Another bad blogger update

I feel like I used to be better at this, perhaps because more was going on, perhaps because I was less lazy. I want to get into the habit of blogging at least once a week.

Pictures are still to come, since I'm currently at work and don't have my camera on me.

The biggest news, and what prompted me to go ahead and sit down today, is that Herman's uncle Charlie has just been diagnosed with inoperable, and un-treatable cancer. Herman is very upset and we will be going up this weekend to see him.

We would go sooner, but Herman is working out of town this week. Hours are finally picking up for him which has been a blessing, even if it does mean he's out of town for a week or so at a time. Due to his uncle's condition, he is planning on trying to get on a Portland based team, in case something takes a turn for the worse.

Last weekend was a boys reunion weekend, which Herman thoroughly enjoyed. He got to go camping with his boyhood friends, out in the wilds of Oregon. The trip by all accounts was a huge success, despite having some roadblocks present problems. Herman returned home full of laughter, stress free, and happy. They have not all gotten together for close to 10 years.

As the last post said, I am currently on the job hunt. I was told that I would not be back at my school next year, and have been applying to positions like crazy. I had an interview for a long shot position last week, but didn't get it. I have a friend from my school last year who is putting in a good word for me at her new school so that we can work together. I have contacted the principal and am crossing my fingers. If I get it, I would be a middle school language arts teacher, just as I am trained to be.

This weekend, in addition to our trip to Longview to see Herman's uncle, we will have Lindsay and Josh back in town for his birthday weekend out at the coast. :)
