It's been some time since I posted to this blog. I find after a long day at work I lose my enthusiasm to get on the net. What do many of you do to keep motivated? Summers been busy in my neck of the woods. We had a wedding to celebrate, several birthdays, swim parties, and several short trips. I have to admit, I love being busy and I'm blessed to spend a lot of time with family and close friends. Sometimes being close means we don't have a free weekend, but I'd rather have that challenge than not see them. The kids are growing like weeds and time seems to fly by when it comes to spending time with them. As for work, well I have a few more years and I'm hoping the economy improves so I can make it to my goal date. These are nerve racking times for many. I guess that's why having family and friends close makes life so fun. Their love and support is what gets me through the hard days and makes the good days so much better.
