Home, and then off again!

I’m off in the morning, yet again! This time I’m flying to NYC for a few days, a couple of days enjoying the city, visiting with some family and old friends, and then a couple of days at a conference for work.

For those of you scoring at home, yes we just got back from the latest trip Sunday, a short weekender with the wife’s family, which came 3 days after we got back from vacation, which was about a week and a half after I got back from SF, again for work. Throw in a 12 hour work day this week, doing onsite support for an event, as opposed to being in the office, and it’s been a wild ride!

It’s been fun, and exciting, but I do believe that after this trip, I will be very, very happy to have some routine in my life again! I don’t really anticipate having that routine again until maybe Thanksgiving. I already know I’m going to come back to the office with piles of work to do, but I’m hoping that a quiet, 4 day, weekend, will be just the thing.

Of course, by then, I might wind up with even that being busy at the rate things have been going. I kinda hope not. As much as I condone shaking up the routine a little from time to time, and seeking out new experiences when you can, it’s also nice to feel the comfort of your normal life too. 🙂

  • Still Here, 2020 Edition

    Recently, a friend on Facebook decided to ask us all to share one thing that happened this year that was a positive, to try and collect any and all good news in one place. It was a good idea, and as I thought about how I would respond to something like that, I thought of some of the good things that have happened this year. I’ve had some pretty nice successes at work. I’ve connected on a deeper level with my wife, and managed to stay connected to a close group of friends and family. Those were good things, but at the end of it all, I kept coming back to something I talked about at the end of 2019 on the Find Your Voice Podcast, and then again on this very blog on January 1 of 2020.
