Sometimes I wonder when our luck is going to turn around for us. Fred found out 2 days ago that IBM is again cutting his pay. There is also talk about layoffs again in September. We are looking at other possibilities for work for him. To make things even more crazy, Fred stopped at the other house this morning on the way home and found that the house had been broken into and most of his tools have been stolen along with our safe. It is pouring rain, thunder is loud and crazy, the trooper said we probably will never see our stuff so to file a claim with our insurance. We need to get the other tools they left out from the house, notify the needed people about all of our documents and paperwork that was taken. Watch for identity theft for the children. So we are not going camping this weekend. Then we had to stop at the auto body shop down the road because our van smells like mildew and we think that the repairs that were done in the fall last year has caused some leakage. Oh yeah I almost forgot, I had to chase bats out of my camper last night!


On a happier note....... Keith is 7 years old today. We have tried to keep his day special. He wants chinese food for dinner and Grandma and Grandpa Grimm are coming over this afternoon. Grandma made Keith's favorite chocolate pie for dessert!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY BIG BOY! i LOVE YOU!!!!!;*
