So much to talk about, so little time! lol!
Last week, following the 2 weeks at Second City Training Center at Chicago, Christian wasted NO time in finding a creative outlet. He went on Monday and spoke with a local child care facility about doing a “mini camp” for the kids to do a comedy segment for the talent show in August. Hopefully, after this the kids will have an interest to keep meeting as a ‘club’ once a week or every other week, something like that... Keeps his chops ready, plus when next summer rolls around, it might help him with going to Second City again he will have more experience.
My DS also registered at our local community college and will be starting classes there later in August. His first semester is 12 hours and I think that will be a good way for him to ease into transition from High School to College... He also spoke with the people our local comic book/video/video game store and I think he will look into working for them part time. I’m officially the mother of a ‘COLLEGE STUDENT’ how did that happen?
On a personal note, fueled by the excitement of all my Grandpa Gil’s information, plus Dad coming home from Italy, I am trying to connect with our family in Texas. As of yet, they have not been responsive, but I have hopes that they eventually will. My Aunt HAP has been sharing older family photos, some of which she didn’t even remember having! What a blessing!
My Grandpa Gil and Granny Anderson divorced when my Dad was younger, we never knew them together. When Grandpa Gil died he had Grandmother Margaret and thanks to our trip to North Carolina I have some pictures of them together now I get to see a younger Gil and my Granny Anderson, young, words can’t describe the happiness I see in her eyes. She has his Marine uniform coat, look at their feet! How CUTE!

Why -Bucket List Living NOW?
This is the short answer -
Several years ago my sister and I went sky diving. A day later I visited my FIL who was fighting cancer at the time and I told him what I had just done, his reply - "I always wanted to do that and now I never will get to." Why do we wait until the end of our lives to start living our dreams? And doing the things we want to do? I'm done waiting on something else to happen before I choose ME - I'm bucket list living NOW!
Please join my adventure! If you wait, you WON'T!
