Many of you are wondering about Ailsa's writing. Things are kinda on hold for now. She is still writing. But, school eats up a lot of time. Probably needs to focus on one story at a time. That has never been her style. Her latest "Andwyrden" that I was helping her edit, she wants to majorly rework. This after the first three books were in finished form and the fourth was nearly there. I think she feels a little bummed that Stephanie Meyer has stepped into the vampire romance arena before she could have a crack at it.
Jensen is trying to do everything and mostly succeeding. She is the one who brings the most sunshine and the least amount of strife into the household. She and Ailsa get along swimmingly, which we love. But, often Laney feels left out.
I haven't been cycling nearly as much the last couple of weeks. The weather is much colder and it is too dark in the morning to drag myself out of bed. I will occasionally get a ride in during the evening of a weekday and sometimes on Saturdays. But, the last 4 or 5 weekends have been gloomy while the weeks have generally been great. Figures.
I recently changed the first counselor in my Bishopric and the new guy is helping to inject a little but of new vigor into our efforts. I didn't initiate the change. But, now it seems like it was probably a good thing.
Laney is following in her sister's footsteps and is very conscientious about completing all of her school work and not getting into trouble at school. She is growing her hair out so she can donate it to locks of love. It is almost long enough without having to give her a crew cut when she is shorn. I think I'll do the same thing. Do you think the Stake President will mind?
We had the Bishopric over for dinner a couple of weeks ago and Lenore fixed a very yummy meal. Roasted pork and creamed corn and roasted potatoes. She has been reading a lot lately about the Mountain Meadows massacre and the Polygamists. If there is ever any controversy she wants to read about it.
We went as a family to see Transformers last Saturday and enjoyed it a lot. We are all pretty big Shia LeBeouf fans. Did anyone else notice the fairly marked Religious/Conservative memes in this film?
We are all looking forward to Thanksgiving together and enjoying The Hoke's river house. Thanks Kim and Ed!
