I'm trying to decide how to give the Reader's Digest of the last few years. There have been a few ups some major downs and some regular life in the middle. I should start by going back to the last entry where I actually posted something of interest and just do a hi-light (is that right) reel.
I am also going to have refigure out how to add images and all that sort again. Let's try this now with a piece of the present
This is us December of 2012
Starting we me on the lower right and going clockwise. Paul 46, Barbara 46, Robert 25, Samantha 13, Alex 24
What we're all doing now.
I'm working in the carbide cutting tool industry full time during the day and running my lapping compound business the rest of the time.
Barb is now Senior Staff accountant and office manager at her company.
Robert is Petty Officer 2nd Class in the Coast Guard. (he hasn't actually been on a boat in three years but who's counting)
Alex is bucking for management now that he's been with Geico for a few years. (He outgrew the gecko suit)
Samantha is in the 8th grade, on the honor roll, and doing a fine job being a teenage girl (I know ALL the One Direction Songs!)
I suppose that is enough about the present for now. Next time we'll go back to just after August in 2009 when Barb had first been diagnosed with DCIS in her left breast. That's all for now. There's supposed to be a storm coming so I may have to dig us out in the morning and have to be at work early as I'm covering for one of the shift supervisors. yay!
Cheers
