Everywhere! Hurtigruten run the delivery boats up and down the Norwegian coast. We hope to see the Aurora Borealis, lots of lovely fjords and, just maybe, a Norwegian Blue parrot!

I had two positive long duration interactions with my sometimes crazy Dad this week.

We had a couple staff out yesterday and had to do some assessments so my supervisor came over to cover for me. Two of the kids whose behaviors are barely manageable blew up on her and got us major kudos for how we've been working the problems.

With those two things off my shoulders my epee fencing was truly creative last night, it is amazing how much impact mental state has on the game.

And how negatively impacted your mental state can be without even realizing it, when you've had problems so long you've become use to them. You've made good progress on the job front this year, Griff, good work.

Max is starting to use his potty! Wooohoooo! Hopefully in another week or two there'll be no more daytime nappies! This makes me very happy.

Obviously you were absent that day, HLJ
Natural gas:
Colorless
Odorless
Tasteless

So, while you may be allowed, you can't.
