My First Blog
Right now, the telephone is ringing in the back ground. My wife answers it and passes it on to my daughter. It's probably one of her many friends or her boyfriend. I can hear the canaries (all twelve of them) in their large bird aveary in the living room singing and chirping loudly. We bought two of them about two years ago. We were going to see if we could raise some baby canaries and sell them. Well, they mated and had several, (now twelve total), but never have sold one - not for lack of trying, but simply because my wife and daughter named them all and of course once that happens, they are pets for life! It's the same thing with all the chickens we have. My wife and daughter named each one, and now they are all pets for life.
Right now, the curtains in the window of my "office" are drawn because its raining outside and it looks kind of dismal. There's lots of yard work to be done, but I can't seem to get motivated.
My "office" or "computer room" or whatever you want to call it is really a small bedroom with two computers. One computer is mine, and the other computer (the best one we have) is a new Dell computer that I bought my wife and daughter for Christmas this year. It use to be a real pain to share one computer between the three of us. But now with two computers, we are able to do what we want without having to wait for someone else to "get off" the computer.
My daughter had drivers-ed this morning, and it was her first "free-way" drive. I was a little nervous since it was raining and she had never even driven in the rain before. But she did good. She had a little practice last night and last week-end. She is doing good, but as with any new driver, there is lots of room for improvement.
She is in a hurry to grow up - like most kids her age. She wants the freedom, but probably not the responibility that comes with it. She's really smart, strait A student in school. I never have to push her. She tackles that responsibility on her own.
You know what she did this spring?... She started up the lawn more for the first time this year after it sat all winter. She mowed a few laps around the yard, but didn't finish because the mower was throwing too much rock and sticks and other winter debris that had not been raked up yet.
She's a great girl. We are extremely lucky to have a girl like her. She loves people, and seems to want to gravitate toward a career that would help people. She would make a great nurse, but I think that she wants to be a psychologist. She loves to volunteer in community projects through school, and also loves to organize them as well.
Well, I have busy work to do. So its bye bye for now.
