School

As our small group knows, we've been really worried this week about getting into the final course we need to graduate with our MBA's in December. Well, I got a call this afternoon and they squeezed both Dan and I into an online course in the same section! What an answer to prayer. There was availability at a St. Louis Park campus, but with my travel schedule I would have had to miss a few weeks of class and in an 8 week course that is not good. We've heard this class takes between 30-40 hours of your time each week so needless to say its going to be a busy fall. But, in January we're going to be very excited to take some much needed time off after this hectic school and cabin-building pace. I don't think we'll be going back for our Doctorate degree anytime soon.

The cabin is going ok. Our builder fell last week and landed on his cell phone so we couldn't get a hold of him for a few days. He felt worse on Friday and ended up being in the hospital for a few days with a deep hip bone bruise and bruised kidneys. He's back now but that did put us behind. Last weekend Dan and I brought out 5 hay bales to lay on the yard since we won't be planting grass seed until the spring. The county doesn't want too much run off in the winter. This weekend we'll be doing more painting, but we won't be taking off time next week to be out there. Its a combination of my travel schedule for work and also wanting to utilize our weekends more instead of taking off vacation days. So, if anyone has a Saturday or Sunday and wants to come out to the lake and help there is lots of painting, staining of trim boards, putting together IKEA cabinets to do :)
