RE: no water tonight

Mom, speaking of water problems, I don't think I told you that our water
heater broke last week. I had our handiman Brian fix it on Saturday, and
also get the water softener going while he was at it. He just replaced both
elements in the water heater and cleaned out about two gallons of SILT from
the bottom (from the hard water.) Now it's working awesome and we have lots
of hot water. It's a 64 gallon water heater so we should have had plenty of
hot water all along if it had been working efficiently. It would have cost
about 500 bucks to replace it, so we were happy to pay him for his time and
the cost of the elements. It is fairly new so hopefully it will work for a
long time now.

Kysa and Shay got in a cat fight before bed that ended in Shay biting Kysa's
cheek hard enough to make a noticeable mark, but not hard enough to break
the skin. Don't know what I'm gonna do with those two. The only good thing
about it was that it traumatized Kysa enough that she wanted to brush her
teeth and go straight to bed.

Went and played ball tonight at Skyline with Shalaina, Jessica Carlson,
Gretchen, and a few others. They have been playing at Shelley and Rigby,
but couldn't get gyms there so Gretchen opened up Skyline. Always a good
workout. Ty had to do some organizing of his basketball closet so he
brought the kids over and they ran around for awhile. Funny, they seem to
think it's a privilege to come over to Skyline.
