I wrote a small entry in my short story blog. I will try to get back on track with the story soon. I haven't had much time to write lately with my new job. Can't wait to get more of the story out. Thanks again for following along.

I've started my third week at my new job and I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable there. It kind of feels similar to when I first started at Wright Business Graphics. I'm looking forward to the future there. I like the people and the work keeps my brain going all day. I like it so far.

I figure while I'm on the train every day I will get some writing done. I'm now commuting from Beaverton, so I have a little time to burn. Over the next couple of days I will try to get a little more of the story about Mars written. I don't know exactly how it will go, but I have a few ideas. This is the first time I've done anything like this, so I'm flying by the seat of my pants. I have been so excited to see that so many people have come to my page to read and enjoy. There was one day that I had about six hundred people read my blog. I know that in internet terms that's not a huge deal, but to me it is amazing. Thank you so much! I will try to keep things interesting. Also, please give me feedback on my little stories. I would love to have a little interaction. There are Many stories I have running around in my head, and I think it's time to get them out. Have patients though I'm not a writer, but I have fun with it. Look the next Mars entry soon.

Started my 2nd week of work. I'm still very confused about things, but that is just all part of starting a new job I guess. Iv'e started to do some live jobs today that have helped to make sense of the workflow. I'm mentally very tired though, and it is a longer commute than I'm used to. On the bright side, they are going to pay for my Max pass, and that will save me a lot.

Peter and I were able to harvest four cucumbers and a bunch of tomatoes. Also, we just noticed that we have a couple of ears of corn. We are very excited about it. Our pumpkins are also doing very well. I don't think we will have to go to the pumpkin patch. I guess we have a pretty green thumbs. Happy day!

I'm very excited. Peter and I have purchased several plants of bamboo for our new yard. We have had a passion for bamboo for years now, and the new plant have made our new house even more like a home. I love it, and I can't wait for them to grow into nice hedge in our back yard.

We got them at the Bamboo Gardens. It is a little bit of a drive, but the prices are good and the people there are very knowledgeable. There are quite a few acres of different varieties of bamboo on display, so even if you don't want to buy any plants, it is fun to walk through. It was a good weekend.

All in the background, tiring, full, and black. The sunroof cracked, and the sounds of music and talk radio coming in from all sides. I look over and see people singing to tunes, yelling at the cars around them, and whipping past. The day is late, and it is stop and go. Sun in your eyes, and thinking about the day. Wondering, should I have taken the train today? All the while thinking of home. This is why you are on the road. It's for the person you love, the life we build, and down the road is the life you live.

Iv'e just uploaded another snippet  of the story about James and his travels to Mars. Now stuck in a safe area of the ship, and there is only 7 more day for him to get to his destination on Mars.

Hello everyone! Looks like I'm going to start a new job this week. Just waiting to hear back from the HR Manager when my start date will be. The process is on hold until they get the drug screen back. I'm thinking they will get the results today, so I might start working there as soon as tomorrow. I can't wait! I'm very excited!

I have rearranged my site a little bit. You might have noticed that I have been writing more in my blog and my short stories section of my website. I want to concentrate on that more than my portfolio. I'm hoping that the site will generate a little extra income. Thank you for coming and reading my entries. I don't know where my writings will lead, but I have fun doing them and that's really all that counts.

For the past week we have had our nephew and niece staying with us. It has been so much fun having them. There is nothing like the connection of family to make you smile, and we smiled a lot this past week.

We were able to go to the river on three separate occasions, we had fun ice cream treats, explored parks, and shared meals. Not to mention playing video games, and watching movies on the big screen. Thank you Miranda and Brice for coming to see us. We hope you will be able to come and see us soon! I think next time we will see how good we are at bowling again. It has been a long time. Great week!
