News for April in California and Montana

Well, since I am being told I need to update what is going on with the family here goes. Yesterday Tira and Kathie drove Mitchel to Missoula to have his tonsils removed. They are driving back this morning. I have been working 10 to 12 hours a day on my new job and I think I am tired. I say that because I am to tired to think when I get home. Sunday it hit 100 degrees, it is only spring time. Koko said to say hello to everyone and tell them to send ice to lay on. Koko loves the cold not the heat. I have been running the air conditioning everyday since I arrived in California. I now have an 8O GB Video IPOD and some day I will figure out how to turn it on. It is boring being alone even though I have Koko with me. That is what will probably determine how long I actually work. I can not keep up the pace of working this many hours and then taking care of the dog, myself , the house and cooking. By the time i eat dinner I go to bed and in the morning I barley have enough time to make my lunch before i am out the door. with the commute time my work days are averaging 14-15 hours

Kathie is flying to California on the 19th for a week to spend time with her brother and his wife and to visit her dad because he just turned 80. Belated birthday visit. I really miss my times drinking coffee with Ralph and my friends in Whitehall.

That is all I can think of for now. Papa is signing off

Dad, sorry you are so tired and sorry I couldn't call back last night. I was going crazy with a report/project that I had do before my final at 7 feakn' am this morning.

Do you get to visit Kathie when she comes down?

Can you cut back your hours? Is overtime mandatory?

luv ya
