Thanks Guy's. Sounds like the Wife will be going down first. They are waiting for a neuro surgen to become available for me. Wife may have Cancer. They arn't ruling anything out at this point. They wan't her down there ASAP. I'll be staying here when she gose down and look after the boy's. And If I leave and go down before She gets back we have friend's we trust to watch the boy's. If she is termal than the boy's and I will go down and stay with her to the end.

I've been around, just haven't been posting much, and when I do it's ususlly been in the Club, aka "The Hood"!!

Took classes all summer with my daughter. That was petty cool. Have quit my job at the high school working with the learning disabled and driving the bus, and the one at the B&B as their bookkeeper. I am getting ready to finish my last year of college so I can finally get a real job!! It should be an easy year for me since I have already taken all the classes I need except the engineering and electrical classes.

I have an interview next Wednesday with PGE to join their apprenticeship program working on the wind generators while I finish this last year!! I am so jazzed!! I love it when it all comes together!! Whoo Hoo!!!

Way to go there. You'll love the wind turbines. I did when I was commisioning them. The view from on top of a 80 meter tower is magnificent. Rex is right I stiil have the pictures from the top and the sunrises and sunsets are a sight to see. I get home where I can do something i'll post some from when I worked them. Who needs to go to the gym after that 20 minute arobic workout to climb all that way packing your kit. I lost 20 pounds of fat and felt better than ever after 2 months doing it. You just have to watch the restarts after a snow or ice storm. We had 2 trucks totaled and a guy had a 200lb chunk of ice land in the front seat next to him.
