My how time flies! It’s been six months since I added to this blog….
Life has changed a little. I went back to the elementary classroom for a year (See the Higher ED vs. K-12 blog at http://www.learningbyts.net/Blog/K12vsHigherED/2004/10/higher-ed-vs-k-12.html for more details).
Ken just helped Mom move into a Senior apartment, Uncle Gene is currently in the hospital, and we’re going to be grandparents again in September.
I’m still plowing away at my dissertation, so don’t have much time to keep up this blog…
So it’s back to writing for me.
For some reason, this blog is not posting comments on a timely basis. So if you post a comment and it doesn’t show up after 5 minutes, please email Barb at barb@learningbyts.net and let her know.
Thanks,
Barb
The “Outlaws/Inlaws” are very proud of the “Newly Weds” and wish them “Best Wishes and Lots of Love”. The wedding was a “Dream Wedding” especially since the weather was “topsy turby”… from “Bonnie and Charlie” and the fact that it was “Friday the 13th of Aug 2004”!
FYI: Just like any other normal families… when we do not see eye to eye on issue’s then we are “Outlaws” instead of “taking an eye for an eye”. All the other times we are Proud to be the “In-laws”!!!
From the Clark and Stinebaugh Families :>)))
Well, that went well…. the conference went so fast, followed by a week in Maryland soaking up Maryland seafood, culture and the ocean, not to mention Jocie’s wedding. Then a week at home with Gary visiting and showing him the sites.
So … how much of the conference stayed with me??? Hmmm.. it’s hard to remember back that far.
However,… I DO remember sitting on the beach, and Jocie’s wedding was SO much fun! She was a gorgeous bride, and everything went smoothly from a guest’s standpoint. However, you’ll probably get a different story if you ask the bride herself, or either of the “outlaws” as they are calling themselves. It’s good that they get along so well. Hopefully, it will make life easier for the two newlyweds…
Gary’s favorite visit this week was to the Old West town of Buckskin Joe’s where he witnessed a gunfight and hanging. However, he says if he were the owner of the tourist spot, he’d not allow the shooting. I guess we didn’t do bad as parents… He and Ken are off to take a cog rail ride to the top of Pike’s Peak.
And I’m off to focus on my idea paper for my dissertation….
Later,
Barb
