So, we ordered my sleeper sofa a week or so ago, and I've been sleeping better than ever now. Seriously, it's so comfy with the doubled-over formfitting foam mattress on the spring matress, enveloped in silky sheets and capped with a flannel goosedown comforter. And now I have my own little place to read! An actual place for me to sit in my room! Nothing will replace the decades-old LaZBoy at the wide window as my fav reading spot, though. <3

Also, I installed wood floors in the hallways and my room, so it looks all neat and stuff now.

Mom also bought one of those vibrating platforms for muscle toning. It's fairly... amusing. Makes my legs feel like jello after a while, though.

Dad's doing okay. He's in a foster home in Sutherlin, like 30-ish miles from our little chalet. Still, he has good care there, and it's a lot better than the last place he was at (looooooong and complicated story on that, and it's still going on right now. Dun wanna talk about it here, though). However, what he's been getting was class II foster homes, and he needs class III care facility 24/7 care, like, a mental facility, and we're working on that right now.

We may sue his old caretaker and even the hospital and his doctor for making a bundle of problems and mistakes, too, which makes me excited.

In my BSA news, I applied for being the 3rd assistant scoutmaster in one of the council's National Jamboree troops. It's a rarely-applied for position, as it targets people 18-21, and those guys are usually busy doing college stuff, so I, with my good BSA credentials and history, should have a good chance at being selected.

I'm also prolly gunna be the crew leader for my Philmont crew this year, which is awesome. Many say it's a hard task, but organizing things for others has always been one of my gifts. Plus, I can truthfully say I'm the most experienced outdoors guy in the crew (except for the main adviser, lol), and am also great at camp cooking, so I know how to do a lot of things that we would end up doing at Philmont.

So, um, that's what's up right now. Just a bunch of stuff that will launch me and the rest of my family in full swing in the summer and make it one summer to remember for me.
