Update

Cayse is doing well. She’s been getting massage therapy to help with scar tissue in her neck but otherwise is healthy. Her job is going well and she is enjoying her new position.

Andrew is also doing well. He has started trying to go to the gym so people aren’t so confused why Cayse is with him, which is causing him much soreness. He’s been learning to work with the mainframe systems at WSU which is teaching him to appreciate modern programming languages and methods.

Spot managed to lose his electric fence collar and is now staying out late chasing wild animals and retrieving nasty things that Andrew regularly has to take away and throw in the trash. He is becoming a little too much of a farm dog.

Jorgia has grown up to be a beautiful girl and follows Spot around watching him do stupid things, occasionally joining in. She recently came home with porcupine quills all over her body (her thick fur protected her and we were able to remove them without any trouble). She is a spaz in the snow and enjoys rolling around in it while spot is standing nearby shivering.

The house is coming around nicely. The seller’s agreed to our repair/modification requests and have hired contractors to do the work. We are confident that once the minor issues are fixed we shouldn’t have any trouble getting financing. In case anybody is interested here is a link to the floor plan we drew up for it. It’s probably not exact on sizing but it isn’t too far off and the layout is correct.
