week 8

Went down to Jackson this past weekend to a regional fighter practice. Caillin was still too weak and sick to fight, but we did get Lindsey and Kenneth authorized to fight. So now they will be ready for Gulf Wars.

It was kinda a drippy cold day, but we did get to have lunch with Benji, Peyton, Jack and big Jon. Very nice indeed.

Tuesday steve's eye swoll up again, but it went down in about 48 hours this time. Still no idea what causes it, but he had skipped his allergy med that day, so he'll need to be more attentive to that.

Wednesday we got a new septic tank for the house. The guy came out with a backhoe and did the entire job by himself, very impressive really. It made an entirely impressive mess of the back yard too. That will probably take a long time to get back to normal.

Read: Middlesex. I had no idea what this was going to be about, but bought it because of it's awards and hype. I didn't really enjoy it much at all, but I did finish it hoping that it would improve.

Ill Wind. the first of the Weather Warden books by Rachel Caine. I will loan this one to Brenna, it is kinda similar feel to the Dresden book, only better. I devoured this one and have put the next one on my wish list.
