I am mostly posting because I know that RefuseToLose (Rob) will be joining this forum soon and I want to be at the head of the list for his round of drinks. Rob, please make mine a Roy Rogers.

Nothing much other than I have had my lawyer send a counter offer to their counter offer. I updated the retirement and stock amounts and I imagine W will freak when she sees how much loss there has been in a month. I actually am having a pretty good chuckle at what the stock market has been doing.

S8 seems just fine when he was with me the last 2 nights. At the cub scout den meeting last night, they were talking about bully's and he told them about the kids at school. He also told me that the teacher (after I emailed her) had a discussion in class about teasing and differences between people. His and I biggest concern now is selling some cub scout christmas wreaths and figuring out how to grow rock cystals.

I am having G40 come over tomorrow for dinner and watch a movie at my home. No funny stuff is planned other than good company and conversation. We will proably do something on Saturday with the kids. I would like to go to the Oregon Coast Aquarium and the beach at Newport, but we have all kind of backup options depending on the weather. None of us have ever visited the Chinese Classical Garden in Portland, and if we did, we could eat Dim Sum which my kids really enjoy.
