Bball at the Joneses

Neighbor kids came over and shot hoops with Evey and Boyd last night. Me, Adro and Judy sat in the garage and watched. It was a fun Friday night! 

Wet, too. Cathy told me we've had 8 inches of rain this week. We've now had 9 straight days of rain. 10 is the historic record, according to Lezak. Crazy! 

Shinobi is BACK, baby!

We've been playing in the HOJ. The new neighbor kids too. It's a lot of fun! Screen looks better than when it was new. 

Found a guy in Lawrence who likes to refurbish them and keep them original. Feels good to have it back. I've owned this machine since 2001. 

Had it back for two weeks now. Still haven't beaten the game yet. Soon! 

It’s Friday!

The weekend is here, thank goodness!

The weather has been spectacular these last few days. Yesterday I clocked out at 4 and mowed the lawn. It looks GOOD! And now we have 7 days of rain in the forecast... bring it! 

Yesterday after I finished mowing I grabbed a beer and sat down at the HOJ. Evey joined after taking Koko for a walk. Adro and Boyd and the cat were there too. I put on some music and grilled a few hot dogs. We ate outside and watched the sun go down. So pleasant! Great evening.

Summer break is almost here. Only 8 more school days! Evey will be a high schooler and this guy will be a 4th grader. Crazy! 

No complaints here!

We got to see Evey perform on stage tonight and she was awesome!

She played two different characters in "Complaint Box // Lemonade." I've got a few clips ready for YouTube, I'll just have to get them ready. (And get connected to internet.)

This class caused a lot of stress for Evey, almost daily we'd talk about 'the drama in drama.' Meanwhile... straight As in science, math, etc...

Well, that class is pretty much over and Evey is staring down high school. In the meantime her class all peaked at the same together and it was a big win! 

Hard to say why some classes are so rough and random while others make sense and you can control what you can control... but Evey, you were fantastic tonight. Well done!

On to the next challenge!
