The trip there and the trip home are about 45 mines each, except the trip home has a denny' about half way back-And it has wifi. It is that right now I am also doing some service calls as well as the second shift factory work. I might miss posting a day, but 2 days in a row? highly unlikely.

Wizard: progress occurring
the hard thing of choosing spells is paring down to a reasonable cost.
Just in case you were not aware: for spells not gained per level gained, the left over spells have to be bought as scrolls and then writtn in the book. each book has 100 pages and each spell takes 1 page pr level of spell.
for example: a fifth level spell costs 25*9*5 gp=1125 gp, just for 1 spell. then to write it it costs an additional 250 go and 5 pages. so for the simple selection of say .. .. .. ..5 spells you are looking at 6875 and 1/4 of a spell book. that is 1/8 of the spending budget. and only 1 level of spells.
so very frustrating.

Oh, and by the way, the Wizard is just a little mad, touched or otherwise not playing with a full deck.
True, but it's generally considered a fair tradeoff for the flexibility that the wizard has.
You may want to have 2 spellbooks: the first for spell levels 0-3, the 2nd for levels 4 & 5. That way you won't have to worry about running out of pages and it's easy to tell which spell is in which book.
BTW I am considering for flavor reasons allowing wizards to learn witch spells at +1 spell level (and vice versa). Incidentally, one effect of this would be allowing you some minor access to healing spells, for example Cure Light Wounds as a 2nd level spell. Let me know how you feel about this, but don't feel obligated to change your spell selection.
