Final posting

Well... this is my final posting for BITE 5200. I had a good time with this course. However life goes on! I am traveling now as I am in Augusta Georgia. I resigned from IBM three weeks ago and started my new career as a contractor. I guess I like it however I do miss my family. I hooked up some video conferencing software on both my laptop and my wife's laptop. It's free software from Logitech called VID. I like it because it is very simple to set up.

Last nite, we video conferenced around 7ish. Michael seemed that he was in a good mood. He looked really active. Jeannette looked good too however I sensed that she was pretty tired. She tries to put on a good show but unfortunately I can see through it.

This next week I hope to graduate. I have worked extra hours this week to compensate for next week. I need to discuss with my boss on how he wants to bill them.

Anyways.. I'm done for this week updating this blog! I wish everyone the best of luck!

This week at Kindermusik - work - life etc.

Michael had a good time at Kindermusik this week. He listened to the song Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes and can point to his head and his feet in the song. During the week, he started saying Thank You when we would give him Cheerios or a cookie. Once in a while he would say please if he wanted another one. We still have a lot of work to do!

Work went well. I am winding down at IBM and gearing up for my job as a contractor. I still have to buy some office supplies however I'm about 90% done. I will be away from home multiple weeks at a time. My wife isn't too happy about that but she understands that I'm doing this for her and Michael.

Random stuff this week. I was watching the news and they brought up the subject of San Francisco City Council approving "Meatless Mondays". The lady who was the chairperson of the group for this was being interviewed. I think it was by FoxNews or CNN. Anyways.. talk about a nut case! She wants everyone to become vegetarians because she wants to save the environment. The news person even stated that they recently noted that the studies about methane emissions and cattle were inaccurate and the data used was not correct. Watch out people! Nut jobs like these people will take your rights away in a heart beat! Hmmm... Pelosi represents San Francisco. Could there be a connection?

OK... I'm off my soapbox now. I hope everyone has a great week and starts to enjoy this spring!
