Well hello there. Hope everyone had a Good holiday season and are enjoying a great new year so far. It’s been awhile since I wrote anything here, so I thought I’d go ahead and get some type of entry on today. I don’t have anything exciting to reveal or any interesting stories to share of the last month or so.
I have still been extremely busy. Between "the boys" holiday breaks, illnesses going around the house, Cub Scouts, Chess Club, and the holidays themselves, I can’t seem to catch a break.
Always doing something. Biggest items right now: Cub Scout blue and Gold, Cub Scout Re-Charter, and helping a friend with his candidacy for Colorado House of Representatives (Don’t ask how we got on board with that). Just finished a new web site for our friend (http://markwallerforhd15.org) and now we are working on a "meet the candidate" party to be held at Sky Sox stadium in the first week of march.
Finding a new job has not gone well so far. To be honest I haven’t had much time to look, nor do I really want to. Being a stay at home dad has been great, for the most part. If it weren’t for the crummy pay I’d probably stay home for a lot longer than I am planning. Hopefully, things will start to slow down here in the next couple of weeks and I can jump back into the job search again, shoot, I might even start trying on some of those New Years resolutions I promised myself (and no I wont share).
Hmmmm…. Like I said not much to say here. Tonight, is another "Spirit Night" for "the boys" school at Skate City. I think they have one of these things about every other month. To be honest I am getting a bit tired of all this fund raising stuff. Seems money is constantly going out the door for something or other. I guess I would mind a bit less if I actually knew more about where the money is going. I mean I think we have had about 12 fundraiser’s for the school alone this year. I know the PTO bought some new computers for the teachers, but that is about it. I mean I pay my taxes, school fees, and buy all the items on the big "back to school" list so what more am I buying with all these dinners and Skate City nights? I guess if I saw some type of list once in awhile I’d be happier, but oh well… almost went negative there.
As I type this I am having an IM conversation with my nephew on MSN Messenger… He is in kindergarten and lives in California. He sure likes to IM on the computer, always has… Hopefully, I am still making some sense as I type here. 🙂
I haven’t worked on the main portion of this site in forever. The portal is still not working quite right, but I haven’t lost any sleep over it. After almost a 12 year presence on the web I am starting to lose a little interest in maintaining all these sites. I think this may be the last year for a couple of the sites I do run. I foresee the Schools PTO site going by the wayside after this year(http://srespto.org). After four years running I just don’t think it is used much… Still undecided about the Cub Scout site (http://cspack225.org), might try another year on that one, but I don’t think it’s being used much either. Seems to be a lot of time and money (out of my pocket) being wasted.
Well I think I’ve rambled here a bit too long… so I am going to go for know. It is one of my resolutions to try and update this thing with boring dribble a bit more often… of course that has been a resolution for the last three years… Anyway here’s to success and happiness in 2008!
Your nephew appreciates the mention. About time you made an update.
