What's Happening

Just thought I would post and let some of you know what's been happening. The house is sold and closing date is December 16th. It will be a relief to see it gone. Though I liked living there, it was time to move on.

We like the new house really well. It is all on one floor except our bedroom. There is a half washroom on the ground floor and a full bath on the upper. We really don't have to go upstairs during the day unless it's to put something away or to clean. Dakota is enjoying the fenced yard and has fun out there. He seems to be quite happy.

Brandon was very excited on Tuesday. He received his diploma for the Honor Roll and also his Geography Award. Along with it came a check. He has never had a check in his life, so was excited about cashing it. I think he will remember that for his entire life.

He got his progress report and it was excellent. He's doing well in all subjects, though he doesn't like his math teacher. They took away the advanced math that he's been doing for the last two years and he is bored stiff. Why they would do that is beyond me. Seems odd. Since he isn't taking any tech classes this semester, it's more difficult for him. I told him to just do it and get it over with and so did his mother. He likes gym class and science. Those are afternoon classes, so he just has to get through the mornings.

Jordan seems to be doing well in school. He hasn't got his progress report yet, but when he does, I'll update you on that as well.

  6. How great is that? The old house sold. I know you were getting tired of all the necessary repair work that went with it in the past.

    Congrats to both boys...I know Jordan's report will be just as good as Brandon's

  10. Your new house sounds wonderful. I am so glad you are all enjoying it.

    Congratulations to Brandon! He sure is doing a super job. I agree with you. Why take away the advanced math? It makes no sense and the powers that be have to know that leaves the students bored. I'm glad Brandon has the afternoon classes to look forward to. :-)

  11. I'm glad the boys are doing well in school. But don't be surprised about classes being dropped - it's being done is USA too - much of it is due to teacher shortage and/or not enough funding to go around.

    I like a house with no or limited stairs - I'm glad that you are happy there...:)
