An Accomplishment, A Funny and A Busy Afternoon

 


LOOK AT THAT!!!! Physical Science is a course Melia was taking at Chugiak. We enrolled her in Acellus Academy. We couldn't enroll her for 1/2 a course, so she did the ENTIRE course and finished it! Look at that grade - an A!!!!! She is on track to finish the remaining 3 courses she had started at Chugiak by the end of March.  Our plan is to then take the 2nd half of the courses she took her freshman year.  She is getting it done and we couldn't be more impressed with her! 

Word about Mountain Meadows, Dad's home, is getting out and they have had many new residents move in. Dad called and could barely suppress his humor. One of the new gentlemen evidently wanders. As he was getting his pills at bedtime one of the employees mentioned he should close his door. She said she doesn't think the mister would take anything but he has been wandering. Dad laughed out loud. The gentlemen had come in while Dad was laying down, looked around and left with Dad's walker. He told the employee he just let him leave and figured he'd get his walker in the morning as he was already in bed. They went and retrieved it for him.  I told Dad sometimes as we age our minds get a bit confused. ::snort:: 

I got a message mid-day that Arielle was in bad shape, and I'll spare you TMI.  Benny (8) was valiantly doing all he could to help. I headed over after nap time. We did dishes, played Castle Keep, read Narnia and I fed them dinner. I stayed until Cory came home. 

While it was too cold to play outside today (negative temps), their garage is outfitted for kids. We spent a good 20 minutes burning off energy in the garage.

Wrestling!

Michael took Melia to a sibling game night at Nolan's and called to ask what I'd like him to order at a favorite restaurant of ours. We met in town, enjoyed a quiet dinner and visit....and that salmon is STILL in the fridge.
