Checking in

Things are good at the Green household. Cathy's in-laws had a couple of extra tickets to the Alabama game last week so Clay and Andy got to go and they really enjoyed that. Butch and I got to keep Abbie and Andie and I think we enjoyed that more. Laura and Josh are still apartment hunting in the Pleasant Grove, Utah area and as of this moment he's scheduled to start work there on November 1st (but that date has changed a few times already so we're not holding our breath). Jamie is in Connecticut until the end of next week going to Subway school. He said it's harder than he expected and the weather is much colder than what he's used to. But he's learning a lot and he's halfway through - so that's good. Grace got a great job at Bradley, Arant... (some law firm) in downtown Birmingham. She likes it and still has plenty of time left over for a social life. Tommy has been in Ethiopia for a week and on Monday sounded good when we emailed. Emily takes the ACT today - so we're all hopeful about that. Andy has been working out with a friend at a fitness club for the past week - so he's sore but proud. Clay had two friends over yesterday to play X-Box, then we took them to see a dance performance at the Rave prior to the opening of High School Musical 3 (which he will go to today). Then to the McAdory Homecoming game. When I got home I was met with the news that our sewer pipes were backed up. It's happened twice before - roots growing into the pipes - and we just have to rent one of those electric snakes. So Butch has his Saturday morning planned for him. I'm just thankful it happened when it did so we can take care of it quickly.

Well, that's more than you ever wanted to know about us!!! Betsy

Reading your blog is as entertaining as a 3-ring circus! What will Josh be doing in Pleasant Grove? Keep ''em coming.

Josh has a friend from Rexburg who went into business with his brother. They own a company called Dish One that installs satelites and they have a pest control business as a sideline. Josh will be working in the office supervising installers and doing some installing himself just to boost his income - at least that's how I understand it. Laura might want to correct me. They have found an apartment and are moving this weekend. Which is perfect timing since Covenant told me this week that they are flying me out for the Thanksgiving weekend to do book signings! Betsy
