Period of boredom.
Right know there is absolutly nothing to do because my brother Malachi is in Montana and we will not see him until May when we go out for the summer. we all miss him a lot and are really looking forward to the summer.

Micah,
Boredom is an attitude problem, not a situation problem. I would suggest that you find something to occupy your time constructively before your parents find it for you!
A couple of examples follow:
A> Is your room clean?
B> Is your sister's room clean?
C> Is your house clean?
D> Does your parents vehicleneed to be cleaned?
E> Does your dog need to be cleaned?
F> Does your yard need to be cleaned?
G> Do you have a neighbor that has a yard that needs to be cleaned?
H> Is there a public area nearby that needs to be cleaned?
I> Is there a need in your community that could be best addressed through annonymity?
K> Do you know someone that could be encouraged through a kind word?
L> Do you know someone that could be encouraged through a kind letter written with no problems in spelling, grammar, or syntax?
M> Do you know an uncle living in Southwest Montana that could be blessed with a dozen size 10, 14, and 16 Bead Headed Prince Nymphs, and another couple dozen assorted Mayfly, Caddis, and Stonefly Nymphs (I am sure that the aforementioned Uncle could provide a more complete list if he was asked...)? :)
Needless to say, Micah, God blesses us with spare time to focus on serving the needs of others. In doing so, we serve God.
To paraphrase a dead president, "Ask not what God can do for you, ask what you can do for God."
In doing so, God will do more for you than you could ever imagine.
Love,
Uncle Jake
P.S.- This E-mail does not imply in any way that I never get bored, or am not selfish, greedy, or needy, or that I am ever so Godly that I should be ever so eager to give out Spiritual advise to relatives over the Internet, or that I hvae mastered spelling, grammar, and syntax. Reference point M>, or your Aunt Jennifer. On second thought, let's not ask Aunt Jennifer to point out my shortcomings (she knows them all to well......). ;)
P.P.S.- I will also leave it to your father to explain how to balance the above e-mail with humanity's desire for legalism.
I sure dont know an uncle who needs all those fishing flies but I could probably do the rest of those things.
signed,
Micah
Hey uncle Jake,I think I know an uncle that lives in southwest Montana that will be very dissapointed cause he didn't get all those flies he asked for(you should ask Malachi to tie all those flies for you I'm sure he would be happy to).Say is Samuel cute? Well I have to go I love you and miss you love Rebekah
