I landed back in Denver yesterday around 10:10am after a quick 2 day trip to the Big Apple. The misses was home nursing her never ending headache and the boys were at school. I unpacked my suitcase and headed downstairs to pay some bills and get some computer work done. This morning I have a Bocelli presentation for the Colorado team at 9am and then need to head to Boulder for a meeting.
It was a bit stormy yesterday with a little rain but nothing like the day before from what I’m told. The next few days are supposed to be a mix of rain and snow which is too bad since it’s the weekend.
The oldest is playing away on his new alto recorder and has already amassed a number of colored ribbons for passing level after level. Of course this means non-stop playing around here but at least the alto is a much lower pitch than the first model he had. It’s hard to believe but the boys have something like 6 weeks of school left and then it’s summer.
Both boys were working the neighborhood hard selling an assortment of flowers, candy and candles to raise money for the school. The youngest went to all the neighbors and at dinner told us he was going to let one of the neighbors use one of our checks since he didn’t have his checkbook. We quickly explained why that wouldn’t work! They’re both up to about $75 or $100 each and Uncle T is going to take the oldest ones form to the bank next week. That’s a bit of an advantage so we’ll have to assign Grandma to the youngest. I’m sure we or he will be calling each and everyone of you this weekend as well! It’s good they’re so excited to do something to help the school when it doesn’t directly benefit them. Mom has already bought something and now I’m getting the full press. In fact, I’m telling him right now how much each of you will buy from him to deflect the $24 worth of flower bulbs he’s pressuring me to buy. He’s quite the salesman, wonder where he gets that?
Not much else going on so time to run to the gym before the kids get up and we all get going. Hope you all are well and have some fun plans for the weekend. Take care and God Bless,
