Alone

Well, Kim has gone to coaching convention. I'm sure he's having a great time. I've used this time to get the bedroom redecorated. I think I'm done but I need Jill or Kristy to come in and give me the final "go-over." They've been a great help.....from Jill's "Mom, those doilies have GOT to go!!" Kristy never says something's bad but she has a little look that let's me know it's not a good idea. She's still not quite able to tell me that something is really bad. I'll give her a few more years. HAH!

Sad news....a favorite family friend of Kim's passed away. Pete Schutte was a great man and a wonderful mentor/hero type to Kim as a young man. Pete was a little rough around the edges but would give you the shirt off his back (or the tools off his tool bench). He will be sorely missed by us and I believe the entire community of Quincy, IL. He's probably having a great time partying with Kim's dad in heaven right now.
