You have a lovely family"

"Mark, I don't remember having met you but the 16th corps year was a blur for me. They kept me busy in the green room and working. I felt like I worked so much that year that I didn't really get too much time to socialize. I ended up finishing with…"

About Me

I did finally finish the corps, but with the 17th corps, graduating with my brother who is still with the Way and still Way Corps in the eyes of the organization. I started college with the intention of studying Nuclear Engineering. Accelerated Transmutation of Waste was my interest. Maybe I will blog a little about that later. But I knew I would eventually have to transfer to K-State and working full time with children established in schools I realized I couldn't uproot them or my work for my education and decided that being a Math and Physics teacher in the high school would suffice. It would give me more time with my kids, and allow me to venture into the areas I love to ponder. I have worked as a programmer/analyst for the last 17+ years. All I can say about that is this is a profession God gave to me. I loved it from day one but it is demanding and you can never master the field as it is constantly changing. Right now I have completed the analysis and design on a bankruptcy project and am almost completed with the first phase of the data structure, core processing, and the interface. I am getting to use Java with this very cool plugin called the Spring Framework which were new to me when I began, but now my boss thinks I am truly a geek since I love what I do so much. He may be right. Last June I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I am fully able and I know God won't allow me to be tempted above that which I can stand. So as my late counselor would say, I am an optimist,,,still. You can still see that shit eating grin on my face. It will never fail, because God has never let me down. Today I have 3 lovely children Sara 15, who is one of the most talented kids I have seen. She has had agents and casting directors in LA show interest in her singing and acting talent (but the child can dance too.) We didn't move to LA because she has friends here but she will be heading out there in 2 and a 1/ 2 years to attend college. Scotty my 10 year old is a brilliant kid. If it interests him he will learn all he can about it. He is a wealth of knowledge and definitely a self study. He is living proof that kids with ADHD can excell. He is also a terrific character actor already at 10, and plays the trumpet. His goal is also to be an actor but he is considering meteorology, or zoology as his backup plan. Bethany is my 8 year old. She's my sweetheart. Always giving always sharing. She has been singing and acting too (the apples didn't fall far from the tree.) She shows tremendous potential especially in the singing category and because she is more dedicated to practice then Sara ever was I believe she will someday surpass Sara. Her goal is to be a Rock Star. They are wonderful kids and many times what keeps me going.

Well, hey bud. How are you? Just getting ready for bed and saw your message. Thanks. Hey, my wife and I celebrated our 12th Anniversary yesterday. It's amazing how time flies. Anyway, kids are well. How about your family? Take care, Bud.

Jon Touchstone February 16, 2008 at 3:45pm

All right!!! It's a deal. We'll figure out all the details.
Yeah, I'm wrapped around her little finger. She just lies there and looks at me. It just melts my lil' ole heart.
Jon Touchstone February 16, 2008 at 3:28pm

Crap. Well, I just was telling you that Valentines went all right, though my cooking left a bit to be desired. Also, I'm going to drag you kicking and screaming down here to sunny Florida whether you like it or not, though I get the feeling you won't be kicking or screaming too much.
And I said, Love you, Bud!

Ooops. Not sure if you got my last post. I deleted it by accident.
Vance Gorayeb February 16, 2008 at 11:38am

Hey Holly, Thanks for saying hello and sometimes I even find it hard to believe I have kids now. Your munchkins definitely take after their lovely mom and look like great kids too. So how are your brothers, your mom and dad?

So how do you like living in Kansas? I was living in Overland Park about five of years ago before heading east.
Donna DeGrandchamp February 5, 2008 at 4:10am

I was in college at Trenton State (now the State College of New Jersey), with Susan Pittenger and Colleen Maloney Seace. I was 18 and I stayed in Trenton for 4 years until I went in the Corps. Do I know you? Have we met, 'cause you look really young. Was your maiden name Bodolosky by any chance.
Jon Touchstone January 28, 2008 at 8:01am

OH, what a thrill to hear from you. You were without a doubt one of my very favorite people in the Corps!!! How are you? I read your bio ... seems we're in the same type of work. You have a beautiful family too.

Do you remember the thesaurus I gave you back when you were talking about being a writer?

I bumped into Sharon Edwards, who, as it turns out, lives a mere 45 minutes from me, and she told me about this site. I've been completely out of the loop for so many years ... missing so many friends.

I want to know more about your MS. Let me know any specifics things I can pray for.

Let's stay in touch. I'll send you my phone number via email.
