Update

Things are really getting busy here for Brian. He is writing his first paper for class this week, so he is trying to work extra research and writing hours into his normal homework schedule. Please don't be offended if you don't hear from us a lot in the next couple weeks. There is a lot of research going on, and there isn't a lot of time left over for anything else.

As for me, I have been having some back pain problems. It got so bad this week that I ended up going in to see the doctor today. I have a collection of prescriptions now and I am feeling better.

We have received some much-appreciated letters and packages from family over the last couple weeks. Thank you, everyone. Hearing from you is really encouraging to us both.
