Finished with my Class

Well, I got a B. I am happy with that. I took Test #5 on Thursday and because I scored high enough to get a B but can't possibly earn enough points on the final to get an A, I am done. The final is optional to improve a prior exam score and all my scores are decent. Where I didn't do so hot is in lab and that has always been a weak area for me so I am happy I got a B.
Joe and Barclay took me out to celebrate Thursday night for a wonderful dinner at Red Lobster. Barclay's realtor gave her a $75 gift card there and so we spent that. :) It was really nice especially without the kids! Of course, when we came home we learned Mason had drawn on the wall and sofa with crayon (no, it does not come out).
Joe left yesterday for the long drive to CA to pick up our 5th wheel and go to his race in Laguna Seca. They are all going to camp in it for the week saving his boss hotel fees and of course it is a lot more fun to camp! Joe will visit with his dad in Marin before driving back up here late next week. Fred is doing better than he was last week but the treatments for his throat cancer have taken a toll on him and he is quite weak. He was sweet enough to call me for Mother's Day yesterday and the boys were very excited to talk with "Grandma Fred". :)
The remodel of Barclay's house is going at a snails pace and we have already encountered water damage in the downstairs bathroom so that has now been prioritized so that she can have a functional bathroom. So far she has taken all her showers here at our house. It is so nice that she is only .4 miles away. It is awfully convenient. I love it. I think it is awesome and better than I had imagined having her nearby. Last night we watched the movie "Awake" together which was a nice treat. We tried to watch "American Gangster" but it got to be too late. It was a bit slow too so I am not that engaged by it.
Today Barclay is going to join me for the Mother's Day party at Mason's preschool. We are both very excited to see what that is all about. My camera is charged up and ready to go!
