Nostalgia

This past weekend has been one of remembering. Hubby had his 25 year high school reunion. It was interesting to watch as some of the old groups formed again, almost immediately. Then there were those who have drifted from their old friends, and looked for new relationships. There were those who had kept in touch, and those who were reunited with the group after so many years. There was even time taken to remember those who had passed on since high school. It was an interesting experience as old feelings of hurt were put to rest by some, and rekindled by others. New bonds were formed, as life had taken them all down its various paths. We never know how our connections made now will change in the future.

Military Family?

It has been awhile since I wrote, I know. I have been busy sewing like a crazy woman, and still have a lot to do. The sewing is good, as long as I take breaks and sew something different, I don't get tired of it (yet). It also helps to bring in some extra money, to help pay down some debts.
We have found though that we may be turning into a military family. The girl informed us a couple of weeks ago, that she is going to enlist. She is not absolutely certain which branch she will join, but she knows which bases she would prefer. We have a recruiting officer in our reenactment group, and he is working with her to determine what to do. It looks like we will have two military kids, and the third thinks he wants to join when he grows up, too. Do you count as a military family when the parents are the ones not enlisted?
We have also had some stress here. Around the time mom went to Calgary, our instructor car died. We managed to get a new one, and it is wonderful. We thought things were going to settle down, but now we have to find a new classroom. This came as quite a surprise to us, but our landlord has decided not to renew our lease. This might not be too big an issue, if we were in another industry, but driving schools have to be inspected by the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario, to change locations. That can take awhile, and really is the stressful part of this change. I guess we will just keep going and see how they work out, it can be hard though.
