Still thinking about writing a novel someday...

Finished our day cleaning offices. We still have 2 left, but will do them tomorrow. Our 18 year old son and is driving with a friend here. His friend REALLY wanted to go to the Basketball tournament. They'll only be here 1 night, but I'm glad that we will see him. I'm reading a book put out by Writers Digest on writing a novel (first draft) in a month. It's really good and I'm learning a lot. Hope to share more about it soon. Have a nice weekend! Sign in to see full entry.

Card game

Posting twice in one day - that's new for me. When Levi was here, he taught us this cool card came called scum. We played it tonight, but after one hand, Greg dropped out, then we all decided to play another time. I'm competitive in games and hate it when my competitor quits. Oh well, another day....

Chillin out time

It's chillin out time until work in about 30 minutes. We are cleaning every night now, but only for about 2 hours. Today I spent most of the day on the computer making out the billings for our clients. I'm glad I brought the bread machine back from Mexico. We've been making bread in it almost every day now. I actually made a gluten-free bread that tasted good. I am really missing the warm weather, and cannot wait until we have it. It could be a few more months... Sign in to see full entry.

Back from Africa

Our 18 year old son just returned from a trip from Africa. He went to Zimbabwe with the team from the discipleship school he's been in. We've been listening to many stories of the villages he went to, the food they eat... About how they bathed in the river with crocodiles, but under the falls it was safe because crocodiles like calm water. He learned about 10 words. I am always trying to learn new words, so I wrote them down as usual. It's been really nice to have him home. He will be leaving... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I plan on writing about past and present life experiences and what I have learned from them. I also want to tell stories of things in my past, some humourus, some serious and some trivial. I have done some traveling and want to describe those places and people accurately, maybe in some cases changing names if I see it could embarrass someone. I will write out of my heart and hopefully give hope to some of my readers. I do not have all the answers, but have lived long enough to know there are many trials in life and obstacles. I want to examine life, it's simplicities and complexities and share my observation and at times opinions with others.
