And it looks to be a year of incredible fireworks.   My friends, it has been a while,  because I have been busy researching, spending time with family, and, of course, holding down a normal job.

Health issues with my family and my children needing some adult guidance on their personal issues have made it very challenging.  Having steadfast beliefs and learning from great people over the years around me has helped me to deal with these challenges successfully.  It would appear the latest round is now behind me.

Work has been busy and I seem to have gotten back into my groove again, thirsting for more challenges and looking to finally reap the rewards.   It always helps when those who are younger in your field admire you and realize just how much more “cool” you are for knowing so much.  At least, I have them fooled.

I will be writing a bunch more and trying to improve my skills.  Rule 5 girls will return again – even my wife is helping, although she rolled her eyes when I first started this blog.  She is blessing herself, one for which I am forever grateful to God.

The war against liberals still rages. I have returned from my leave.  Now it’s time to push this campaign forward.
