Pictures From Seattle

A Note From The Road

Well we made it through the first day of the two day class without too many screw ups. It was a long hard day...we were still going over practice tapes at nine p.m.! It was a very tiring day but alot of fun. Today is the half-day session but I'm sure it will be a full one for Autumn (my co-facilitator) and me. I am hoping to take a short drive down the cost this afternoon to take some pictures though.

It's kinda funny but I'm alittle homesick...been doing so much traveling the past two months that I've had very few days off at home. Most of my scheduled days off have been spent either on the road coming or going. This time I won't be home 'till late Thursday and I have to be back in the office early Friday morning.

I'm seeing alot of interesting places and meeting some very nice people in my travels...I guess that's why I moved out here in the first place! I should be happy about that...
and you know what?....
I AM!

Posting from the West Coast

Im posting from the Oregon coast tonight. I'm in Seaside Oregon preparing to give a training seminar at our resort here. Very tired tonight...it was a five hour drive then another three or four hours setting up the room and going over last minute details with my co-facilitator. Nice little resort town here. I'm sure I'll have fun exploring during the next few days.

Time to get some sleep!

Anxious and Uneasy

Feeling very anxious and uneasy this morning. Tomorrow I leave for the coast for five days. It’s a business trip. I’m excited about it, but at the same time kind of nervous as well. I’m getting burned out with work as it is and these extra responsibilities aren’t helping. I haven’t had a vacation in over a year except for these business trips but they are sometimes more work than work is.

My home life is as usual so-so. No direction there. She likes to drift from one day to the next without any real plan. I on the other hand NEED a plan. Even if it’s just a pipe dream…I need something to guide me…to drive me.to excite me! I’m working on moving all of my stuff out here so maybe when that’s done I’ll feel better.

No I Didn't Die!

Sorry all for the long absence. Waaaaaaay too much had been going on to even think about posting. So much in fact that aside from my job I had gone into seclusion.

So... If anyone is still interested the big secret was I sold my house. Actually I pretty much gave it to my daughter and her husband. I just couldn't handle the stress and financial burden of owning property so far away. I feel much better about things now and letting go of the house has helped me let go of Kathy a little bit more.

I've been doing a lot of traveling for my job in the last two months as well. I'm a certified facilitator for a custumer care program my company purchased and have been doing classes at various resorts. It's alot of fun but a lot of work as well. I love it!

I'm still with my partner and we're doing OK. Sometimes you just have to accept things for what they are I guess.

Still don't have my own PC at home yet...that's probably the biggest reason I've been absent, but I'm planning on one soon.

Sorry this sounds so rushe, but I just wanted to quickly update everyone.

Will be posting on a regular basis from now on so I will be providing details and pictures.
