Today was a really good day Mom cooked a big meal and most all the family was there off and on through the day Dad had a good day also he now has an electric wheel chair and we built him a ramp to he can go by himself from upstairs down to where we eat and have all the entertainment he can’t use the steps anymore so he is happy with getting there himself he stayed with us almost all day we ate and just had a really good Easter we watched a couple movies then finally around 4:00 he had enough and motered himself back up to the main house to take a nap the girls and I stuck around and cleaned up and put all the leftovers away I think Mom was also ready for a nap. The weather even agreed it was around 50 degrees all day but now the rain has set in so I have a nice toasty fire going on and am going to relax with a book for a while I am on spring break all next week.
I found a part time job or maybe it might be it found me it is at an inspection/alignment garage right up the road they called me one day they had a School bus in with no brake lights and since I repaired School buses for 23 years they thought I might help them out and fix the problem I did but it developed into more work, so I ended up working 3 hours everyday after School last week they don’t pay much only $11.00 per hour but it helps and once they realized I am off all week I am thinking I will be working a full week I am glad it feels good to be working and making money again even part time it is something I needed. I hope everybody had a great Easter
Enjoy Life,

Long overdue update
It has been way too long since I have updated I have to stop that since this is the only record I am keeping of what is going on in my life, last month Dad was back in the hospital twice the first time was not too bad but the second time was the bad one it was when we had our last major snow storm. He was in for almost a week they had to put a tube in his lungs to drain excess fluid out it worked for the time being but now he is so weak the worse I have seen him I go down almost everyday to visit and help him out of the dialysis van and into the house he seems to really be going downhill fast he can hardly walk it is hard to watch this happen. On the good side if there is any he is quite mentally alert but it is just his body is giving up.
School is going real well I blew off one of the days when it snowed real bad the roads were horrible so I stayed home and here the next day was just as bad but I made it fine, electronics is becoming more and more difficult my last test I got a 93% so many formulas with and now with the transistors and amplifiers we are studying it is almost overwhelming, but I will get it I come home and rewrite my notes so they are easier to understand I have to write them so fast in class that by the time test day comes if I misunderstand something in my notes I miss it on my test so I think this should help on the next one I am half way through electronics and once this semester is over school will be half done
I love March winter is now over it is still cold but you know it will warm up the sun is a lot warmer and almost all the ugly snow is gone I am still burning wood but it won’t be long till that is over and done with which will be fine with me I can’t wait to sit out on the porch and have my morning coffee. I can’t believe I am actually looking forward to mowing my grass I need the sun and warm winter has lasted way too long here.
Enjoy Life,
Tim 😉
