I can’t believe I went a week without posting on here. Frankly, it’s kind of hard to get the time when you belong to a civic organization, have a full time job, two kids, and a home to upkeep.

Needless to say I’ve been busy. I’m stirring things up a little bit on the Register-News forums I think. On there I must say that I’m sounding really negative lately, but that’s all I can come up with from my perspective. There are two major employers around here, and they don’t have very deep roots. For IT jobs, there isn’t much, if anything. That’s where my career lies, if I can find something. Pretty sure I’m going to start offering freelance support for computers. It’s not much, but maybe it’ll supplement my income and help with the bills.

The kids had a great time out at Board Day. They played in the pond, socialized with relatives, and enjoyed the fireworks display. Unfortunately I had to leave after an hour and a half to go to the Jaycees’ M-night. It was fun for everyone who showed. Not very many of us were there, but it was a beautiful summer night, so it was understandable. Still, the few of us who showed had a good time.

I saw David and Diana at Board Day. I miss them. I miss seeing everyone, but they are sooooooo far away, and David and I actually get along and can have intelligent discussions. At least I think he enjoys talking to me. Either way I like talking to him.

Well, I’m off to have spaghetti and “space-out” watching some TV with the family. We don’t get to spend enough time together.
