Life is still plodding along.

Hi everybody. It's been awhile since we've put anything on here, which is funny, because our lives are about as exciting as they get right now. As most of you know, we have two girls living with us right now. One of them, whom I'll call Karen (that is not her real name), is nine years-old. The other, whom I'll call Angela, is 16. Both of them are pretty good girls, but it has been pretty dramatic here since Angela arrived almost two weeks ago. Oddly enough, Angela is not the dramatic one. Instead, it has been Karen that has caused most of the distress and stress in the house. We've been somewhat hoping her caseworker will find her a new placement soon, although that is unlikely to happen. We will probably have both of them for the summer, for better or for worse. It has been challenging in many ways. Most recently, it has been challenging to explain that we are all going to live by rules that are in accordance with the Gospel, regardless of who in the house is Mormon and who isn't. We have had some hiccups, mostly from Karen, about that. Anyway, it will all sort itself out. Sometimes it is wonderful. It's nice to have people to take care of, who need me. It has also been very good for my health. In my efforts to feed them healthy food, I have lost ten pounds in the last six weeks. :) Anyway, that is all for now.
