It's Only A Fleshwound

Isaac is the first of my children to suffer a broken bone. He was in the locker room in "pre-athletics" (guess P.E. wasn't good enough) and somehow a kid was messing with the bench, which was not bolted down and it landed on Isaac's foot. He will be on krutches for a while, but he has enjoyed a few days of staying home (his dad's house) and playing the playstation. I haven't gotten to see him since it happened, but he seems to be loving the attention.

Claire has been mothering him the way she does. It reminds me of when I was about her age and my older brother got his feet ran over. I remember a journal entry from that time complaining that I had to be his slave while he recovered. It was a role I took on myself, but apparently grew to resent--under the despotic hand of the woefully injured. I wonder if Claire will begin to feel oppressed.

The kids are with their dad during the week for this school year. Next year they will come out to Dallas to be with me personally. I am really beginning to miss having them around.

I am taking management classes right now, and though Mike is making enough money that I don't really have to work, I am thinking about trying to get a management job at a fast food resturaunt, just for the experience. It is a crazy little hairbrain, but I want to have some immediate application for what I am learning, so that I can really learn it. Besides that, it would give me something to fill in my days.

Tootles!

The Husband and kids

Emylie and Claire are priceless as they watch us. They are in love with love. Eventually I will photoshop the background to something more picturestque. After all people should know the truth. We actually had our wedding at the fiords of Sweeden. I created the present background to give everyone a sense of our mundane selves. I thought it a more appropriate first impression for our wedding. Sorry for the deception. LOL

Resurrection

I'm back from the blogger dead! I just recieved some wedding pictures from my dad. I had some others, that those who were at the reunion saw, but the general public has been deprived of view of me and my new family. It is clear from the pictures that it was rather informal, but it got the job done.

For those who have not yet recieved an email notification from me, I have launched the bare minimum Phase I of my business, Excitone. I have included the link here which will give you access to a music library of nearly 2 million songs and allow to earn points for sharing the music you love with your friends so that you can get free downloads and discounts. Right now I am listening to my "True or Falsetto" showcase music. Check it out. There will be a lot more features in future incarnations. Stay tuned.
