Monday was a great day for me. I had been told that I wouldn't pass the eye test at the DMV because of my left eye by the glasses examiner. The Ortho(whatever) said that I'd Pass it with my new glasses. He was right, I could read the letters on the third line just fine. The only trouble was that I didn't bring my present liscence. The lady that starts the ball rolling said, "Don't worry they have it on the computer" and they did, so all went well. Only misses three questions, the allowed was six, so I was issued a temp certificate, and on to the shops for merchandise!
We had two light tubes installed in our kitchen today. Wanda called yesterday and asked the company if this could be done. They would be out tomorrow, and install them, and they did. Jim, who is manager was the only employee left to do the job, so he came and did a very efficient installation. It was dark by the time he finished, so we are waiting for the morning so we can see the difference in the dining room.
Kelly was telling us about the two second grade boys who were studying artic, came in and she was gone to a meeting. She hadn't locked the door so they went into her file and pulled out their folder and did their work. Kelly noticed this when she returned because the office didn't just seem right. Can't you just see those seven year olders dispatching their responsibilities?
Today I was watching the history channel on lumbering and its history. One man using a belly rope climbed up to the top of a high tree, and chopped off the top so that it could be used as a top anchor for hauling lumber up. I have a picture of my father at the top of one of those trees that he had just topped. History in full life.

Hi Papa, I have a two photos in my big kit that I use to generate a language sample. One photo is a lineman climbing a telephone pole and the other is a man climbing a big redwood tree. Of my older children, I ask them "What's the same about these photos, what's the difference?" It's always interesting to see how the kiddos minds work. If you scan the photo of your dad, I will help you post it to your blog. Love, Kelly
