We had our normal routine today of work and school. I took Heidi for a run and about passed out with how humid it is here. I feel kind of guilty saying that knowing that our families and friends back in Bend and Anchorage are having cold weather and snow. Guess humid is OK!
One of the kids who shall not be named had a really hard time getting in the mood for school today. He had to work outside with Stace while I was on phone calls and still made somewhat of a scene. I guess public embarrassment does not slow him down when he has a bad attitude day. Unfortunately he had to stay in the trailer with me while Stace and the other kids went to the swimming pool. We hope tomorrow will be a better day for him as it is Brynna's birthday and she is going to be a TEENAGER! I can't believe the little girl we brought home from the hospital is already entering teenage years.
She is growing into quite the responsible adult already. There are some plans for her and Stacey to spend some girl time together doing girl things like shooting skeet, wrestling some gators and repacking our trailer bearings with grease. :-) Can't give away the real plans as that might ruin the surprise.
We did have a surprise tonight in that we kept hearing a hooting sound outside. When Brighton took Heidi for her last walk of the night he saw an owl flying between trees. He talked with one of our friendly neighbors here and he said that the owls hunt cats in this area! Guess that is one way to deal with a stray cat population. Between the gators in the lake here and the owls it is not a good place to be a small animal.
