Yikes, it is windy here. Gusts maybe up to 30 or 40. And hot and humid. Could get into the 90s, dewpoint around 70. But I'll take it! Better than 50 and rainy.

The dumb car is acting up, the dashboard light indicates a misfiring condition, and the car isn't running right. There's a noticeable decrease in power, for instance when stepping on the gas. At low speeds the car kinda shakes and shutters a bit. So, will probably have to get that to the shop. What a pain older cars are. But at least we have it.

Took the kids to the lake last night. Was a very nice evening for that. They swam in the water for a bit. There were some older boys playing around in the water, and John joined right in, had a ball. He was so delighted. He just loves that kind of interaction with other kids. They weren't playing directly with him so much, but he was having so much just splashing around them. What a sweetie.

The school district gave us the results of their evaluation on him. They said bottom line there isn't anything that would qualify him for any kind of special attention. Yeah, there may be some orphanage related things, but see how he develops here, etc... When he gets into a group setting, we'll see how he does, etc...

The endocrinologist said there wasn't anything obviously wrong. Tests looked ok. He is small for his age, but his recent growth is encouraging. He is close to where he might qualify for growth hormone treatment, but we'll see how he does. We'll go back in six months and the doc will look at him again.

Detroit beat LA last night in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. LA had been off for an entire week, and it showed.

Game 7 of the Stanley Cup is tonight. Might be the last hockey game for some time, with the labor battle and possible lockout looming.
