So where have I been…
So you may ask why haven’t you posted in so long well… Here is some of the things I have been up to since I last posted:
1. Took a trip to Salem, MA. Saw some cool stuff enjoyed the ocean got sun burned, collect stuff from the coast and Victoria framed to remember our trip.
2. Had Dennis and family come to visit.
3. Took a trip to Charlottesville, VA to see UVA stomp on the Pirates of East Carolina. The season started with such promise and then they lost 3 in a row. As a side note the UVA touchdown song gets really annoying real quick. They need a quick cannon fire and be done with it.
4. Took a trip to Greenville, NC to see East Carolina kick some butt. Go Pirates!!! We did have a quick evacation from the hotel which gave so additional excitement.
5. Took a trip to Crownsville, MD to attend the one the only Maryland Ren Fest. Need I say more!
6. Took a trip to Greenville, OH to see the family at Thanksgiving. Ended up being sick for half the trip and made Black Friday shopping more difficult than normal. Beside the sickness the trip was great!
7. Took a trip to Roanoke Rapids, NC to Victoria’s family for Christmas. We got there on the eve and had a great weekend. 8. News Year Eve, Victoria and I enjoyed working through a box of tissues watching the ball drop. A cold attacked us earlier in the week and we weren’t feeling up for doing anything.
9. Took a trip to New York, NY for my 30th b-day. We enjoyed New York on possibly the coldest days of the year. Besides the bitter cold we headed to Little Italy for a fabulous dinner.
10. Took a trip to Ikea while it may not seem glamorous, it has cause much work since. I picked up some new lights and installed them under cabinets. I replaced the buzzing fluorescent bulb light that was original with the house. I took me two days to do it but I was worth it. We also picked up some new book cases which was inspired by the office being painted.
So now after going through some of my highlights of the past couple of months, I don’t feel as bad. The work week has been tough. I didn’t realize how much stress the extra couple miles would add. I feel lucky if I can cook a whole meal for dinner. Winter also has something to do with it too. Going to work in the dark and getting home in the dark, makes it difficult to get motivated to do anything. So there it is that’s where I’ve been for the past couple of months. Hopefully 2009 might give me some more home time but only time will tell.
