We're Back!

Yes we are still here! We humbly apologize to everyone (both of you) who have faithfully checked this blog for some new item. We had a spurt of entry's a month or so ago, and then they just dried up. It's kind of hard to say why - real busy is what comes to mind, but then isn't everyone? So that doesn't seem to be too adequate. Maybe it's more of a change in the way we've been busy.

Both Marlene and I continue to fill our acting positions (mine for more than 6 months now - Marlene's for almost the same amount of time. Before I assumed this role, it seems like I had a little more time to do this, (bogging) during the work day - like lunch, and sometimes before work, but now I seem to be using every free minute at work to....well, work. I think for Marlene it's is the same situation. On top of that I seem to be getting out of work later than usual. I used to try to leave by 4:00 (I usually get there around 7:00) , but now it's not unusual to be there till 5:00, 6:00 or sometimes later. Since it takes at least an hour and a half to drive home (usually closer to 2 hours), and then cook dinner - by the time that's done and we've let the dogs in and out a hundred times - well you get the idea.

But were going to try to be more regular. Wow I just noticed I missed the whole month of March.

So what happened in March? Well there was Saint Patrick's day... we participated with the Wolfhounds in the annual parade in Portland. There was Easter... went to Seattle for that, and then had another Easter Dinner the next weekend for Molly, Rob & the Kids. Had some Vets visits....Sailor is up to 150 lbs! Heartman - 175!

I know there must be a lot of other things that have happened, but for the life of me I can't remember...I am getting close to 60 you know.

Well, let this be the start of more regular postings....don't give up on us, keep checking back. I promise they will get better.
