Well Matt has been home a week and has cooked dinner, moved rocks, done some shopping and is now preparing for his trip to Italy. Yesterday he was able to check his grades on line. WOW - he got all A's. Needless to say he was very proud; I do not think this has happened since he was in elementary school, and even then I'm not so sure. Dan and I are very proud of him; we were even more happy to see how proud he was of himself.He loved his classes and wants to talk politics and world policy constantly. It is not unusual for me to come home from work to find him either reading some sort of history book or watching CNN. Things have definitely come a long way from his freshman year when he wanted to transfer. He even said to me today that he loved Adrian and is glad he stayed.
Nate finishes up his finals on Tuesday; I guess he will be home sometime that afternoon. He got a phone call from Pepsi today. Apparently one of the applicants who was going to drive in the truck did not pass his drug test. The secretary immediately thought of Nate; he voiced an interest in having the same job Matt has. She called him and offered him the route job instead of the warehouse job. Nate jumped at the opportunity. Now both boys can drive in and home together.
It's a good thing that the boys like each other, since they will be spending a lot of time together. Matt is glad that they have the same schedule so that Nate can spot him when they lift.
