news of larryl

so in some strange twist of fate, i have now dropped out of work, to go back to school.

in the fall of 2007, i will officially be a college student again, pursuing my degree in music. i should have done it years ago, instead of quitting to follow the almighty dollar, over my dreams. i am now seeking employment with a schedule flexible enough to let me do this, while still paying that whole child support thing. if you know of something, feel free to let me know. i will be super-sizing your combo soon, if i don't find something.

the camping trip was a great success. the kids loved it, and came home as filthy as two children have ever been. i would have hosed them off before bringing them in, had it not been so cold, and they not been asleep. my daughter, entrepreneur that she is, was trying to sell pottery made from the clay we found there, but no one seemed interesting. i'm sure she will be a great success selling something, someday.

that's about it for now.

so let it be written, so let it be done.

into the great outdoors

so this weekend we go camping....me, the 7 yr old, and the 3 yr old. should be quite an adventure. i do know there will be 4-wheelers, and other activities, and shooting for the adults, and i would guess some kids activites, too. it's church camping trip, so these things get planned.

we camped a lot growing up. in fact, i seldom remember staying in a hotel on vacation. and that's ok with me. while i like hotels now, as an adult, i still love waking up on a crisp morning, crawling out of the tent, and stirring last night's campfire. maybe looking around, seeing a deer, or raccoon, or at least the tracks of one. if you've never done it, i suggest you do, as soon as possible. (partially because it will be cold soon). it's an experience you won't soon forget.

who knows, i may even steak a trick from my ever witty sister, and put a few pic's up. i suppose the 4 of you who read this already know what my kids look like, so there is little danger in posting pics of them here.

look!! i accomplished an entire post on ONE subject. i am so proud of me.

so let it be written, so let it be done.
