Getting Back To Work


So, here I am on a Sunday morning working away on my blog before I head off to Church. I still need to get some breakfast (which I normally forget to do on Sundays) and get a car from Mom Y. My van still has a dead transmission, so w don't have “enough car” to go around when we all have to go somewhere. I'm hoping to lay my hands on enough money to get a transmission from the Pull-A-Part soon. We pulled one for Dad E. this Friday. So he may have two vans on the road soon. Once he does I may ask to borrow one until I can get mine on the road, lol.

Anyways, I was so lazy last week I didn't even get my blog post put up. I plan to do that today, so by the time you see this one I should have posted the other. As it happens I did get some other work done this past week and Worlds of Magic as well as my other two projects are moving along well. In fact, I may have some news on one of those fronts tomorrow. On a complete side note the coffee maker has started to act odd this morning. Or maybe it's the outlet... In any event, a lot of coffee makes for an easier Sunday morning.

And here are some pictures:



And the games begin:



So yea, a 1 is a "critical failure". Gabriel managed to roll 2 simultaneously, much to Alec's dismay, lol.



The younger boys were having their own fun during our goofy D&D game :)



Those tropical looking trees are Mimosas for those of you who may never have seen them. I think there are several varieties in Dominica. The next to the last picture is a gray squirrel and the last one is a robin. :)

If you feel the quality of the photos has improved you're right! Rachel got me a new camera for $10. I like it a lot :)

Anyways, we've started a new D&D campaign since Joey Miller has gone back to Pennsylvania until August or so. I'm the DM and although we've only had one session the boys seem to be enjoying it. We're supposed to play again today (which the pictures prove we did, lol). Either way, for the moment I think I'm going to “pause” this post. I need to make sure Caleb gets ready for Church and I want to wait to finish until I have more news. :)

And we are back! The good news is that the D&D game went very well and we all had a good time. The bad news is that side project #2 has been paused. Things didn't go as we hoped (and prayed), but such is sometimes the case. I'm working to buoy my spirits and get back to my regular work on Worlds of Magic ASAP. Funnily enough the failure of side project #2 might actually lead to improvements in WoM. So, that's good anyway.

Either way, I'm feeling tired and/or lazy at the moment, so I'm going to run. I hope you enjoyed the photos! Goodnight from South Carolina!!

  1. People do eat the squirrels. We don't because we're in a neighborhood right now and can't shoot them, lol. Really I've never eaten one, but I hear they're very good. Once I get a house in the country again I plan to start hunting them during the season.

    And yea, Ben does look a lot like me. The other day he was standing in a doorway with the light behind him and one of my uncles started talking to him thinking he was me, lol.
