Well today turned out a little crazy.  Jeff is working for my boss picking up some stuff he bought with his dad.  One of phones was cut off recently so Jeff couldn't get a hold of me.  Lauren registered late but also when she registered she didn't notice that one of the classes was at a High School in Hayden (pretty far from here).  I told her she needed to drop that class and get another one, so today we stopped by the college to talk to someone and she said the add/drop period had past so we needed to go talk to the Dean of the College to get permission to change it.  I went upstars with Lauren and we discussed the issues and she said she would try to get her another English class and to call her later today to see if it worked out.  I then had Lauren drop me off at work and she drove away, I asked her to remember to pick up the kids this afternoon after school. Well Pete, or my boss Dr. Dube said he was trying to reach me because he didn't need me to work this morning and he wanted me to help Jeff and his dad load the supplies in the truck but our phone was not on so I misssed the call.  I walked down to the Hanceville Public Library near the Dentist Office and got on Facebook to try to reach my daughter, but I think she said she wanted to go back home and go to bed, so I don't think I will be getting a hold of her.  I left her a message anyway.  Kind of a crazy morning! I'm kind of stranded here at the Library until about 2 p.m. until I need to work again.  He said he could use me at 2 p.m. Lauren has missed her first week at college because she registered late and tonight she has her Biology class at 5 p.m. so I'm  not really sure how everything is going to work this afternoon about rides and stuff.  One of our cars has been in the shop for over a month now because the first mechanic couldn't figure it out, so we ended up taking it to another shop and the computer needs to be worked on I guess.  It may be a little while before we get to use that car again.  The other crazy thing is that our kids are going to two different schools.  Trey wanted to go to the Cullman Middle School and Heather is going to Good Hope High School.  It's crazy getting everyone to seminary and to school on time.  Lauren was teased badly at Good Hope and Trey tried it there but said he hated it.  It would be so much easier to ride the school bus and get to the nearest school.  Cullman Middle School does have a better school system and more money.  Each of the kids have their very own laptop to carry around school and to bring home.  He is happier and has lots of friends at the school.  It also cost money for an out of district fee.  Alabama is starting the school voucher program so Heather is thinking about going to a private school in Cullman.  A very expensive private school that she can go to for free I guess with a school voucher.  I'm not sure on all the details and if she is able to do this or not yet. Heather is a good student and enjoys school and is more outgoing than Lauren and Trey and she is going to run cross-country and track again this year!
