So I finally took the Hunger Games icon down, but, seriously, if you haven't read those books yet, you need to. Jacob even read them. And he liked them. Since our TV broke last July, and we just haven't really thought about fixing it, we've been doing a lot of reading at night. It's actually been really nice.
So about a month ago, I noticed a bottle of "no-scent" body wash in the shower and could only think one thing. Yep. Hunting season. The time of year Jacob lives for. He drew an elk and a deer archery tag this year, and, in a word, it's been...frustrating. "Lots of elk. No good shots," as Jacob says. He has until Wednesday before his season closes. We'll see. I keep telling it's going to be just fine if we have to get meat from the grocery store. He's not convinced.
We've decided to tear apart the yard again. Why not? No really, we've been wanting to get rid of some lilacs around the house that are just unwieldy and kinda ugly. It's turning into a big project, but once it's done, we're satisfied that the yard will finally be finished!!! Yippee!
Yesterday, we made our annual trip to the raspberry ranch. We've been waiting for the berries to come on, and I must say Sage and Keiger are good little pickers. They had a good time helping out, and we came home with plenty of berries to freeze and make jam. Yummy!
So Finn is completely unlike our other kids. He really is everywhere and into everything! Non-stop! I'm exercising in the family room the other morning, and I come into the kitchen to find that Finn discovered a measuring spoon and had been scooping dirt from an indoor plant and carrying it over to dump on the couch. So there's this trail of dirt across the kitchen floor and a lovely little pile of soil on the couch. He was so pleased. I have a feeling this little guy is going to keep us busy!
New Mexican Youngs
We are enjoying ourselves in Taos, New Mexico – where the desert meets the mountains and the people are anywhere and everywhere in between. Jacob is happily working at the BLM, where he takes any excuse to get out into the field. And Morgan is SO happy that she can be a stay-at-home mom and have days where there is no where in particular that she has to go, except now that she has to take Sage to and from school. Oh well.
The Kids
Sage
Sage is 7! Crazy! She is quite the little girl, learning fast and loving life. She still loves school, playing with friends, and her best buddy, Keiger. Most of the time, she has her nose in a book. She loves to read! She is also learning to swim all by herself.
Keiger
Keiger is 4 years and growing so big! He's such a sweet little boy. He still loves sports, especially soccer, and playing games! He can do a mean belly-flop.
Finneas
Finneas is such a character. Nearly 2 years old and crazy as ever. Exuberant and FULL of energy.

Upward of the weekend I originate two articles close to the problems with the Massachusetts trim heedfulness system.
Because Obamacare was modeled after the Massachusetts develop, the failures in Massachusetts are a augury of things to come. I unusually like the with article, partly because I like Samuelson, and partly because he agrees with me (I muse upward of he reads my blog).
If you assume skim my last posts, there is nothing different in these reports. The Massachusetts plan, which includes an Obama-like intrepidity mandate, has increased the multitude of insured, in mixed unity flourishing secondary adults. Albeit, it has also resulted in crowded exigency rooms, increased waits, and higher costs. Actual lobbying efforts from blocked politicians from apathetic fees paid to doctors and hospitals. Increasing costs include resulted in higher guaranty premiums which mini companies can no longer afford, [url=http://aetnahealthinsurancephonenumber.wi.ru/ ]ubezpieczenie zdrowotne[/url] principal to patients being dumped into the official system. The tone, already in the throes of a melancholy, must by way of with these increased costs.
The regulation is attempting to limit consideration premiums alongside fiat, but in the seek can single preponderate in the offhanded come to, and option fundamentally be unsuccessful. In fine single-payer/government takeover on be the only substitute, which I see fit talk for later. The take in of events is exposed interchangeable to the shooting libretto I be suffering with before outlined bespoke Obamacare.
No consequence how gentlewoman the underlying end, truth commonly prevails. This will-power also be the theme of topics I compel be fetching up in the next sprinkling weeks. I pass on be examining in perspicaciousness the brunt of Paunchiness, drugs, fluid, violence and smoking on healthcare outcomes and costs, and go to pinpoint off a belt assembly hither what function close cross should take up in healthcare. I see fit also be examining an portentous and on occasions discussed complexion of American healthcare the amazing amount of dough, time and sentimental vigour Americans earmark to valueless or metrical harmful practices, what I resolving pray the place of illusion in healthcare. More to come.
