A Quiet Night....

Rare, in my part of the woods.

Oldest daughter is at college this summer, but for only 4 days at a time (Sun-Wed.) Sue and Rachel are at her play rehearsal....play will be heating up soon. Tonight's rehearsal is expected to go well past 10:00 p.m. Glad school is out.

Sarah and Collin went to see Night at the Museum, II-the Smithsonian (I butchered the title, but something like that.)

Andrew is quietly on the computer, or working with his guitar. Not sure which.

Which leaves me sitting in blissful quiet--no radio, no television, telephone ringer is off, and virtually no noise. Amazing how good that can sound with just the click of keyboard keys gently interrupting the silence.

No profound thoughts tonight; just realized that I had not updated this blog in awhile and wanted to do so while I had a minute. I have, as usual, been busy--I go back and forth to Tuscaloosa twice a week now, school is winding down and I will have my "summer vacation"--all of one week off, before school begins again--and workload is very heavy right now. My "play" time, if you will, has been devoted to going to play basketball at the gym with Collin--managed to do that three times last week, and intend to do the same this week, too.

I now have some "Twitter" accounts where brief updates are posted. If you're one of the two people who occasionally read this, I can also be found at Twitter accounts CartLaw, AlabamaLawyers, DarrellKSR, and MyKSR1.

I reached age 49 last week, and age 50 now is ahead of me more quickly every day. I don't feel that old. I'm out of shape and overweight, but basketball--even though it's fairly gentle--still comes rather easily and I'm enjoying it. Looked at pictures from 23 years ago last week (from Hawaii), and saw how skinny I used to be. Would like to approach that again before I reach 50, and start over.

Not much of an exciting update this time, I know. Going to enjoy the quiet a little more before people start arriving back home. Wow, how sweet this sounds.
