Things That Happened Around My House

Well, Bill did survive the b(oring)oard meeting!  But when he went out to get in his car to come home, he discovered tht the driver's side window was nowhere to be seen.  There was no broken glass, so he didn't think he'd been broken into and nothing seemed to be missing from the car.  The window apparently popped out of it's frame and slid right down into the door itself.  It was still light when he got home, but it was getting dark.  He took the door apart, basically, and there was the glass right where he thought.  The plan was to slide it back up and pop it in place, but it didn't want to slide very far before getting stuck.  He thinks the motor that controls the window up/down went bad.  He was eventually able to get the window glass out and up, but then he had to cut a couple of blocks of wood to insert inside the door to hold it in place.  Then he put the door back together, locked the car and called it a night.  He talked to our neighbor who is a mechanic this afternoon, and he told Bill what parts he needs to order and gave him a couple of recommendations on where to order it from.  The part is on the way and should be here in a couple of days.  Bill's probably going to spend Sunday afternoon working on it, until then he just can't roll the window down.

Froggy, Otter is still going to stick with the English degree in all probability.  She is still thinking about her future plans.  But, at least for this semester, she's attending college.  None of her decisions have been rash, she's put a lot of thought and prayer into all of them.  But these are decisions she'll have to make for herself, our role is to guide her and help her as needed.

I will be so glad when next week rolls around and Friday gets here, I really want to get Frasier's spot taken care of.  I think it might have bled slightly again, not a lot and probably because he scraped it but it still needs to come off.

Actually, I'll be glad when it's this Friday too!
