Hi Kris
I'll be in your fair city of Lincoln, NE the first week in August. At least I'm fairly sure I'll be there. I plan on making skating nationals. I am also considering going to Calif after that is over to see DL & Alcatraz. Sooooo, maybe I can visit at least one day with you & a day or two with Nan. Also, we are supposed to have a day with Aisling, arn't we? Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy
Jill
Jill--Do you do both roller & ice skating? Isn't roller skating here? THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!

ESPECIALLY since you & I didn't formally meet on the cruise, either!
Grim--you don't look like the "quiet guy" you have been portrayed as.....!
I gotta go check out your site, Grim---maybe I didn't need to bring my camera after all--you all have at least filled in the spaces! I did take the camcorder....only to use it only as we embarked at
Castaway Cay! We did go to the family dance party after the Golden Mickeys in Sea Studio (is that right?). I didn't want to go, but it actually turned out to be QUITE fun. Actually the men were dancing more than the women! There would have been some terrific filming there...of course I thought of it as the party wound down! (Would have liked a little footage of cutie CM Jake

!)
Marcus has a slight fever and barking like a dog

Dan is staying home w/ him.
Well, put in to do a Harris lab study (they do drug testing for FDA). I have done some in past. Generally a decent sum for some time & blood draws. This one would require me to be there 2-3day weekends over the next month---I'm thinking it'll be like a scrapbooking getaway! (Plus I can cover the charges from the cruise w/ that chunk o' change!!!!!

) Hope I get it!
Not much else here. Sure glad I have you all to chat with a few minutes a day--a nice bright spot in the day

(one of many, usually!)
Nan--prayers for Dad & fingers crossed for the house!
Tig--how's it being back to work at the shop?
Aisling--how's self-employment going?
Dede--how's it being back to school? Doing OK here....much better after a stressful first semester! It's all downhill from here! I, too, have considered another occupation...what I have always wanted to do is write travel & restaurant guides. I travel & eat well (paid for by someone...??!!), and write about my experiences! Sounds like a win-win situation!! Hmmmm....wonder who would be willing to cover the upfront $??!! Of course, I'd need a nanny...I supposed it isn't a terrific job when you have 3 young kids!! Oh, well, pipe dream...that and being a vocalist (although GERD seems to have done a number on my esophagus, so can't hit the high notes like I used to!
Alright...I digress...
Ni night
Kris
