Summary of Recent Stuff

Sorry for the long silence. We've been busy! Besides regular business, we have a lot going on, and yet not much at all. Many pots on the stove, but nothing ready to eat, so to speak. Ken's parents visited for fives days a couple weekends ago. Then his sister and her kids came for a week during their spring break. Had a great time with them; only wish the weather would've been better for touristy activities.

We're in the process of trying to buy a condo. It's new construction, and won't be ready til November, at least. We're just hoping to get in, because there's a long wait-list. The prices goes up by $15-20K with each phase release, so we need to get a contract soon before we're priced out.

Ken and eight or so of his co-workers got laid off a couple weeks ago. But then the company realized how stupid it was to let him go, so they've hired him back (with some sucking up and a raise). He'll probably get some overtime, too. In fact, he's going to work today (Sunday) after we enjoy the Sunday brunch at the Alamo.

We're headed to Hawaii for 10 days in May (5 in Oahu and 5 on the Big Island); can't wait for the night-time manta ray dive! Then Ken starts school after the trip (Computer Network Systems Engineering). That's a reasonable summary of our latest adventures. :o)
