Sounds reasonable to me - I hope they enjoy each others company and get along well!Fall break, but no rest for the wicked (ish): working on lesson plans for next week (new reading program starting), then cleaning for Round 2 of October houseguests. My daughter's friend is coming from Wisconsin to stay with us for a week. He's never been on a plane, never been farther than Milwaukee, never been away from his large family, and has never even seen a mountain, so this will be an experience for him. They 'met' two years ago via FB--his mother and I have been friends for years, and the kids kind of matched through commenting on our FB posts. It will be a strange (and likely tense) week for Mark and I: when this plan was hatched, I didn't have a job and was home all day. Now there will be unsupervised young adults (23 and 20) in the house all day. I'm not clueless--I was married at 23. Neither is a stupid kid, but... yeah.
Is it bad that I've requested that my older son make it very clear that he is home during the day (he works nights) and he loves his sister?
I meant it sounds reasonable to this comment:Oh neesy.

So they have never met in real life (in the flesh, so to speak?)
That is what I mean - until they meet in real life you will not know if there is any kind of attraction
No, they haven't. But they text constantly, talk on the phone often, and Skype at least every other day. Technology can be a wonderful thing
Okay - no biggie - I meant where I put "until they meet in the flesh"No, wot? No.
I had or saw no double meanings. Jesus god.
What thread am I in? Ok..
Week coming up.
Gotta go to see if I have to serve a Grand Jury next week. That's something different.

Should be amazing! Be sure to post some pics if you have time to take any!Well this week is going to be a bit of limbo for me. I got all the projects completed that I could last week. 4 of them got delayed indefinitely. I may have to pick up the reins myself and complete them if I can get time. The ones that did get completed now have to be put through my QA/QC processes. Most of them are automated, but can take some time to run. The good thing is that is when I have time to hang here on the board!
I've got 2 techs out on vacation this week too, so nothing will get done production wise. Oh well, I have lots of small things I've put off in favor of more pressing matters.
On the Halloween Scare House front, I completed all the fake dead bodies this weekend. They all look similar to this:
I also finished the lab sample jars I need to get done. We also finished all the advertising stuff and tested all the smoke machines. I am using the tub portion of my shop vac to create a ground fogger. It has a hose input hole at the top and a drain hole at the bottom. I've rigged the vacuum hose to be inside the tub and attached to the two holes at each end. Then the bucket is filled with ice. I have a hose going from the smoke machine with low lying fog juice into the internal hose, then out through another at the bottom, which goes out to a diffusing attachment at the end to make the fog fan out along the ground. I tested it and it worked great. I do have some leaks to seal, but the test run was a success. We also got some dry ice to run time tests on the bubbling fog experiments in the lab. My son is running all the logistics and production behind the scenes. So far so good! We have 20 latex wounds, a half eaten corpse, trim the large branches we got from a neighbor's tree trimming into a scary tree and a gallon of chunky, semi congealed blood to complete this week. We start the set construction Friday afternoon. We are also staging a wrecked car this year and I have to create a set of props for that.
