It's Been a While

Well, we're half way through summer and it just doesn't seem like it. Living in Nebraska, days are supposed to be in the upper 90's and humid with not much rain during a given week starting in mid-June. So far, it has stayed in the upper 80's (sometimes 70's) and has rained A LOT! This is a good thing, since the Husker State tends to be pretty dry, but there has got to be a good balance. Anyway....

We're still adjusting to Katie working as an RN in a local ICU. She has training and orientation for critical care until early September, so we're still dealing with a schedule which varies each week. Once Kate is all done, she will go to a night schedule (it was her choice). I am dealing with hearing stories about traumas - ugh. But, it is fun to see how much Katie loves what she does.

The kids have been in a day camp all summer and have loved it. They're gotten to goto Memorial Stadium here in Lincoln, see the baseball park where Nebr and our local single A baseball team play, been to the US Roller Skating Museum and Hall of Fame (yes, one does exist) and have been taking swimming lessons among many others things.

My geezer lacrosse team - the Omaha Rhinos West - wrapped up their season this past Saturday in Kansas City. We had a double header and technically lost both. For the first, we forfeited to Wichita because half our team was 30 minutes late due to road construction. But, they still wanted to play once we got there and we beat them. What do they say about moral victories? We were pretty much ticked so it gave us motivation.

I also gearing up to resume theology at my church this Saturday. A few have mentioned that they miss my "unique" perspective, i.e. reformed theology at a dispensational bible church. But, everyone has been kind and there haven't been any nasty debates.

I am also gearing up for Lincoln Lacrosse's fall season.

That's catching everyone one up.
