Back In Service

Since I'm no longer in hiding from the dysfunctional family, I decided to return to my community service roots. I've done a lot of projects in the past, but had to stop about five or six years ago when the dyfunctional family feud reached new highs (or lows, depending on your point of view).

I got a new assignment to lead a bunch of young volunteers at a museum once a month. I'm thinking of leading a library project once a month also. I've also been getting back into the mentoring programs. Now that I've started to curb the travel schedule, it's nice to be back on all of the projects again. I should have done this a long time ago.

It's back to basics once again, I suppose. I'm determined to get the storm of paperwork under control at the homefront. The scanner project has hit a bit of a snag, since the inbound paperwork seems to be outpacing my processing abilities. By the end of the year, I hope to see the bottom of my desk. Now that would be a major accomplishment. See ya.

Reunion

I spent the weekend in San Francisco at a family reunion of sorts. You see, I've been absent, or in hiding, for the last twenty-three years. I've got a really dysfunctional family that transcends several generations. You see, this was the first time that someone in my generation of the family got involved with the chaos created all those years ago. Since my cover was now blown, I decided that it was time to make contact with the family in San Francisco. For the first time since we were kids, I met up with most of my cousins, and filled them in with the events of the last two decades. The dysfunctional family secrets were now out to everyone in my generation.

Bottom line, I have part of my family back after all these years. Am I going to let the "adults" take over? Have I ever been one to sit on the sidelines when my life is at stake? Of course not. After putting our resources together, I think we can finally win this battle. The dysfunctional family feud rages onward. See ya.
