Thanks a bunch for the update! So Jordan's breaking down boxes for Target?!?! Like you said, God definitely has a sense of humor!
Double Ditto...................
Then Double Dutch Ditto!!!![]()
can you triple stamp a double dutch ditto.
or will you get tangled in the ropes if you try that.

I thought everyone knew you would get tangled in the ropes if you tried that!!!!Sheesh Dan........
You can quadruple stamp a double dutch ditto, but only if you do it while playing UNO!![]()
I don't normally take pictures of other people (that I don't know), but I couldn't resist this one......

Thanks Yuki for the well wishes. I've been pooped the last 2 nights but thankfully, my parents are helping out. Next week though, I have to watch the kids solo as my parents get their turn to jet set to Kauai while I take vacation time to watch Tom & Jerry with the kids.
Hi all.
Just a quick update on the long lost Jordan... talked to him yesterday...
Overall he's doing well, he says it's hard but it's beneficial thus far so that's good... he was set to start work yesterday (taking apart cardboard boxes and taking them out to the trash area) and I think he's set to work several days a week... here's a little chuckle for you all... he will be working (secondhand) for... drum roll please... TARGET!!!The place he'll be working distributes exclusively for Target... so as he's taking apart the boxes, perhaps those will be ones delivering travel sized items to a Target near you... ha ha ha. He had to have a little laugh at that fact. God has a sense of humor, I tell you.
Here's some news and info from him:
Phone privileges have been adjusted for his dorm - only allowed phone calls for the time being on Fri, Sat, Sun (no later than 8pm PST on Fri/Sat; and 7pm PST on Sun). So as before, he'll mostly be calling out and then having people call back, but just a heads up on the timing of calls going forward.
He'll be working 6am-6pm Fri/Sat so most likely Sunday will be his best phone call days.
Foodie items preferred: Chips are definitely desired (since they're expensive there) and non-perishable, microwaveable items... like those cup a noodles, Campbell's Soup in Hand, stuff that's generally pretty portable to store, cook, eat, nuts, snacks...
On a more serious note, he said that he's really felt God working in him these past days... before he left, during the prayer time from the church, several words were spoken for him, but one key one was God's Hands of Mercy (or something about mercy) and he's really felt that people know about the grace aspect of God but not so much the mercy part (grace being getting something you don't deserve, and mercy being NOT getting something you DO deserve)... and so he's really been dealing with that aspect a lot lately.
Anyway, that's the deal for the moment... oh, and also - postage stamps have been hard to come by so I'll be sending him some and then he can start writing you guys back (he'll also send me a letter - with more details than in a phone conversation) which I can then post to the boards. So it'll be like he's writing to all of you...
But he does appreciate all of you. Thanks so much for your kindness!![]()

Thanks for the update Wendy. Going school supply shopping tomorrow so I will make a Jordy supply box as well.
Glad to hear Jordan is getting settled.
Too funny about the Target.
As for my picture, this is all I have.
