New Adventures

Well, last night I started a creative writing class at the Fort Wayne Community Center. I basically wanted to do it so I could get out of the house for a couple of hours on my own each week, but I've also always thought it would be neat to write a book. By the time I'm finished with the class (8 weeks), I should have a 5000 word story, so that will be cool.

For our first class, we discussed characterization, but I feel like we just "touched" on the subject. Our assignment is to write a 500 word character sketch and already I'm at a loss. I'm not really sure how to start the character, if I don't really know the plot of my story yet. The instructor said that you can do it two ways, start with the character and build the plot from there, or start with the plot and build the character to fit. I really think I should have my plot first because I don't want to start the character without know what they will be involved in. I don't know, maybe I'm making more out of it than I should. She did say if we had time, we could do two or more characters. Yeah right!! Who has time. Anyway, I liked the class and think I will continue to enjoy it.

Good Eye Ryan!!

Ryan (2.5 yrs) ran into the kitchen this morning, completely out of breath and yelling "Mommy, there's a HUGE ant in ours hallway!!!" Madison (3.5 yrs) and I ran to the hall to see, so we could "get it". I asked him where it was so he got down on his hands and knees and began searching. He found a piece of something, but Madison quickly pointed out, "that's probly just a piece of fuzz Ryan", which it was. Madison and I walked away, while Ryan continued to look. A few minutes later Ryan yelled to us that he found it. So, we both came back to look. Way down, deep in the corner, making it's way acrossed the carpet was the SMALLEST ant I have ever seen in my life!! Too cute.

I know...

It's been forever since I wrote anything. I think from now on I'm going to come up with a topic and just write. That way I'll have to do it everyday!!

So much has happend since the last time...Aaron is working, Morgan had her birthday, Halloween, Thanksgiving. I'll add pics later, I'm not at home right now so I don't have any files.

Wow, it's been over a month since I posted an entry!! Since then, it seems as though my world is collapsing around me!! So, what's happened since the end of August?

Madison's 3rd birthday was August 30th. She got a "Princess Castle" cake.

Ryan's 2nd birthday was September 18th. He got a "Lego" cake.

We went to the zoo for the second time this year. St. Francis had their annual Zoo Day which is really fun. All alumni and their families can get in at a discounted rate and have lunch etc. The kids got their faces painted and got to meet "Johnny Cougar".

Speaking of St. Francis, the football team broke their 54 game (8 years!!), regular season winning streak last week, with a loss to Ohio Dominican. Chances are, we'll see them again in the playoffs!!

Aaron took a job with Banker's Life and Casualty, selling insurance and Medicare supplements. It's strictly commission which is why my world seems to be collapsing!! There is alot of stress when there's no money coming in. However, we're very confident that he will be successful at it and we've put it all in God's hands.

Well that's about all of the important things. Morgan's first birthday is right around the corner and of course Halloween. Hopefully it won't be another month 'til my next post!!
