Waking Up...

... is so very hard to do, especially when my body knows I am about to go running. I have always avoided running, if at all possible.

DW and I have started the Zen Labs C25K self-starter running program. We have being talking for a long time about taking action to get moving and be more fit. So there ya go.

My body says, "No."

Noise

... Can't stand it. It seems like, no matter where I am, I am surrounded by noise. Idiot people jabbering about nonsense on cell phones. Seriously. Is your dog so important you absolutely have to talk about it on the phone during lunch in a restaurant? Do your friends or colleagues understand when you interject your personal business into their lunch time?

Stuff

Flew Friday. Awesome day. Flew Piper Arrow 28R from 1A0 (Dallas Bay) to KVLL (Oakland/Troy) in Michigan. Of course I couldn't land there due to unsafe gear light, but that was another (uneventful) story. Of course I did get to buzz the tower (legally) so the controller could check my gear, which turned out to be ok.

I flew myself and 2 colleagues (who had never flown before in a small plane) to do a buy-off of a part we needed for work. We took off at 3:30 AM, arrived at 8:00 AM (even after the gear issue). Stopped for breakfast, went to the buy-off, had lunch, and then flew home. How much cooler does having one's pilot's license get?

Started a new countdown for vacation. I believe I need it more this year than ever. The new job is awesome, but it is stressful. The beach always scrubs away my stress.

New Beginnings

I know that everyone is posting about "New Beginnings" for the "New Year." So at the risk of being cliche, I'm doing it anyway. It's been forever since I posted on my blog (again). It is, however, a brand new day and a brand new year. I resolve to post my brains out this year (and like it). ;)

Lots of things are new for the new year and I'm looking forward to exciting things: a new home, leadership in Civil Air Patrol, and cool school stuff with the kids are among the many exciting things that are popping this very week to kick off the new year. Flying and music are also on the horizon... SWEET.

So let's rock the new year with all sorts of possibilities!
