Today was Thursday.

It was an early release day at the high school. School let out at 12 noon. I took Nick A. and Andrew, my son, to the mall. I came back to the school at 12:30PM and stayed in a teacher development until 3:15 PM. Peter talked to us about the difference between culture and climate in our school.

This morning I gave out a "Big Mouth" award to a student of mine who decided to talk virtually through the whole announcements this morning and who also continued to speak on top of me as I began to address the class.

After school I took Donna out for super at What a Burger.

This evening I uploaded my first video ever to YouTube.com. That was pretty neat.

We also got our insurance check in the mail, endorsed my Citimortgage, to pay for fixing our roof.

My parents are hoping to be given a car from one of their long time friends in business. My mom wants to sell us their Dodge Intrepid which would be a big help to us.

Ashlyn has been studying every day after school to get straight A's in school. She is a studying machine right now. She is also about to turn 11 years old on us.

Today was also my cousin William Davis's birthday. Happy birthday William!!!

Today was a Sunday.

We sang "Holiness" as our last song. Doc said that it matched his message perfectly. He said nothing will empty to pews of a church as fast as a message of repentance.

My Internet has not worked at McDonald's for two days. I called an IT guy at AT&T this evening to get some help. He was not able to rectify the situation.

Erin, from Farmer's Insurance, assessed the damage to our fences and our roof around 12:35 PM. She said they can give us a new roof and replace some of the fence. Our detectable is $1,000.

Andrew played drums at youth group tonight. He had to be there at 5 PM.

Ashlyn went to Lizzy's house after church. The Harmon's got their electricity back late today.

I learned a song tonight on Ashlyn's guitar which had a line in it "the moon is on fire."
