Dryer and more

Our dryer, a few weeks back, quit drying. It would run through the cycle, but leave everything wet instead of drying it. It sucked!!
This past Sat. 9/12/09, our friend & HT (Kris Dahlquist), came over and fixed it for us. He and Jeff had to go and buy a new heating element, but now it works. YEAH!!
No more trips to dry clothes at the laundry mat, what a pain that was!
I am so excited.


Also, on Sat., Jalani & her soccer team had their first official season soccer game.
They played a team from the Tri-cities. They beat us 3-1. Jalani was keeper for the first half of the game, and was injured during that time.
She came out to get a ball approaching the goal, and the opposing team member barreled into her. She and this girl, and a girl from her team were all in a pile. (If I get pictures from a mom on the team, I will add them). When all was said and done, she was up but holding her right upper arm, and crying. I knew she was hurting if she was crying, cause she doesn't cry unless she is really hurting bad!! :-(
I was thinking she dislocated her shoulder or broke an arm................fortunately, she came out of it with minor injuries. She is still hurting today, and has the start of a lovely bruise, but she will survive!!
Glad for that!!
Jolyn played with their band (golden apple band) for the football game on friday night, she seemed to enjoy that. I hope she continues to enjoy the rest of this year with band. Then if she wants to quit, fine with me!! :-)

Jeff is preparing to start school on the 28th of Sept., this will be his last year. I can't believe it. I thought we would never get this far. It has been hard for him, but he is doing amazingly well. He currently holds a 3.83 GPA overall. I am very proud of him for this, and for sticking with it through all the tough times. He is awesome!! I love you, Jeff!!

I am prepared to sub as much as possible this year, to help with financing Jolyn's braces, among other things.
I have had one job already, and another this week.
Well, that is us in a current nutshell!! till next time!
