We are starting to ramp down our homeschool a little as we move toward our ski weekend. Lorena spent a couple of hours really cleaning out the car. She is going to get a screw to fix one of the cupholders for the back seat that has been hanging from two out of three screws for about a year now. The cruise control and horn quit working and the airbag light came on, on the mini-van several weeks back and it has been bugging me. I did not want to drive over to Bend with the car in that condition so I got on the internet to find out what was wrong. It turns out that there was a recall on a part that causes exactly those problems. When I called the dealership, I was told they could have me in and get the thing fixed in a half an hour. Lorena is taking it in today right after the kids swimming lesson.
I am continuing to work on my Linux program. It is really amazing that it is so easy to program for Linux now. KDevelop is quite a good development environment and in doing a project like this I am really learning a lot. I still do not know how to do many important things, but I am learning all the time and having a lot of fun with it.
