On Thursday I have to fly to San Jose to visit a company named Western Digital for ATS. This is the first time I will be away long enough that the kids will have to do two days worth of work before I do the correction. It was bound to happen pretty soon. I am amazed that it took so long. I really think it will go OK. Our system works fairly smoothly and the kids have not trouble getting the work finished. We will probably have to do something over the weekend, but it should not be too bad. Lorena has her first math mid-term tonight so I should get off a little early to get the plans made up for them. We have our Wednesday night Bible study tonight, too, so our schedule might be just a little tight.

I DON’T HAVE TO GO!!! We figure a way how to engineer a possible solution without the aid of vision. It could be a real coup for us. We will get the part in from San Jose tomorrow which will give us a chance to do some engineering while holding the part rather than just looking at pictures.

Kelly and Christian had their last swimming lesson of this session today. They will have one more session between now and the end of the school year. Neither Kelly nor Christian passed on to the next level, but both of them are very close. Christian is on level six and Kelly is on level 9. The highest level is ten before they go into life saving. I hope there is some way I can keep Kelly interested and continuing to take level ten until they have both completed that level. At any rate, Kelly will have level ten for next year and I expect Christian will move quickly now through levels seven eight and nine.
