Sorry I didn't get a chance to return to blogging earlier this week, but life has been very busy. As a result of having fewer people to do the work since our layoffs, my workload has doubled. I've spent more time at the office and have done more work from home in order to keep up. It hasn't been too bad so far, but definitely is keeping me busy.

Real estate has calmed down a bit for me. I am still working with three different clients, but their work and personal schedules don't leave a lot of time to look at homes. So, I may show three or four houses in a week which only takes a couple of hours.

I am taking a baby step back into theater by directing The True Story of the Big Bad Wolf at Runaway Stage Productions. Auditions are July 14th, so I hope some of you will come out to audition.

James was recently promoted to Service Manager at Chipotle. He's also had a lot of extracurricular activities with Lions Roar Dharma Center lately...plus, he was gone for 8 days for a retreat in the Santa Cruz mountains area last month. He's there again today for another empowerment ceremony, but will be home late tonight in time for our 4th of July celebration tomorrow.

Mom will be making a California trek here shortly. We're looking at flights sometime in August, so I am looking forward to see her.
.
Blessings go out to you all along with wishes for a safe and happy 4th of July. We've come so far as a country since the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776. Even though we still have a lot of room for improvement, I believe we live in the best country in the world. Celebrate that freedom this weekend with people you love!
