What The Writers of Majeki Have Been Up To

We have been very busy. On September 17 we left on an emergency trip to visit my Grandparents, since Grandpa wasn't doing well. The next week he died. Later that week there was visitation and the funeral. We enjoyed seeing lots of Dad's relatives.

Je was going to be starting a new job at an OB-Gyn soon after we came back home, which she did. But after the first day she realized she could not work there due to a moral issue. Since then she has been busy at home and at her job she's had for 2 years.

Ki has been busy with trying to do school in the midst of a busy life.



Here is a picture of us after our Grandpa's visitation. We stay at a Bed and Breakfast when we visit our Grandparents.

Our Wonderful Black & White TV has about Died


In August, my family and I watched much of the Olympics on our b&w TV. Originally, Daddy got the TV before entering college. Sadly the TV's on and off switch quit working many, many years ago; so we just used the plug to turn it on and off. It was the only working TV we had until I was 10 years old. Countless programs and shows have been watched on it. Since it is small and portable, we used it for watching programs while doing dishes and sometimes eating a meal. One of the consequences of having an older TV was sometimes the best way to receive a good picture was putting a foot on the antenna or doing some other interesting thing. The Beijing Olympics weren't shown on a channel our color TV could pick up, but our b&w, which can pick up countless channels, could. After about 10 days of happy watching of the Olympics, half the screen went blank. At least the sound is still clear. It's not worth watching anything on the b&w anymore.

Thank you b&w for the memories. We'll miss you!
