I wrote a bit about why I have not been blogging here, so I won’t rehash it all. I am going to try to catch up and backdate the posts for the past month, so if you do not use a reader, you might have to do a bit of clicking. I’ll try to do them in order, so they will show up right behind this one from oldest to newest. Be patient.

I was selected for the developmental assignment in Washington D.C. So far, I know nothing other than I need to go there… soon. I need to find a place to live (probably just a hotel) figure out when to report, how long I can stay, etc. The assignment is for “not to exceed 180 days,” but I told my new temporary boss when I applied that three months was about my maximum. It really depends on Kevin’s basketball schedule. I also know that my supervisor (current) told my new temporary supervisor that she must send me back to Tulsa, which was the same agreement as last summer. I feel a bit… like I am a bargaining piece. In other words– I can be lent out, but I must be returned. LOL!

Kevin is supportive of this move. I think we both realize that some day he will stop playing basketball, and for some undefined period of time while he transitions, I will be the breadwinner, and beyond that period of time, my job will be the foundation of our family’s income and stability. Well, as much stability as you can get on this Earth anyway.  I believe, but do not know details, that he will be coming to D.C. to stay for some of the time, but I am not sure how many trips or for how long.

Kevin has his own news to report, but because he is not writing, I will spill the beans for him. He was invited to the South Korea tryout in Las Vegas in July. Yes, this creates a bit of a predicament, as both of us need to be gone at the same time, so we are exploring some options on that front.  Anyway, he’ll be out there for four days or so. It is my understanding that they play games for a couple of days and have a draft on a third day. Maybe Kevin can post and correct me if I am out there.

Slowly, but surely, amidst the chaos of our life, I will catch the blog up!
