What Are The Kids Up To?
There hasn’t been a whole lot happening around here at the moment so I thought I’d just prattle on a bit about what everyone has been getting up to (you still remember me, right?). Which isn’t very exciting, but what can ya do about it, right? The family has been going through a bit of a boring patch lately. Anyway, I think I’ll start with Amby for once.
So, what has been happening at Amby’s lately? Well, not a lot, to tell you the truth. She’s been promoted to Business Tycoon, which means she gets to ride in a helicopter, too, and Chandler’s been promoted to Dinosaur Cloner, where he reckons he’s staying until he retires. As for young Dollar (or Dolly, as everyone calls her), she’s taken a big liking to mini-golf.
Nothing has been happening over at Alkanet’s either, although Alkanet got promoted to Visionary (but that happened a while ago), and MC and Scarum still get on like a house on fire.
Now, had that been Amby and I when we were kids, we would have been fighting like cats and dogs! And, just for the record, I never started any of those fights! Anyway, while they’re kids were horsing around, Alkanet and Blake took a few moments to relax.
Hah, relax! I’ve forgotten the meaning of that particular word! Still, Alkanet and Blake haven’t got mischievious twins to disturn their peace and quiet.
I swear, those boys of mine are getting worse!
They’re both in trouble for telling the teacher that their Uncle Chandler’s cow plant ate their homework at the moment, but, funnily enough, the teacher didn’t believe a word of it (she did give them points for originality, however. I guess it gets boring after a while, hearing the same old excuses!).
Adi has, thank goodness, gone sour on the idea of ten kids. I get worn out just playing with Katie and her brothers! Ten of them would probably kill me!
Abe out!
(Okay, since there was one vote each for Romance, Family and Fortune, I’ll roll a dice. 1 or 4 will be Romance, 2 and 5 will be Family, and 3 or 6 will be Fortune. Oh, and Katie, that dog is kind of cute!)
I hate when I go through boring patches, and I just can’t find my family interesting. I’ll read anything you write, though, and I can’t wait for another college story!

Oh I’m so glad to see that the Mellon’s are still alive and well! All the kids are growing up so fast! Seems like just yesterday little MC joined the family! Sorry it’s been a while since I’ve commented…I’ve been moving for the past week or so, and been super busy with that. But now we’re half way done…just unpacking left, so I have more time to catch back up on my favorite blogs! So anyhoo, I’m off to read your other updates!
