Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life
My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.

Jared and I were in Raley's in Incline Village on Saturday, our last day in the Tahoe area. We were picking up some sandwiches to eat on the way home. Jared had been interested in the number dispenser that had been empty the whole time we had been there and was playing with it. I asked him to stop and he did. He stood there instead and sounded out the first word on the sign above the dispenser:
"Puh - Luh - Eee - Sss"
"Please!"
Entirely on his own, he read the word please -- not a simple word. He has been reading his CVC words for quite a while -- slowly, sounding out each letter and blending them, but reading them nonetheless -- and even some CVCC and CCVC words, but this was impressive even for him.

Hi. I'm Roger. What do I do here?
Man o man... you don't know how much I was hoping for four to six feet of new snow on Friday night or Saturday morning. Not enough to trap us in the house, but enough to trap us in Tahoe.
Despite a few issues, we had a wonderful time. Jared and Sara, despite the strep throat thing, got to do a fair bit of sledding. Mostly, they had a blast with their grandparents and got to see a world different from the one they are used to. Me, I'm already looking forward to next year.
