Entry for July 08, 2006

Alex is leavin today. We had a good visit,i think. He did a lot of fun stuff this time. Went to Santa Cruz, and the boardwalk with Claire for a few days, San Francisco via Bart the other day. He went to see his granny's gravesite while he was here, since he didnt get to come home for the funeral. And had hiw wisdom teeht pulled. He healed up well. I will miss him, but he is doing the best for himself. He graduates with his A n P in December, then starts on his Associats then his Bachlor. After that , he plans on the Airforce to finish learning what he wants to learn. I know I already said this, but i just have to brag.

The one downer on this visit, he lost his phone the monday after he got here. He set it down next to the computer on a table, it had died, and then he doesnt remember seeing it again. It is a small room. Couldnt have gone far. I have checked every where. We do have insurance on it, but this will be the second one replaced in two months. When alex looses something, it falls into the black whole of never gonna see it again. You never find the stuff he looses. really. He lost the keys to his luggagae last time he was here. He was at Claires, cus he wanted to stay there with her. Unpacked, and couldnt find his keys. even after Claire moved and looked for the keys then, no luck, they weree gone. John doesnt want to get him another phone just because he keeps loosing his, the last one was stolen, not his fault, but this time it is just too soon. But then again, what do we pay insurance for. We get to replace two phones a year for 50.00.  We'll see, maybe a new phone will pop into his mailbox anyway.

I have to go get ready to go to the airport. it s still early, but I am still in my jamms. Need to do the whole get dressed thing.  See ya later.

OH, and by the way, if anyone can help me out. I wanted to do the Flicker thing with my photos, but every time I try, I get to the second little box that says I will be leaving a secure area, do i really want to go there and I check the yes box, I get kicked completely off he internet and have to log back on. There must be a setting somewhere that has been set for my safety. What do i do to fix this? I dont know how to contact the yahoo guys, cus they dont have a message  box , they took it down, or never had one. they only other way is to add it to a comment at the end of one of their blogs, oh yeah, that will work. not.
