Arizona cancels school for remainder of school year.

This sucks, especially for the Seniors. I have two Juniors at home and they are going nuts, Facetime just isn't cutting it for them.

Now, they are really going to get depressed.

So, I will keep them busy as hell!

We will finally finish our garden expansion, we have lots of seedlings ready to go. We are going to paint the house, inside and out, build a Gazebo, re-plumb the drip systems...and read a lot.

I am going to run the kids through a "life skills" class, which of course drew a lot of sigh's from the kiddos, but will probably be more valuable then anything else. How credit works, how to get a mortgage, buy a car, balance a checking account, get an apartment, setup a household budget, refresh their survival skills, shooting skills, etc...

Most of all, I will cherish this time and I see it as a blessing...that I am home and not on business travel, that we can spend a bunch of time together and I will strive to make it as fun as i can for the most important things in the world.
