Written off?
Posted by mike on 17th November 2010
Just wanted to post a quick note to let everyone know I have not “written off” this blog… I’ve just been wrapped up in some other projects. I have another site I’ve been working on, and have also been taking care of the farm for the last year. I get so wrapped up in stuff and just lose track of how long it has been since I last posted. A couple of updates…
Recently the boys and I took our annual 4-wheeling trip to West Virginia… good times, as always! My new ATV held up great and I probably had more fun this year than we’ve ever had. If only we could talk our friend Danny into buying his own ATV, we’d be set. I’m ready to go again.
The kids are both in school now, and doing great. I’m so proud of them! I give a lot of credit to Emily for getting them academically ready for school. Sure, pre-school helped, but there is no substitute for trips to the library, art museum, zoo, practicing letters and numbers at home, etc. Both of the kids have a love for reading, which is just awesome. And they both say they like math, which means they got that from someone other than me. lol!
As noted before, I’ve been taking care of boarding horses at my grandparent’s farm since my grandpa died last Thanksgiving. It’s hard to believe it has been a year now. Overall it’s going well. I’ve learned so much about electric fence, I could probably start a business. But it’s been very educational and has been “good medicine” for the heart.
Oh, and I sold “old blue”… I’ll try to follow up on that soon!
I hope everyone who stumbles across this (and the 3 people who subscribe) has a great Thanksgiving!
Mike
