Life can keep you busy.

As I sit here in Columbus Ohio, reading on the org and getting ready for bed. I look back over the last couple of months in my life. Things have been busy, lost some friends this year and I never see these things coming, but who does?
I have changed jobs at my work, no longer working in Engineering, but now I have become a project manager in charge of rolling out a new safety program for the state of OK. Which is the reason for my trip to Columbus. I will be training all week for the new program to bring home and train my entire company. All eyes are on me, its the kind of thing that can make or break a career. This has its own set of challenges and stresses that come with the job.
Juli and I have sold our house and we are moving up to a larger house in a nicer neighborhood. Moving is stressful, not to mention the expense, but now is the time, Juli and I both have our heart and soul in this move, it feels right. This week while I am gone, Juli is home packing the house, we move next week, thank you honey for taking this on. I feel guilty I am not there to help you.
After we move, the following week we have to pack and get ready to make the trip to the Bash. I am excited, Juli is excited. But there will be folks gone that I will miss. With Kevin's passing, I am saddened that I will not get to speak to him, I miss him even though I have only met him once. Shawn is deployed and will not be able to make it this year. I miss you too Sir. Thank you for all of the work you put into my bike and and getting Juli's bike back on the road after her spill. Shawns boys were an inspiration to me because at the time of last years bash, I was fighting tooth and nail to get more time with my own boys. Family time is special and I dont anyone to miss out on the joys of being a parent.
I lost 3 co-workers this year to untimely deaths, one was a friend, two were aquaitances, its still weighs on the mind.
I write this not because I want to have a pity party, far from it, I am blessed, and I know that. I have a great family and wonderful children. I have a good career that provides for us. However, I get caught up in the day to day events and it is easy to slip into a bad mood or forget that there are others out there that do indeed have serious problems and issues.
I am so very thankful for all the friends I have made on this board, and I am thankful for the extended family we call the oRg.
I felt the need to put my thoughts out and read them out loud. I am wierd like that sometimes.
Thank you my friend, God bless you.
