so, i see i haven't blogged in awhile, so i am starting, and hoping that something will come to me as i type.

My foot is doing well post-surgically. i see the dr for my 4 week checkup on friday. unless i spend humongous times on my feet, no probs. i have even driven with it.

I believe that I have my NANO theme ready to go. It involves something dear to my heart, though i will have to fictionalize it somewhat. This, for those who don't know is trying to write a novel in one month, november, i forget how many words. ryan knows all about it. i wasn't sure if i could do it, as i didn't have a theme that stuck. i would love to do a murder mystery, action thriller without sex, but i really don't know much about police procedure, fbi, seals, cia, etc., so i would only be going from all the gazillion books with this theme that i have read.

Dawn and I are going to check out a place on Marblehead for the reunion, after i call and see if it is available. it is www.greatrentals.com/OH/63o2.html hope the link works. i forgot to originally include the www, so if it doesn't work, put the www in.

kevin already hates mcdonalds, but we told him that he can't quit without another job in place. he is especially griping because this is his first week at real "full-time", and as they have him on nights, he misses a lot of activities. He says, "i'll never have any time off!" all those of you who work full-time know the adjustment it takes. i did tell him that education is the only way out of mindless, boring jobs that are awful. if you like what you do, at least it makes it more bearable to work full-time.

so, kerry is gone from today til the 28th, working 11+ hour days at a great translating opportunity, and something else to put on her resume. I ask you all to pray for her, for the fatigue factor of pregnancy will make it even more difficult. don't expect to hear from her or see her blog till probably october. braden, however, has all our permission to blog.
