Hey gang! Yeah, I've been slack about blogging. Just when postwar life started getting "normal" again, it's time to "ACAP" (Army Career and Alumni Program), ie transition from "army green to corporate grey". Have had a couple of appointments and workshops so far. Finally got 2 resume's done last night, one for a radiation monitoring job in Illinois and a Chem/Bio Analyst job in Northern Va. We'll see how those go. Although I can do most the jobs I've looked at, it appears they want twice the years experience that I have or a degree in a science. Wonder if they count a Theatre degree from the College of Arts and Sciences? Sorry, lame attempt at humor.
Family is doing well. We went on vacation in Williamsburg the Saturday before Izzy hit. Got everything in before she hit: Busch Gardens on Sunday, Jamestown-Monday, Yorktown-Tuesday and Colonial Williamsburg on Wed. We lost power a couple hours after Mom and Dad on Thursday and checked out and went to Norfolk to help out how we could. Saturday morning I handed mom her breakfast and she handed me a full bed pan. Ha! Ha! Before and after. Hehehehe Sorry, Mom! Michelle and kids are doing okay. Chris's Webelos ('tween Cub and Boy Scout) Patrol went to the ABC Station in Savannah and they had a little about their trip to the weather section of the station on the 6 o'clock news. Following in his Dad and Granddad's footsteps I guess.
Speaking of scouting....It's that time again. Yep, the Girl Scouts have cookies, Cub Scouts have popcorn sales. Not sure when deadline is, but I think it's soon. Am supposed to talk to his Patrol leader tomorrow. They're doing cash up front orders this time, so if you want to order them, give us a call and send us the checks and we'll pay the Patrol from our account. Mom and Dad have the order sheet, but you can look at the things available at: www.trails-end.com.
Well, that's about it. Need to get to bed. "Talk" to everybody blogger.
