Red Letter Day - January 9, 2008
Yes sirree folks, yesterday was a red letter day here at the Markham Household....
1. We got to meet up with two new homeschool families and they both have boys in the age range of Jack! Now that is awesome because I am always looking for kids in my kids age range. And one of them knows a homeschooling girl in Katrina's age range. I am keeping my fingers crossed!
2. We went and after an hour of paper signing and final negotiations, I drove away in my Xterra. I don't have any pictures because it was after dark when I got home. I'll try to get some today before the rain begins. We were sad to see them take my car and they only gave us 100.00 for it on the trade in, but their mechanics are pretty sharp. They took it for a spin, came back and said it had major mechanical problems and they were glad I was getting out of it... Tell me somethiing I didn't know. Still it was a great car and we will miss her.
3. And last, but certainly not least...during the evening hours sometime between when I was putting away groceries and doing the days dishes...I had the 10,000th viewer visit my blog!!! COOL BEANS! I am humbled and grateful that so many have popped in to see what I have to say!

Congrats on your new ride and the visitors!
Wow! What do I congratulate you on first...well, I know what a thrill it is to find homeschooling friends just the right age for our children. So, HUGE CONGRATS! on that.
And, YIPEE!! A new vehicle!! I love how clean a "new" car is. We had to get a replacement for the van that was totalled. Although it was used, ohhhh, it looked so good!
100K visitors! That is a huge milestone.
BTW, I agree about the book up top...the style, that is. It's an interesting style that does take getting used to, but it can be fun to read.
that does sound like a good day!
