Sorry About The Slow Update...





I haven't posted anything for a while because I was waiting for one teacher to post my final grade for last semester, which he did today.

So, last semester went very well. I got an A in my math, health and Photoshop class and a B in my modern art history class. I start summer school June 8th and will be taking swimming @ 5:45 AM (whee!) Mon-Thurs., as well as beginners astronomy and economics. Summer school ends August 7th and then I will have five classes in Fall starting August 22nd; so I will have a little break.

Sarah is working more hours at Northwest Exteriors because business is picking up again, which is great. She has also recently organized all of her recipes as well as grabbed 150 new ones (maybe more)and has started putting them in a binder with pictures. She estimates that we can have something new each week for the next five years or so.

We recently got new "blackout" curtains for our bedroom as well as a sofa/bed for our office. The curtains are awesome! They block out 99% of all light and they make our room really dark at night; I highly recommend them to everyone. Wal-Mart+$22 per panel=awesome. Our sofa/bed came from Ikea and will enable us to watch free TV from our computor comfortably as well as allow people to stay with us overnight. It is small, lightweight, cheap, new, and has no metal bars to stick in your back when you are sleeping! You can't for anything more.

We have gone on a few hikes lately, one with friends, and the other alone. We also went to Stinson Beach with Becky, John and Roshni for lunch. I stepped in poo on the beach (barefoot), that was fun. What more can be said other than we love hiking and we love our friends? Nothing more. :)

We also got a bicycle for Sarah from Craigslist for $40. We have been riding together for the past week to get in better shape and we really enjoy it. The time goes by quikly and we get a great cardio workout.

BIG NEWS! Steve barfed a hairball the other day and we got him to do it on tile! Normally he does it on the carpet which makes it very difficult to clean, but this time we were able to grab him when he was making his "barf noises" and take him to the bathroom tile floor. I realize it's gross to talk about cat barf, but when you have a cat that always barfs on the carpet, never on tile, you would get excited too if it finally made it to tile. :)

Not much else is going on. I am still volunteering on highschool staff at church and Sarah has started doing "greeting" a couple weekends a month too.

I'm glad Steve made it to the tile to barf. That is monumentous. Parents do the same thing with kids, brag about gross things like that. It's the little things that make your day.
