Ooops....

Hold on if shopping for dad. In the car on the way to April's Saturday I found out that it is not Chuck Norris but Clint Eastwood. So if you went out and bought a bunch of Chuck Norris movies take them back and exchange them for Clint Eastwood, actually it sounded like you would be safe with any old western.

The family party was lonely without everyone there. I sure wish we could all get together, put our own selfish interests aside and just enjoy one anothers company. Maybe that is too much to ask.

How about we all get together for Thanksgiving next year. It's a pretty harmless Holiday, and plenty of time to get back home. Just a thought.

Ok, so I am in the process of taking a break from studying for finals. I realized earlier today that my math final is tomorrow not Wednesday. I had planned to finish everything else today and focus on math tomorrow. No such luck, oh well, hopefully it will come back to me. I have fried my brain for tonight and now I am going to bed. Maybe if I sleep on my math book I will absorb it in my sleep? Wouldn't that be nice.

Now for my next stresser. Corbin has a girlfriend. Yes, it is true. In fact he has spent the last two evenings, plus every day last week with her, and the week before that, you get the picture. He is with her all the time. She is a nice girl but really, what can they have to talk about. If they aren't together then they are texting. It's been a while since I was his age but don't they get sick of each other? I keep telling him that if he keeps this up he is going to have to buy her a pretty nice Christmas gift or else they will be sick of each other and break up. We can hope.

Tis the Season

Today is Friday and instead of going to school today was set aside as a study day for finals. I spent the last three days studying for a math test and still I'm not sure if I passed. I decided to take the day off and go shopping. I had done very little since Thanksgiving and was reminded at the dentist (did I mention that I broke a tooth and had to get a crown, merry Christmas to me.) that Christmas is only 2 weeks away. Needless to say I dragged Heidi along for company and we went to several stores. I believe I got most and then some for everyone on my list.

Family members, dad could use a new wallet, bilfold style, early movies with Chuck Norris or Charles Bronson (Yes, I'm serious), movie passes are always a good idea, and maybe black socks. Those first items were suggestions from Euniece

Korinn's birthday is next week, she is going to be 8 and getting baptized on Jan 3. She really wants Grandpa Brenchley to baptize and confirm her. I am trying to get her to allow Corbin to do the baptism so dad won't have to get wet, we will see. Of course you are all invited to join us.
