2012 update

I always tell myself I am going to keep this up to date better after this post... and I don't :-(  Oh well... below is my 6 month update

I have been having dinner occasionally with a couple of old friends and find it very rewarding and relaxing.  All in all through life I think relationships are probably the most valuable thing we have.

I have yet another job!  I have been in my latest for only 6 months but we have achieved the primary objective of turning things around; resolving issues and correcting customer satisfaction.  I have been working with another group of extremely talented people which I find to be a real blessing.

I am literally 'going home' in my new job... the same building I started in over 20 years ago.  It is quite refreshing and I am looking forward to the challenges.  The really cool thing is that it is a promotion that includes a raise and an increase in annual bonus!  More money is always helpful.

We have been going out to the Hoot Owl Lodge fairly regularly.  It is a great source of distraction from the hustle and bustle of life during the week.  The kids are going to join us for a weekend out there in early August, which I am really looking forward to.

Oh yeah... health :-)
I have confirmed that after 1 year I am still Hep C free!  I didn't really expect that the way life has been going the last several years.  I am also cancer free and my heart issues seem to be manageable... however my herniated disk is really giving me a lot of pain.  I will get through it though...

We are going on vacation Monday; we are going to St. Lucia which is kind of a bucket list thing for me :-)

Hej!

I changed jobs - no more international travel and very little travel at all! I am really enjoying the change. I work with all the people that grew up in this industry with me as well as others of course.
Sara got married to Philip, it was a very nice wedding. I am doing pretty well... I have to start running again soon and my hip is killin' me!

until next time :-)
