so much to talk about  too much for one blog post.  had a very nice trip to the beach with the family...the drive went well and all made it back home safe and sound.  I was a little puny while we were there,but they seemed to carry on just fine without me.  Al did get to see Jerry more than once and his grandkids.  I had never met Savannah or CJ.  still havent met samson.  may someday

it seems that I am hurrying summer so I can retire.  I don't mean to  but I think it would be very nice to be home for a while and then maybe something part time  All these days off make me want to have more off.  I'm not the same person I was 8 years ago, the drive to sell really isn't in me but I don't want to get fired either.

I have read lots of books and will past them later.  I do love the ipad and the free books.
