Hi Everyone! It's been a while since I've managed to snag the computer. (I just went through 68 emails!) We moved our computer into the back bedroom (Jerilynn's room, except that she's taken over the basement). No sooner than we got the move accomplished than we've had visitors galore: first my two nieces came for a week, then a friend of Brandon's stayed for a couple of days. He'll be back for 2 or 3 more next week while his parents are gone again, then the following week Norman's mom will be here for a week. Since the spare bed is in here as well, that means that I can't get in here either early or late...and the kids seem to have dibs on prime time--Norman taking over when he gets home from work! Finally, I came in this AM at about 0630...to find Brandon sacked out on the bed in here! Too bad-- I get the computer anyway! I am enjoying having the kids friends come over, though. I really missed having my house full of teens after Jerilynn went to school last year. Now Brandon's friends are starting to come over, and some of Jerilynn's friends are returning, too! I came home from work Saturday night at about 10PM to find almost a dozen kids here...Norman had run off to the basement and they were all sitting around the living room, dining room and computer room talking, playing on the computers (several laptops present as well) and with a movie playing in the background. It felt like home!
