I've kind of taken the day off so I thought I might accomplish at least a short journal entry before I go to bed.
It's been a pretty good week in the Thompson house. We got the flooring done and it looks pretty nice. I don't like laying on it though so I was glad to hear the boss talking about getting some area rugs, maybe tomorrow in The Dalles (I hope). The kid (Russell) has been doing "daily doubles: (twice a day football practices) this past week so he spends most of the time sleeping when he's home. Next week school starts so I guess they will only be practicing for a couple hours after school everyday. I think I heard him say their first game is in two weeks, which sounds to me like a long time off. I know he's looking forward to getting the evaluation of his baseball workout from last week. So are my guy and the Boss.
My guy has started back to his school bus driving job this past week, driving the Condon girl volleyball players to Fossil for vb practice. I guess he starts his regular school bus route to Lonerock (52 miles round trip) next Monday. This year he has 5 kids to pick up, an increase of one over last year.
I have to leave for a few minutes now, my guy wants to watch some speech that Barack Obama is giving on TV. He and the boss are political junkies so (they're liberals) I get to hear a lot about politics and sometimes just watch them cuss at the TV whnever some commentator spouts off some rightwing conservative crap, which according to them happens a lot. I'll try to get back to this tonight.
See ya!
Well, it's now the following Sunday, the 31st, so instead of writing more on this post, I'm going to start a new one. Hope that doesn't confuse all you dog-lovers too much.
Keep the peace, pet your dog and keep your cat in the garage.
Binker the Thompson dog.
