My hair...and stuff

I was told I need to update so here it is...

First...I chopped my hair off. While I did not fully intend to lose 12 inches, I do like it. You?




Oh yeah...it's blonde too. :)

Second...August 24th I'll be changing to 3rd shift at CompX. I'm doing this so I can continue to work while I'm going to school. All of my classes are at night except one so I think this will be better than going to 1st shift. I am fully aware that this is going to be hard but I'm going to do it until I'm no longer able. However long that may be...

Third...and probably most important. My Grandma Kruger has Aggressive Onset Alzheimer's. She is getting bad fast. My mom is out there (South Dakota) for 3 weeks to try and get a grasp on the whole situation. It's really hard on her...she might not admit it but I've known her long enough to be able to hear it in her voice. My grama doesn't always know who my mom is, she asks my grampa 'is that lady still here?' I can't imagine what that must be like for my mom or my grama for that matter. My grampa gives my grama more credit than she deserves in regards to all of this...I'm hoping it's just denial and that it'll pass. She and the whole family need some serious prayer coverage. It only gets worse from here.

Forth...on a lighter note. Remember our chickens? Yeah...well, when we got them we were hoping to have a total of 2 hens and 1 rooster of each breed. As they continued to grow we were having trouble telling the gender of each bird...all of the Chochins seemed to look the same besides the coloring. Well, as it turns out we appear to have 5 roosters and a single hen. We're totally bummed. I'm sure you can imagine...ha.

I guess that's enough for now.
