Sorry I haven’t written here for a while. There’s been a few things going on in life that have taken precedence.
My wife and I took a short vacation to celabrate being happily married for 20 years on May 3rd. We went to Prescott, AZ, which is out favorite get away place. We have a favorite B&B that we always stay at, The Prescott Pines Inn, but this time we stayed at the Hassayampa Hotel because they had free wireless and I wanted to stay close to work. We drove to Sedona, a few miles north, for a day. Shopping, dining, a Jacuzzi in the hotel room completed the trip. I bought my lovely wife a tourquise necklace made by our favorite jewelery makers, the Aldriches. Here’s a photo of us both with her wearing her new necklace.

Acording to my AdSense records, we had 111,467 page impresssions on the Monday after. Everyone was upset with how it ended and who didn’t win. The forum went wild with outraged viewers.
While that was going on, my wife got the stomach flu. She was writhing in pain in the middle of the night at one point. Spent the rest of the night in the bathroom. She started to feel better and I got the same thing. It felt like someone had beat me in my stomach. The worst part was the quality time in the bathroom. It felt like I had flaming monkeys coming out of my …
After I started to feel better, she relapsed, but not as badly. Each of these took a couple days. She started to feel better and I relapsed. I was about 3 days behind her. We both had tempratures and all of the same symptoms. I finally quit trying to keep up with work and just stayed in bed all day for two days. Now I feel a bit better. I think I’m going to live.
Back to talking about Project Management.
