Its time

for more photos. This is a sampling of what I've been up to this past summer. Tami, I tried to email some photos, but they came back saying your new email address wasn't valid. Please send it to me again, I must have screwed it up.

Today I woke up

and I was 40 yrs old. So what! To me 40 is not that bad at all. I have lived about half my life now and it has been good. I still have another 40 yrs or more to make it even better.

I am proud of what I have accomplished, and look forward to learning much much more. When I think about how much I thought I knew 10 yrs ago and how much more I have learned since then, I can't help but look forward. I know I can't possibly imagine what lessons I will have learned by the time I wake up 50, only because I had no idea what lessons I was going to learn by the time I was 40.

I like to think "But I am much smarter now, so I can imagine what I will learn by looking at what I have learned, and I am cocky enough to let myself think that some days, BUT, I am also smart enough now (from lessons learned) to know that isn't true.

Have I confused you yet? It's like that at 40.

My god!

How do you guys do it? Everyday I think about posting. Everyday I don't seem to find the time. I guess its just not very high up on my priority list.

Life is good.

I love my new job. It is what I was meant to be doing. It is the perfect fit for me. They want me to do my job exactly the way I have been saying for years customer service/sales jobs should be done. They actually want me to serve my clients best interests. Even if it doesn't make any money for the company. I know, a lot of companies I have worked for say the same thing, but then do the opposite. They don't actually practice what they preach. These guys do.

I am probably getting into dangerous ground blogging about this, but I feel very passionate about it. I can't believe I am being paid to do this.

On another note, we are getting cable back on Monday, so the computer will be much more available to me and my blogging whims. Maybe I will be able to start posting with some kind of regularity.

Life is good.

Wow, what a month.
