep it in a convenient position for when Tess starts dating... Hmmm.

Its great that Stephen is going to try and finish up his degree. Is he enjoying his current job with more to do? Are there any singing groups there for Donald? Are you talking about that horse hair sofa you just had to have? :o) When are you going to DC for your interview?

Stephen's up and down with the workload at his office. But his first official business cards came in, so he's pleased... ;o)
No singing groups currently for Donald (except the voices in his head).
Yup, that horsehair sofa.
DC oral assessment is March 30.
