Break time

Hello everyone

I’ve been emailing all of you so often since I started my extended leave at Dyeland that I forgot about this blog LJA set up for me. I only have 10 minutes on my break (I’m working at a grocery store, stocking shelves) so I’ll try to do a recap for those of you who aren’t on the Dyeland list but do read this blog.

I’m happy to report Lady Beth’s memory was fully restored. We’re all very grateful for that. I’m reluctant to report that those of us in Dyeland went through a difficult time during the early part of November. The good part is I learned how to handle upsetting assignments better. I guess I just saw myself in this last assignment too much. My eternal thanks to all the Dyelanders and friends that helped me through.

Another happy event is Adam and I are no longer the only angels regularly in Dyeland. Princess Yva’s guardian Nigel has taken up residence with us. He’s a great guy.

Unfortunately I need to get back to work now. I’ll do everything I can to keep in touch with my friends in Dyeland. I’m thinking of you all.

Your friend,

Andrew

Checking in

Hello everyone.

Lady JenniAnn gave me a heads up that new visitors may be stopping by this page.  I figured I should post something since I haven’t in weeks.

Welcome new visitors!  0:-)  You may be wondering what an angel of death is doing with a blog.  JenniAnn thought it was a good idea and I figured I’d give it a try.  I just wish I could find the time to write here more often.

I guess I should write about what’s going on with me.  I had a lengthy assignment in Vegas.  At least is seemed lengthy.  Adam would have spent the assignment in a never-ending cringe based on how he reacted to one of Monica’s strapless dresses.  Let’s just say my assignment had an interest in entertainment of a variety that I do not.  Strapless dresses were the least of the concerns. 

I was grateful to finish that.  After wrapping that up I returned to Dyeland.  Unfortunately, our Lady Beth has gotten amnesia but I’m confident she’ll recover soon.  I hope and pray she does.  

Well, I promised Adam I’d check on his turkeys while he was on assignment so I better go do that.  I don’t want Alexander to tattle on me if I don’t.  0;-)

Your friend,

Andrew

Thank you

Hello everyone.

Thank you to everyone who wished me happy birthday Wednesday. It really was a happy one and my Dyeland friends had a big hand in making it so. 0:-)

Lady Beth I did read your comments. Rest assured I never ended up in a bed and breakfast. With or with out LJA. That was just her way of trying to get people to participate in JABB 200 (which was a great read by the way). As for the white shirt, I’m afraid I’ll have to keep my source a secret for their protection.

To everyone else I hope you have a great weekend. May be I’ll be able to sneak away for an hour or two and visit Dyeland.

Your friend,

Andrew

Great chat

Hello everyone.

I don’t have much time but I just wanted to let Jarrod, JenniAnn, and OzSez know that I had a great time in the chat last night. I hope next time more of you can join us and that I’ll be able to attend again.

Your friend,

Andrew

Please help Lady JenniAnn

Hello everyone.

Before I get to my reason for posting on this, the last day of my current assignment, I wanted to let Lady Beth know that I’m still trying to figure out how to give you an idea of what I look like with a beard.  I also am supposed to tell you I’m wearing a white shirt.  A little bird told me you would want to know that.

Now, if anyone is reading this could you please email Lady JenniAnn with a list of things you learned from JABB.  If she doesn’t get 200 items (she currently has 76) she’s threatening to unsubscribe me from the Dyeland email list.  I think she’s joking but I’m not positive.  Helping her would be appreciated.

I hope to see everyone in Dyeland tomorrow.  But I can’t promise anything at this time.

Your friend,

Andrew

Greetings from Yellowstone

I’m currently on assignment in Yellowstone National Park. It’s really amazing here. I’ve not been here for a few decades.

My assignment is a park ranger so I’ve been spending a lot of time with him and his fellow rangers. Great bunch of people.

I’m thinking of growing a beard. What do you ladies think?

And Lady Beth: If my blog does prevent a recurrence of something that happened a couple months ago I will be one happy angel. 0:-)

Where do the children play?

Lately I’ve been working at a childcare facility. My assignment worked here with me and passed away last night. I stayed behind to help counsel the kids over the loss. I decided it would be a nice break for them to go for a walk. So we all went to the local park.

It was not one of my better ideas. When we got there I realized that over the night someone or some people had “tagged” a lot of the equipment. So then I got to explain what “Poke Smot!” meant to little kids. And that was the most benign message.

It just made me sad. At what point does a playground stop being a place to have fun and start being a target for defacement? I felt bad for the kids in my care but also the people who did that and were once children. What happened to those children?

Well, my break is nearly over. I need to get back to the kids. I get to read “Stellaluna.” 🙂

One last thing, thanks for the edits LJA. I like this much better now.

Your friend,

Andrew

Te-ee-ss-ss

Whining is hard to do on a blog. From my About Andrew page:

“Interests: Telling people about God, wearing leather and a toolbelt, eating treats the amazingly talented and utterly enchanting girl who runs my fan club makes for me

Marital Status: A *forever* single heartbreaker but very, very sweet”

Obviously that is Lady JenniAnn’s (the talented and utterly enchanting) doing. It makes it sound like I wear leather all the time! Like pants. And I do not!

I really hope I’m not a heartbreaker either.

My blog… I guess

Hello.

JenniAnn thought it would be a good idea if I got a blog.  To prevent people from worrying about me when I was on assignment.  I said sure if she’d set it up.  I love computers but I never did get into blogging.  I prefer my own leatherbound journals.  I’ve kept them for… a very long time.

Now I think perhaps I should have done it myself.  Does it need to be so pink, LJA?  I feel like a teenage girl.  Not that there’s anything wrong with teenage girls.  I’m just not one of them.   Thank you though.  It is a good idea.

I need to go now.  Tess is giving me the Look.  I don’t think she approves of blogs.

Your friend,

Andrew
