Mostly over !

Well, the house is virtually empty now. Some in the garage and a few things are left in the shed - plus a few things around the property - bird feeders, flower pots, etc. It definitely feels do-able by Wednesday which is the drop dead date for the folks to be out.

Jason had baseball pratice this morning - but all other sports were rained out.

Tomorrow, I will ring 2 songs at church with the handbell group. One is "Processional Jubilee" (we actually walk down the center aisle with no music - thereby ringing by memory until we get to our spots and then we ring the rest of the piece using the music.

The other piece is "Cantus Invenilis Youthful Song" which was the winner of the 1999 AGEHR-Area II Young Ringer's Festival Original Composition contest Winner, this piece is full of those special techniques ringers love to play. For example: plucking, thumb damping, echos, shakes and martellatos.

Not much other news. This next week is spring break for the kids. We have appointments scheduled with the orthodontist for Megan (last visit before her braces come off on the 30th), dental cleanings for all three kids on Tuesday, and a Dr. appointment for Ryan on Wednesday.

Sometime this week, I really need to get the vans brakes worked on. Seriously. Does anybody trust Just Brakes? I think they will get the job done quickly - but worry they might "add-on" work I don't need and can't afford. Send me a comment if you can give me any advice! Please!

Take care!
