So I don't really have much of interest, but I figured I should make a habit of writing something here every week so I don't forget about it again, especially since I have so much time on my hands these days. First, that picture over there on the left: I was going to post a picture that we took a few weeks ago in front of our house, but it's either still on the camera, or on the other computer, and I am too lazy to fix the situation right now. As you can see, this is a low-resolution proof not intended for distribution. I was regretting not having ordered a copy of this picture, but realized that it's out of date anyway. Kind of makes me think, what's the point of paying money for a family portrait that will be outdated upon the arrival of the next child? Next, update on jobs and Navy stuff: there is no real update. I am waiting on letters of recommendation to flow in, and trying to figure out if I can just send them a copy of my most recent health assessment thing or if I need a new one for some reason (the recruiter and civilian processor share the same apathy for my situation and do not respond to my inquiries in a timely manner, or any manner for that matter, come to think of it, neither one has responded to an email or returned a phone call). I started looking into ADT (Active Duty for Training) opportunities (basically, it's a different pot of money beyond my "two-weeks a year") and was initially encouraged at the many opportunities that were listed, including one in Panama for 45 days. That position was already filled and I have not heard back on any others, we shall see what the future holds. Last, the mundane activities of the last week or so: The yard looked really nice for a few days, but the grass grows quickly and now it's just nice, not really nice. We had fun on Memorial Day playing softball up in Salt Lake with my brother's family. We had a flag ceremony here in the morning, did some stuff around the house, then drove up there for a picnic and softball. Belle's urologist thinks her problems are caused by repetitive UTI's. After we clear this one up he wants to maintain her on a low dose of antibiotics as a prophylaxis (a preventive measure). We had fun playing on the ward coed softball team last night as well. We are preparing for our trip to California and Disneyland, but it's hard because Amy and I have very different opinions of what makes a good vacation (fill every waking minute of every day with some scheduled activity or event: Amy, v. kick back, relax, do a few things here and there as the urge comes: me).

Nothing really.
