May 2026

May was a relatively quiet month. Sophia finished up her spring semester mid-May and then just over two weeks later we moved her stuff into a temporary dorm room which she will spend her weeknights in while she is working on an 8-week Faculty/Student research project. Last summer she did this for 6 weeks with her Computer Science professor. This summer it is 8 weeks with her Math professor.

Sophia also started making sour dough bread. One of Steve's friends gave her the starter. She has watched videos and is into making delicious breads. She would like to continue making this at school in the fall and perhaps expanding beyond just bread with her sour dough starter. 



First weekend in May is the Sheep and Wool festival. The weather was beautiful, no rain this year. It was even cool enough to wear sweaters. This is one of my favorite weekends of the year!

  

Our pets are all doing good. Loki has a bit of a GI issue but that has cleared up. Otto had an hour plus long adventure outside when he snuck out as Sophia was bringing stuff back from school. It took us 45 minutes of scouring the neighborhood, with the help of a neighbor, before we found him. Our neighbor spotted him and then we were able to grab him and bring him back home. It was dinner time with people coming home from work. I was so worried he would be hit by a car. He got pretty far into the neighborhood but was in a wooded area.

I love it that all our pets get along with each other, they truly like each other!
