Well, here I go. I had a bout of insecurity over all this personal info out here in the blogosphere... stolen identity type concerns, you know typical worst case scenario thinking that has stunted my adventurous and creative growth thus far.

Anyway, life is good here, Rachel just finished reading me the New Testament, morning and evenings, now we are in the OT. Good stuff.

She and I do this website called freerice.com where we answer math, vocabulary, english, german, french and spanish, art and geography questions and the UN gives rice for everyright question answered to folks that need it. I am not sure how it works but it is helping me at my scrabble game and artist recognition and you can never know too much about geography...blah, blah...

She has been tearing at these math and psychology classes.

A few days ago I/we went on a market walk, my fun-meter was almost on zero for that...BUT I got to ride to and from in a rotor-wing. About 75% of the group, including myself, actively has or is overcoming "bubble-guts" with this neat flu-like accompaniment/
chaser so that made the flights even funner...of course Rachel is right here resenting my creative bend in vocabulary and insists that I can't use funner...I say, "fun, funner, funest" all the time...survey says...?

WWTD?

WE just got 4 !!! care packages, amazing and humbling. Thank you.

I just got a photo from some good friends of their woodshed, it made me so homesick I nearly welled up in tears, nearly. I have sorted many things out right there...you know what I mean? Where you just get into a groove and sort of follow through, think things all out...? Splitting wood and mowing really work for me.

I think that I have the weekend off with Rachel, unless we get a sandstorm tomorrow and then I will need to travel, so I am praying it is clear.

anyway, more soon
