Not too much new...job prospects looking hopeful, everybody reasonably healthy, school in full swing, I'm playing music here and there. Doing a yoga class, it's quite a workout but feels very good also. Trying to get back into writing more. Reading lots of patents, teaching French again. Weather turning a bit cooler now.

Recording day in preparation for fundraiser event next month. Two originals to record. Should be fun, although I'm bringing some reading material in case my part gets done and there is some time available.

Job scene - slight break in the clouds, which is very encouraging. More on this as it develops.

N home for a day or so (working, convenient to stay here). Had a very nice talk with her last night about school stuff.

CA taking a fairly tough load, and swim season makes it busier - I love the study sessions when she has friends come over and they sit around the table working on chemistry, I get to teach a little but they're pretty good at figuring things out on their own.

R staying at a friend's, P and I up before 6 today - I'm doing study on patent stuff, P playing a computer game. Rainy looking morning. CL wanting to go for a 'fall hike." Nice morning.

Yesterday we found a bat in the house. They are rather elegant creatures, equipped with that wonderful echolocation and gracefully able to dodge a variety of objects. Eventually it flew out an open door.

CA doing late homework after a swim meet.

Job search continues, rather slim pickings but making contacts. Exercising more, it feels very good.

Summer's end. N back to school this weekend, the others getting ready for Tuesday. Latest excitement was the tree blowing onto the house (minor damage). I'm playing violin with this group. Everybody seems reasonably healthy. A bit too busy. But NCR&P all manage to get time with friends. CL also helping friends move this weekend. No rain so far. Take care.
