Joe left to get back to work early this morning and Holly and Landen had to go in early also.  Holly had hoped to get out early but her assistant called in saying she could not come in so Holly got stuck with a  full day at work after a late night last night the poor girl works all the time.  Landen goes in with her and helps her a lot.  Joe got into work about 10, the driving was good but it does take about 3 hours to get there.   Luke slept in this morning so I had a chance to do all my paper and computer work.  I found a way to keep track of my budget and credit cards and I think that will take some of the worry from my.  I really miss Norman with that.  He was always there to keep me from going over budget and with him watching it I didn’t have to worry now I seem to worry about it all the time and really should not as I have more than enough money to do what ever I want to but I guess old habits are hard to brake.

When Luke got done breakfast we picked up around a bit and got dinner ready then we got busy working on some school work.  He read from the story book we are working on, we did some math and spelling and grammar  and then talked about the world affairs a bit.  He is very aware of what is going on in the world and had many  questions about why things are happening as they are.  I had to be careful and keep my own personal ideas out of it and give him both sides of the problem.  Thanks to Kathy and Shirley I think I could give him a fair evaluation of the two sides so he can judge for himself why things are the way they are.  It is not all black and white there are really two sides and neither is all right or all wrong.   Then we talked about his history and how we could make a time line with all the states he has live in.  Then he needed a break and I had a call to make and before we knew it we were late getting supper ready and Holly and Landen would be home before we were ready.

By 6 p.m. we were ready for supper.  Holly and Landen were home and the cheese burgers were done so we all enjoyed a nice supper.  The cauliflower came out good.  I used the idea that Shanti gave me on broccoli and everyone loved the cauliflower and cheese.

Now another day is ending and I am looking forward to tomorrow.  Luke and I will make some cookies and as soon as my big mixer arrives we will make some bread and rolls.  Tuesday night Joe comes back and I hope to have some cooking done for him.  Laura arrived tonight after supper and there was some left overs for her too.  I don’t know how long she can stay but I hope long enough to get some cookies at least to take back with her.

Have  a great day  and Good night.
