Seeing Josh off and more...
Freda, Jeremy and I went to Chicago on Saturday. We maneuvered our way through crazy city traffic along the Lake Shore until we reached the Museum of Science and Technology. We spent a good three hours there before heading over to O’Hare airport. Josh and his friend Katie were on their way to Europe and had a three and a half hour layover. They met us outside the terminal where we hung out for an hour and a half before they had to jaunt. It was great. Who knows when we’ll see him again. They arrived safely in London. Josh MySpaced us and said he was having a great time. He checked out three pubs already and is enjoying the local brew. They’re off to see the sights and then they’ll be backpacking and camping in Scotland. They’ll be hitting France, Austria, Switzerland, Germany and more. Lucky beggars.
I finally started a new brew yesterday. It’s a porter. And wouldn’t you know it, the weather was stinking hot and muggy the last couple of days. I had trouble keeping the temperature in the house down enough for the beer. I’m still fighting it even with the air on. I hope it’ll be okay. Don’t want any of those fusel alcohols in it. Nasty stuff.
I did great in my quarter. So far it looks like I will get all A’s – maybe one B in Philosophy for Understanding Theology. I start Hebrew this week and am looking forward to getting into a new language. Okay, I’m weird that way. I have always liked languages and done well in them. Ask me in a few weeks. LOL.
It’s looking like Jeremy is heading to Ontario for the summer to work. He will be living with his cousins and working in a greenhouse. I still don’t know how to feel about that yet. I get a little emotional at times because Jeremy and I are soooo close. We are always laughing and joking together not to mention the deep talks about life, religion and things spiritual. He’s such a great and deep kid. He’s not going until the end of June so we’ll make the best of it until then.
Gotta go. We’re going to do a four mile walk around Reeds Lake not far from here.
‘til next time.
