What's going on people, it's John. long time no write. SORRY.. I don't have much to say, Amanda wrote about our vacation. Here is a picture of one of the many fish we caught.

On the work front, I hit my 1 year service mark as a career employee at the post office. I requested to become a union steward. A few days ago I got a letter it stated that after training on July 9 I will be appointed to a alternate steward(fill in steward.) This is not a full time steward position like I wanted, but it is a good step towards becoming a shop steward in the future. I am very grateful for the opportunity.

At home Amanda and myself have been doing little projects on the house. As much as we can with full time jobs with long hours.. I will write about some of those at a later time.

That's about it, so until next time. Check you later..

Well we finally did it.... we broke down and got a new lawn mower. Seems to ride pretty smooth and cuts the grass nicely. Even Dad seemed to enjoy the ride! Now if it would stop raining maybe we could get the rest of the lawn mowed. I tried to get the picture larger but this was a far as it would go!!

I know it has been too long since our last blog. We are both so busy...both working nights now. Both of us are now regulars at work...which means no more leaving early. : (

And when we get the chance we are doing small projects at home. We finally cleaned out the spare room and set up a sort of living room. We cleaned out the linen closet upstairs and painted it...looks pretty good. We even got the side of the house cleaned out. Looks less cluttery outside now. Lots yet to do but every little bit helps!

Here is a picture from our vacation in May!!
This is us at the Anthricite Museum.
