Went camping (yes again) fri-sat. Went bouldering at Enchanted Rock State Park. I haven't been climbing in years. I did ok, but boy was I sore and scraped. But it felt good to feel so worn out. I also managed to actually walk all the way to the top of the rock. I didnt have the stamina for that last year.

Well, this past weekend, I went to the Old Settler's Blugrass Festival... Fri thru Sun... lotsa great music (this ain't your grandpappy's bluegrass), fun camping with friends, and a good time was had by all. I think I'm gonna do this festival again next year.

Well, lets see.... Our parent company in France was declared insolvent yesterday( bancrupt, out of business) so basically I have no idea if I worked for anyone today... I hope I will get a 'next' paycheck.

but.. one day at a time... this weekend I am woring at the dropzone doing tandem jumps. The weather is great for it, finally.

Well, last night was BORING!. I left work on time for a change, and had nothing to do all evening..

Tonight I am meeting with sme people from a social club I belong to, for dinner and then to the theater for a play entitled "Blur".

Well I have been in TX now 1.5 yrs, and this past weekend I finally had visitors. 5 of my really good friends from San Diego came out for the weekend. We ate and drank and ate and drank, listened to live music, ate, drank, took a tour, ate, drank. We slept a bit and then they left. I miss them so much ( Read more... )

Well my first LJ friend littlesunshine has convinced me, after much arm twisting, to go to the TX bash. She is also introducing to new people here in LJ.

Thanks Nikky, and HI to all my new friends!!!

I am still here, slackin' as usual! Its been a few months since my last post. Not too much is new in the big scheme of things. Short term, I have dropped 20 lbs. I would like it to be more, before I go to Steamboat Springs, Colorado next month for snow boarding! I have been trying to fly (airplanes) too, but every time I schedule, the weather ends ( Read more... )

I have been slackin' writing in here. I have been putting in the long hours at work, so I cant wait til the damn project is done. When it is over (another month?) I will have the BIG decision as to whether to stay in Austin or move (again, sigh). I like the town well enough, but my social life is sorely lacking. Am I too picky? I dont think so, but ( Read more... )

Got a call at 6am, a friend wanting to have breakfast... She is Bi-Polar / Manic-Depressive, so I dont chastise her for calling that early. Normally I am up at that hour, but I didnt get to bed, let alone sleep, til almost 230am ( Read more... )

Well, its another day. Work is still a bit slow, but the pace is picking up a bit. Mom got another hip replacement yesterday and is already "walking" on it. Dad is eating out while mom's not home. Normally he cooks, but mom doesnt let him eat the things he likes. All I know is he always ate what he liked, mom watched her diet. Dad is 84 and in ( Read more... )
