Tomorrow, the kids go back to school. It is one of those times of the year (like New Year’s) where you can wipe the artificial slate clean and make some resolutions that you can try and keep. The past year and a half has been both good and bad and I am aiming to focus on Q4 of this year and make sure it is all good. I have a long list of “to-do’s” that need to get accomplished and I am going to use the start of the kids venture into their new classrooms as my start as well.
On the work front, there is a lot to accomplish. Between the product I have been developing and day to day client work my plate is more than full. One very cool project I am currently working on with one client is nearing completion for the first phase. All of the teeth of this machine are now coming together and it is a matter of making sure things are lubed up enough to keep the friction to a minimum. There are a number of technical challenges to overcome, but there are some really good people working on this and I am confident that the business will be satisfied in the end.
On the home front the big goal for Q4 is losing some significant lbs. With all the stress, travel, etc.. of the past 12-15 months I have not been doing my body good. Going to have one last hurrah this labor day weekend and then start September off with a Master Cleanse. I guess I’ll lose some weight with this thing; but I am more interested in trying to flush my system of everything bad and nasty so I can then continue on with moderating the nastiness I put into my body. I refuse to give up the things I like as you never know when your time is up and I’m not going to forgoe a spur of the moment chili-cheese dog only to get hit by a bus crossing the street moments later. No..my goal is to moderate these pleasures so that I can be sure to enjoy them as special occasions. I am planning on blogging in detail regarding my plunge into the cleanse so stay tuned.
Club championship is this weekend…going to try and qualify on Friday. They changed things up this year so we’ll have to see if I can outplay my handicap and put the hurt on some unsuspecting victims.
Have not played poker in what seems like ages. I have been so busy that my level of concentration is just not there. I am looking forward to getting back to playing and will have a whole different attitude and outlook at the table when I return. More on that later.
