Behold the almost finished seminary classroom! Carpet was just put down this past week. They still need to put up lights, ceiling fans, and projector. Plus, the bottom photo shows that the door separating the classroom from our living quarters still needs to be installed. Between the door and the window will be storage cabinets. It should be done soon.
I received two gift cards to Abuelos (think Macaroni Grill for Mexican food) and we used one yesterday for lunch. Mmmmm. And leftovers! We watched "Stardust" Friday night and "Walt Before Micky" last night. Stardust is always fun. The Disney biopic was rather slow paced (It felt like it was made by the Hallmark channel, to tell the truth) and it was depressing! It took so many tries before Disney became the icon we know today. It was also strange to see John Heder in a serious role (he played Roy Disney). I finished a book called Born on a Blue Day which is a memoir by Daniel Tammet, an autistic savant. I have taught autistic music students so it was quite enlightening.
That is about all the exciting happenings I can think of. Most of the drama we experience this week was through our children. Tamara returning from Arizona/Mexico with a horrible case of food poisoning. Emily enduring a week without Joe and celebrating her 41st birthday with her photography website irretrievably crashing. Elise looking into a media specialist job with Columbia Public Schools (which I really really hope she gets!). Beckie having been called back a third time for a job with the Four Seasons Hotel (another really really hope) and learning that she has to find a new place to live by the end of August. and Sarah getting an interview with the Ogden Nature Center (yet another really really hope). My gray hair got grayer this week over all this tension.
I hope to have great news next week as well as a report of our 4th of July activities.
