Life is good...

Well, its been an interesting few weeks. My parents were set to move into their new house on the 1st, but because of a major screw-up on the part of the builder, the real property report had not been done or submitted to the town for approval. So my parents just got possession on the 20th! In the meantime, Mom and Dad have been living with House Spouse and me. I have enjoyed this thoroughly as we now have a full-time handyman (Dad), as well as a chef and an amazing housekeeper (Mom). Dinner has been ready to eat every night, when I get home from work, for over 2 weeks! I'm really going to miss them when they finally get settled into their new digs, but at least their only a few minutes away.

I mentioned earlier in my blog that I was playing a voice character in Orphans, a local screenplay adapted for audio podcasting. I recorded episodes 1 & 2 back in May, and last weekend, I sat down with 4 other people (including the Angry Sibling) to record episodes 3 & 4. It took about 4 hours to record the sections that my character is in, and I can honestly say that I'm humbled by the talented people who are also lending their voices to this project, as well and G & R who came up with the concept and wrote the screenplay. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to do something this interesting and entertaining.

One particular cast-member has an astonishingly large repertoire of voices...I really hope he never has any dissociative identity issues as it would be nearly impossible to find his normal voice in amongst the many he is capable of! And to top it all off, I had a great time during the recording--I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. I am very hopeful that this is only the beginning of great things for Orphans and G & R, as the concept and the writing are fantastic. I fill you in more when the podcast goes live in a few weeks!

School is going reasonably well (but slower than I'd like). I did, however, get a call today from the OT department... I have to call them back tomorrow to find out if this is the call I've been waiting for!

And last but not least, the garden... if you remember I want it to look like Eden, not the Garden of Weeden... and I think I've at least made a dent--take a look for yourself!



So far... so good...

Next week, my 20th anniversary of becoming a teenager (think about it...) :)
