What the H . . . happened?

OMG it's been waaaay too long since I last posted. What with work, another TNT program, and the wonderful weather I've not had time to sit and ponder the vaguaries of life . . .
Still enjoying it here, riding our bikes and walking the dogs. Work has been crazy lately, but it looks like I'll be settling in for a relatively relaxed holiday season, with just some part time stuff going on at a couple of clients. Helen's been real busy with listings and stuff, but the real estate market has certainly taken a turn.
I've bitten the bullet and registered to attend Lotusphere (on my own dime) for the first time in 6 years. Can't wait!

Old Fart . . . .

So I turned 40 last week, and we had a party on Saturday. Fun! Merciless teasing from friends, but much Single Malt was received, so I did OK in the end :-) Back to reality now and life isn't much different.

Hot, hot, hot

I know I shouldn't complain, but it is getting too hot for comfort around here now. We've been hitting the high 80s and the normal onshore breeze has been sadly absent - most of the time it's blowing up from Mexico so it's not even that cool. I got all the electrical work done over the weekend so we now have a ceiling fan in the family room. Hopefully that'll help reduce the bill as we'll not be running the AC as much. And the tub is just at the right temperature (I reckon it's been less expensive to run as the ambient temperature is higher).
Planning (hah!) has started for my 40th birthday party on Saturday - I just sent out an evite to about 50 of our friends today so we'll just have to see how busy peeps are and if they can make the party of the year!

Hello? Anybody there?

I'm probably typing this for my own benefit . . . . . . back from a trip to Scotland to see family, and now I'm back home in the heat getting ready for another bike program. I've been busy(ish) getting yard work out of the way before my Saturdays are taken up with riding for the team again. Two new trees planted at the weekend, and I've made my first of two visits to the chiropractor as a result :-( We're getting a new ceiling fan in the family room on Saturday so we don't have to run the AC as often (I'm dreading the electricity bill) and we might even get the final permit for the Hot Tub.
Back to work, and loving it. I almost typed that with a straight face!
