After a day full of activities, Lori and I headed out to my 40th high school reunion around 6pm. I wasn’t sure what to expect as the 30th wasn’t all that fun. But surprisingly, it was a good time. Lots of people came up to me but I just couldn’t really remember them. Of course there were a few, Patty Boberschmidt, whose little sister and Aunt Robi were super close friends (and Janice just moved back to Denver, Robi, you two girls need to get together!), along with a couple others but that was it. Still though, lots of people came up to me and some I remembered and others, I pretended to. Harry and I of course looked pretty darn good, meaning we were both in pretty good shape, had all our hair and are overall healthy. There were lots of people that were not doing so well. Some had canes, one guy had a walker, others had other disabilities and lots of people were really heavy. One guy asked if I brought my daughter, meaning Lori. Another girl who we see now and then said Lori looks just like her older daughter so the wife had a good night. We stayed for about 3 hours and had a nice time. Dixie, wait till Lori tells you about your friend Tony’s son, quite the encounter.
When we made it home I made a campfire outside for the boys. They had watched a movie while we were gone. Today Lori wants us all to go for a hike but we may end up going school clothes shopping instead. I paid the school fees on line for both boys last night, can’t believe I have to pay for them to go to school! Jagger is in honors english and science according to his schedule. He tested a few months ago but they don’t tell you the score. I’m surprised, but happy, he isn’t in honors math too. I know he’s smarter and knows more than some of the kids in math but 3 honors classes would be a lot. And math is his best subject! Maybe they only put kids in two at a time or something. He also has Eastern Hemisphere Geography, Band, Computer and something else. Should be quite the change. Now Ty is going into 5th grade so he’s close to being one of the top dogs at his school. We wish he was out of that school as the teachers are great but the quality of students has gone way down since they let everyone open enroll. So now we have lots of kids that come from 10 miles or more away from all kinds of backgrounds. It’s sad that all these kids have infiltrated the school but I understand that their parents want to get them in the best school they can but it’s becoming sort of an inner city school. Oh well, only a year or two more for him.
Last, here’s a comment from Annette,
All political ads are lies. They lie to get into office so they can get rich and do what they want. I wish we were like Canada and run ads for only a month before election. wouldn’t that be nice!
I agree on having them run for only 1 month!
Guess I’ll run, hope all’s well, take care and GB!
