Alex is now busy in the 10th grade in honors classes with a spot on the merit roll. He is in the band and in his second year of Marine ROTC. I have been having multiple medical problems but I am working on them. I have no job right now but I am working on my bachelors degree which is going well. We lost our home and so Christmas looks bleak. I have to go catch a bus right now so I will add to this on another day.
