This and That
Well after all the drama of the last couple of weeks, here's hoping for a nice quiet stretch around here. I know I could certainly use the stress break.
Andrew's game was cancelled on Saturday, the air was still so smokey that all athletic events in the area were called of this past weekend. He was pretty bummed. So instead of just Adam both boys went to judge and assist with their dojo's black belt test on Saturday. Then on Sunday they went in the morning for the final stage of the test, the 5 mile run.
Sam and I decided to take advantage of the unexpected time and go out looking for a new front door. We've been talking about replacing ours for a while now. Who knew there are so many different kinds of entry doors? Thankfully we found something we both liked so it's been ordered and should come in about six weeks.
The high school directory is complete except for the adminstrative pages and I'll finish that and put the final touches on everything sometime this week. It doesn't need to go to the printer until the 24th of this month but I want this project over so I don't have to think about it anymore and I can move on to some things I need to get done for the LAFSC asap.
Workwise things have been very quiet lately. I'm waiting on new books to arrive for reviews and I've got one short article due next week but the research is done so that will go quickly once I sit down to write it up. I've got two more article ideas rattling around in the old brain but need to see who might be interested in them.
This next weekend, October 7th through the 9th is the Starfleet Regional Conference that's being hosted here in LA by the chapter the boys and belong to, the USS Angeles. We'll be helping out with that on Saturday and Sunday and I'm looking forward to seeing old friends from out of the area at that. Steph's coming home as well and unfortunately we won't see much of her but she's got a four day break in two weeks right after her midterms so we'll have plenty of time then. I doubt she'll actually be around the house much this weekend anyway as a couple of her best friends from high school will also be in town and I know they all plan to get together and share their college stories.
There's no school tomorrow due to Rosh Hashanah so I promised Adam we'd go to the zoo in the morning to see Vern.
