Well, for those of you who don't already know...we are in California.  I'm using my laptop and I have high speed wireless at the hotel..something not available out in the country where we live..I Like. 

Anyway.  This trip is replacing a trip meant to visit family out in TX.  Luckily, I have an uncle in CA so it makes it worthwhile too.  This trip is for our 14 yr. S-J.  Who is meeting with Avalon Artists Group an agency who wants to represent him.  They do TV,Movies, Commercials and Commercial Print.  So, he'll have plenty of work interviews in all the feilds to hopefully begin working and creating a  good portfolio.  Then we have another meeting with Archetype who is a management group.  Different from an agent..more invested and personal.  They will help also to groom him for 2-5 years depending on J's improvement in the business.  This whole thing is great for J, but not so great for us as a family.  It is/will change our lives at least for the next 4-5 yrs. till he's 18 or so.  Then, we might be able to return to normal life as a family.  My husband won't, most likely, get a transfer out here to LA.  He'll stay in KS while me and J and the three little ones (our newely adopted) go to LA.  The cost of living here is astronomical!!! I dont know why people want to or how they can live here.  To find a place to live that we can afford without selling out in KS is very disheartening...  My hope is to keep the farmstead in KS so we can visit every  few months or so while Lee's mom comes to stay with J.  She will be such a blessing in that way. 

So, many decisions and no quick and easy answers that's for sure.

Well, gotta go.  Time to get ready for our meetings.

In His service!!
