Just another day in paradise!

Well, it's my 2nd anniversary today and I still love my darling wife so very, very much!

The boys (my step-sons, aged 15 and 17) are out of school for the summer. In a week or two summer school will start. They're good kids and I feel bad that they're losing a chunk of vacation for this.

I reunited with my kids from a previous marriage around Christmas time. My son is finally starting to settle down (he's 27) and is doing well at work. My daughter isn't doing as well. She held a job for 4 months and quit it last week because the boss was yelling at her - we'll see how things work out in the long term for her (she's 25).

I'm recovering from a serious series of corneal ulcers that have been going on for the last 6 months or so. The latest one nearly perforated my eyeball, and I'm really grateful to my cornea specialist for saving the eye. I still haven't regained all the vision in that eye (the right one), but it's coming along slowly.

Lot's of work in the yard to do (and in the house too!). I'm feeling better now, and am able to get more done before I collapse for the day. Just finished fixing the garage doors, and then I'll go out and start the wiring for our patio lights and bug zapper!

Not much else to say - I could ramble on for days, but I've got work to do :)
