The V-man has been away this past week....at summer camp with his cousins. Actually....they're my cousin's kids....you do the math.
Camp fires, smores, scary stories. Sleeping in cabins. Horseback riding. Arts & Crafts. Archery. The whole sh'bang.
He's been away for longer amounts of time...but never where I can't just call him up & talk to him. It's killing me.
I'm sure he's having a fabulous time. Probably doesn't even miss his smothering mother.
He comes home tomorrow. I'm going to squeeze that dugalboy till his head pops off.
the boys...

ReplyDeleteI'm confused! I thought the little man was your twin's kid. That's your little man? Away at camp? Oh my god!! Soul Brother #2 is five. I won't be ready for him to go to camp until he's 18!
ReplyDeleteYes...the longhair is mine. He'll be 7 next week. He still lets me hold his hand in public.... ;-)
ReplyDelete'Live long and prosper' - please don't pop his head.
ReplyDelete"... he still lets me hold his hand in publi" oh I really miss that
ReplyDeleteYours has even longer hair than mine. Bleedin' hippies.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you shouldn't squeeze quite so hard - awful lot of clearing up to do - and the neighbours may start to talk....
I can't wait to send my little demon to camp.
ReplyDeleteDamn, I thought I had long hair when I was that age! He should be in a band with hair like that...
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI’ve been reading and enjoying your blog for sometime now. I love how your posts truly connect to your readership. I’m interested to have an interactive/link-up/post with you. I’ve written a book that you and your audience might enjoy and am preparing to do a virtual blog tour and would love an opportunity to participate on your blog.
However, my young adult book ‘Turtle Feet, Surfer’s Beat’ is only a small part of what I’m trying to build. The book itself revolves around a typical suburban teen girl, Penelope, from the States that is forced to go to Costa Rica with her parents for her father’s job assignment. Involuntarily, her parents sign up Penelope and her little brother to spend two weeks at the Leatherback turtle biological station (for ‘their own good’). Penelope, obviously isn’t pleased but forgives the horrid accommodations and the never ending bug brigade as she sees the turtle and instantly pledges to do all she can to help it from extinction. But hang ten, dudes! Penelope is about to get help. One lonely night, as she’s patrolling the beach for turtle poachers she stumbles and falls directly into the arms of the local surf champ. Together they dive into the world of surfing and marine preservation.
These days, we are constantly facing global problems that seem to be getting worse and worse daily. Living in Costa Rica, I’ve been inspired to take action. I started by writing this book and am now developing a community of teens, surfers, artists, scientist, and everyone else who is interested in working together to have fun while helping out.
I would love to join forces with you and your readers in a fun, interactive way. I will gladly write a post about your blog (and whatever you will like to plug:), plus a link with your blog to my website and blog, in return for a review of my book and/or small interview.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon. I can get a copy out to you ASAP.
Thanks so much,
marina

ReplyDeleteMarina - please get a turtle out to me asap! Their fins make such wonderful soup I'm told. Pots on the stove, can't wait.
