As of December 23, 2016, I gave up on my dreams of being a teacher. I have turned my back on the whole bloody mess. I am unemployed, or if you wanted to be kind, retired.

I am working to be the best house-husband money can buy. I do the shopping, I cook suppers about 1/2 the time, I run errands, and I keep busy at any number of things. I've been rediscovering the joy of mowing the lawn lately. (Makes me want a goat.) Last week I took on the job of registering Wakana's car. She was very grateful.

I am also working at cleaning up the clutter in this house. We have a small house and enough junk to fill up a medium to large house.

And I'm trying to write. It's nothing special. It's a fantasy (swords & magic) type story that's been whirling around in my head for a while. I'm having fun trying to put it all together.
