The What Are You Up To This Summer Thread!

[February]

Hi everybody!

I have missed you so!

March and I have been moving and dealing with teenager related turmoil...how have you all been? Any big plans this summer?

I wish I had a Disney trip on my schedule. Been almost two years since I've been back now, and I am so homesick :/

love you all

Won an AP preview of Cars Land, went, it was awesome. Going back sometime this summer. And work, lots of work. I really need to fill that open position soon.

Well, first thing I did today was to fire my boss.

I may have mentioned that I've been the director of a non-profit historical society for the past five years. Last night, laying awake at far to late an hour, I decided that I'd had enough. Sent an email to the Board that I would be gone in 30 days.

Now I get to pack up all their stuff -- it took six trucks to bring it here -- and make sure none of my stuff gets mixed in. Looks like about two to three tons of small boxes, eight filing cabinets, and two big printers. Might be a challenge moving these last.

But after that, I'll have an extra 20 hours/week!

Now I just gotta figure out what I'm going to do with it. :D:

I'm in the midst of the first week of teaching junior sailing. Monday was a total blow out. Winds steady at 30 knots.

Tuesday and Wednesday were better. Wind built over both days to about 10 but so did the surge coming over the reef.

Today was excellent. Winds at about 8 knots and a few rollers over the reef. Hopefully, Friday is the same.

I late August I head to Ohio for an air show and an inside tour of the Air Force museum a Wright-Patterson. I'm set up to get inside of a B-1, B-52, SR-71, and, if another plane can be moved, the XB-70.

On the way back I'm stopping in LA to go out to Catalina Island with some friends for a few days and then DLR.

Hey Bru. Glad to see you on again. I've been thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. Sorry about the teenager drama. Has your daughter moved back? I know that was such and awful thing for you.

We're doing the typical summer thing. Son doing various camps, church conferences, and a mission trip next week. Daughter still trying to find a job, but I don't think it's going to happen. But the best of all is we're doing our big Disney cruise on the Fantasy to the Easter Caribbean to celebrate son's 16th birthday and our 25th wedding anniversary (was actually back in Dec. be we're celebrating now). I'm so excited about the cruise. I've been saving for it for like 2 years.

I've had so many friends go home for the summer in an attempt to find jobs, only for them to realize all the jobs are in midtown.

For me it's work, yard work, volunteering at historic sites, and some day trips here and there. Throw in some time in the pool and great cookouts from time to time and it should be a good summer.

Work, singing, spending time with family. My oldest son will be graduating high school next year, so we're enjoying the time we have left before the nest starts to empty...

As for the singing, if anyone is within driving distance, the VM has a free show next Friday in Colleyville, between Dallas and Fort Worth. It's outdoors, so there will be sweating involved both onstage and off, but at least it's at night.
