"It is not MY fault that I never learned to accept responsibility!"

At the moment, nobody in the Beadnell household is sick.  This is quite a feat.  We've been busy doing everyday life type of stuff.  Jaime has been working a little overtime at her work, and although I'm not back up to the hours I once was at mine, we've been getting a little busier which will hopefully continue.
Since it's been staying lighter outside for longer we've been starting to get some things done around the house that we've been putting off through the winter.  We planted 2 new hybrid fruit trees in the front yard.  1 is a 5 species apple tree and the other is a 4 species plum tree.  Hopefully in a few years (before the apocalypse) they'll actually bear some fruit so we'll be a little more self sustaining.  (I'm kidding, sort of....)  I'll finally (hopefully) be finishing the back covered porch that I took down during the re-roof last year and the shop addition.
Jaime has been diligently researching her ancestry once again and updating her genealogy.  She's also starting oil painting and we've got a few of her pieces hanging on our walls already.
McKenna and Lilah are still going to Rosey's daycare and are still loving it.  There have been a few of their friends who have left which is sad, but it is getting them ready for what life is really like I guess.  Friends come and go, move away, graduate, etc.  McKenna is also still really enjoying preschool 2 times a week.  She brings home her own piece of artwork every week and is getting really good at writing her alphabet and a few words.
We hope this finds you well, until next time...
