HIya Gran.
I am still working fulltime and spending way too much of my left over time playing Texas Hold 'Em. It's a lot of fun and great socialization.
My boss showed up at the sports bar where I play last night and now he's hooked on the game, too. Several people from work are going to try to close the store real fast tonight and make the 9 pm game. It's crazy.
I'm not dating much, just hanging out with friends.
The boys are well. Only the youngest is home with me now. Gabe is 16. The oldest will be going to Iraq next month if his schedule hasn't changed.

There you are, Val. I love Texas Hold-em. Do you play for money or just the glory?

Wow..Gabe is getting to be an old man...lol, and the oldest is on his way to Iraq? Wasn't he in Germany last I knew?

I hope he's watched over while there, and he stays safe for you and the family.

Hi Val

Great to see you posting, it's been a while. My older son plays hold em.......it's got to be some kind of new religion.....:-)

Kudos to your older son. It will be an honor to go on the adventure of his generation. When our third was there for a year, he just hated when people felt sorry for him for going, just thought they didn't understand.......

He is a man you can be proud of. He will be your very own hero.
