Checking In

I haven't written anything in my blog in quite some time.  It seems my creative juices reside in a shallow puddle.  I'm not entirely sure that is a bad thing.  Stressful and emotional events seemed to be the catalyst for a good portion of my writing.  The last year or so has been lacking in emotional occurrences.  I'm not saying they haven't happened.  They just haven't been the things that blogs are made of.

With all that being said...both my boys have hit milestones again this year.  Malry turned 21 in July.  He is of legal drinking age.  I briefly entertained the idea of pouring a beer down his feeding tube.  It passed without incident.  It was another joyful/sad occasion.

Greggory started High School this fall.  This is a big one for us.  He will be participating in JROTC.  With this he will have several extracurricular activities.  We've not experienced this with Malry.  Malry went to school and came home from school with little activity in between.  Greggory, however, will be busy four days a week with practices.  He is participating in Color Guard, Physical Team, Rifle Team and Orienteering.  He also want to try out for track and archery.  Let the good times roll.

Thanks for reading
