Oregon

It's been a while since either of us have made a blog post and a lot has changed. The big one is that Pamela and I have moved to Oregon. Thankfully I'm pretty sure nobody uses this blog as the main way to keep track of our lives. Anyways, we're currently living with Pamela's parents in her hometown of Philomath and we hope that our being here can relieve Kent and Barbara somewhat as they care for Barbara's 89 year old father Ted who has Alzheimer's and also lives here. Kent started blogging about Ted and Alzheimer's a few months ago when Ted moved in; his blog is http://caring4ted.blogspot.com/
Our first few weeks here have been very busy as Pamela's sister, her husband, and our niece and nephew had been here as well and we'd been spending a lot of time with them.
On the job front I got hired to work at the farm stand at local farm called Heavenly Harvest and have been there for a few weeks. I may update more about that later. Pamela recently got hired at the local Center Against Rape and Domestic Violence (CARDV) and is very excited about it. I'll bug her to post more info about that sometime.
I'm hoping to begin writing on here more regularly about things I'm reading and thinking about. I have never consistently maintained a journal and hope that writing here will help me process and solidify things in my mind.
