Old Man Morgan

Decy, Chely and Nathaysa returned from Bali Tuesday night … after spending a week there.  I saw Decy when I got home (approx 1030pm) but not Chely norNathasya.  Seems they had a good time … and some important girl bonding time – I can appreciate that, because I know the feeling when the boys and [...]

Logged on to Old Man Morgan and started to create a post.  Didn’t realize it had been nearly a week since my last blog.  The days are a blur and I can’t stay up to date on anything, not my sleep, not my reading, not my blogging, not my exercising.  Nothing.  Argh.  The work days [...]

The last few days has been another blur of events – some good, some not so good.
First and foremost, as most of the folks that read this blog know, my youngest son Paul William Morgan got married on Saturday, 10 July 2010.  His beautiful bride is Courtney Strawser – an intelligent, wonderful, kind, affectionate, and friendly [...]

If I don’t blog, some folks think something is wrong.  If I do blog, but have nothing to say, then folks will be bored with the blog and won’t read it ever.  Its a careful balance.  First, all is fine in Whoville.  I have been working grueling hours this week (its that time of year [...]

Chely arrived home from college today.   She had quite the trip:  Cleveland (TN) to Chattanooga by car, then flying Chattanooga to Charolette to Houston to Moscow to Singapore to Jakarta to home.  Everything seemed to go pretty well with no delays and no lost luggage kind of issues.  While in Moscow Chely’s connection was pretty [...]

Yep.  It came.  It went. It was uneventful.  That’s the way it is in Indonesia, married to an Indonesian wife, in the middle of the planning cycle.  About the closest thing there was to an outdoor bar-b-que was a glass of wine on our patio with Decy.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m really not complaining.  [...]

This is a short blog.  The work hours are incredible right now – leaving nothing for personal time, much less adequate sleep.  Not only am I dozing off at my desk, but standing up isn’t helping very much – yesterday, I dozed off while standing.  I’m trying to redeem whatever time I can, which means [...]

Yesterday at work I had a few minutes – and I mean only a few – so I thought I would link in to my company’s twitter posts.  I thought it would be a relatively straightforward thing but I quickly learned that I couldn’t get to our site easily unless I had a twitter account.  [...]

Didn’t really intend the title of this blog to be negative.  In fact, overall, I had a pretty good weekend.  I guess the “blues” part of it is associated with getting up at 315am and going to work.  Would have loved to haved stayed in bed and snuggled up closer to Decy.  Regrettably we had [...]

Oh Thanks God it is Friday.  What another whirlwind week this has been.  Overall, pretty good, but still hectic.  I have not yet had to press through a “monstor week” which is 90-100 hours – but it is probably coming.  Typically I get 2 or 3 of those during the planning cycle.  However, my weeks [...]
