Soon we will have a new (post-womb) member of the Johnson household.  Looking at Katie sparks the Low Rider song to flit through my brain.  My bet is that the crazy, kung-fu contortionist will be with us by the end of the week.  I’ll also lay money that this one will be 8 lbs plus.  Both mother and child are doing well.  Ron will be with us tonight, baring any more train delays.  He does get a free day in the Windy City in part on Amtrak’s dime and I think he will really enjoy himself.

Lucy is doing well.  She is acting a bit under the weather and that is not good, but at least she takes being sick in stride.  I fully expected that children acted on every impulse with great gusto and Lucy tempers herself with skill that belies her sub-two-year-old life.  She really is a joy to have as a daughter.

School has started up again (finally) and I am looking forward to being back in the swing of things.  That means I have to be very serious about writing.  Discipline has never been my strong suit especially when it’s of the self variety.   The classes we have this semester are Cinematography, Production Design, Screenwriting, Directing, Producing, Post Production and Artistic Vocation.  Where Art Voc was my favorite class last semester I am not looking forward to it this semester.  I’m sure Josh will be a good teacher, but I will forever wonder what might have been.

I’ll keep this blog updated with baby news when there is news to share.  (It’s funny that a blog site flags “blog” as a misspelled word.)

Peace to you.
