So much to do … so little time to do it.  Seems like I no sooner come off the peak workload of our Company Plan – although, I am still cleaning up a number of Plan items – that I am quickly gearing up in other areas.  The work is relentless.  At times, I think [...]

Wow, what a month !! I am very glad that August is over with.  You would think that after all these years I would be prepared for putting together a company plan, but no matter how much experience you have – it is just plain painful.  Nevertheless, I survived and did get a fair amount [...]

RE Work:   Ahhh … so much for the “home stretch” … went into Monday in very good shape and it was a good thing.  As we were milling around in the Planning database the system was incredibly slow … my guess is it was everybody who was late in entering data – trying to cram [...]

I’m back.  Had to pause for a few days on blogging.  First, there is the heavy workload associated with the Company Plan.  Second, I was housesitting and didn’t have my personal laptop with me.
And so, we go into the final home stretch on the Plan.  I have a number of ”must do” things this morning …. but for [...]

… what another incredibly long day.  Seems I can hardly keep up with things.  Sorry about the absence of a blog yesterday – I took advantage of the minutes and stole some extra sleep.  As for today – I forced myself up so that I could write for a few minutes and advise all that [...]

Ah, and so, I start another work week – albiet on a Tuesday … after a three day weekend (sort of).  In spite of working the entire weekend, I feel incredibly and surprisingly somewhat refreshed today.  I guess my tacit decision yesterday paid off.  I started work at 6am and pushed very hard until 2pm.  [...]

Today is Indonesia’s Independence Day – congratulations.  Sadly, I will be working most of the day …. and have worked all weekend.
 I did manage to take a few hours off and join Decy at a major publicity event for her salon.  She had a big tent set up and a competition for kids in “traditional [...]

There are only 24 hours in the day … thus, when I get to a crunch time like where I am now … I look for every opportunity to redeem time.  It could be sleeping in the car, reduced blogging, deferring non-critical activities.  I do whatever it takes so that I can keep going.
Really nothing [...]

Not much news to write about today – right now and until around 24 August the days will be pretty much cookie cutter days of working, eating, sleeping. Fun, rest, relaxation will come in September.
One key notable is that Chely has safely arrived in Chicago and is awaiting her connection to Nashville.  She’s a bit [...]

Even though Chely had a very long summer break (more than three months) and spent it all here with us in Indonesia, it is hard to believe that summer is over.  Yesterday, Chely left for the US … and Thasya started back in school.  The house will be relatively quiet again – clearly more quiet [...]
