Family Time

Our youngest daughter stayed home while we were on our trip. My mom stayed at our house with her while we were gone. Having been selected as a section leader in band, she didn’t want to leave her responsibilities to the new band members. We agreed. Upon returning, we were very happy to see her and she was happy to see us.
Our younger son is in Pennsylvania playing pro baseball. He sometimes thinks his career may be ending soon but he’s hanging tough. Although we didn’t get to see him play, we did watch his team and got to see him in uniform. We spent the following day with him before he had to report back to the ball field. He has a very positive attitude and we hope his dreams pan out for him.
Our older daughter graduated from Navy Officer Development School. She was very excited to graduate and happy to have gone through the experience. Although she is headquartered out of the Navy hospital in Beaufort, SC., she has been assigned as the sole healthcare administrator to the nearby Parris Island medical clinic. That is the clinic on the Marine Corps base. The Marines don’t have medical personnel; the Navy takes care of them.
Our oldest child is on a business trip in Orlando. He is an electrical & computer engineer who is a civil service employee working for the Navy. He mainly works with flight simulators and is currently working on procuring the next generation of simulators.
Eileen goes to the hospital this morning. She’s been doing the preparatory regimen for her surgery. She seems ready.
As for me, I’ve slept most of Monday. I can’t recall ever sleeping that much in one day; I must have needed it. I wrote this blog post Monday night so that I could feel like I did something!!
