Oh man... What to tell? I guess this is going to be a hodge-podge of life's recent kick in the nadds...

Well, like I predicted, I am missing my foster, though the rest of the family is slightly relieved she's gone. We are slowly returning to a "normal" life. Still the house seems a bit more empty than normal. The teen attitude from both of my kids are now kicking into high gear... so life marches on.

Since we got news of our foster leaving, I've had several different illnesses, one right after another. The good news is I am over all of them. The bad news, the residual coughing due to my asthma is really getting old (a persistent cough that's lasted a week now). My kids are teasing me about a 4 pack a-day habit (funny because I have never touched a tobacco product in my life. Though it's really cool to finally have a deep raspy voice that would put Barry White to shame. The last couple of podcasts has my new voice. The worst part is how much my chest and diaphragm aches from the constant coughing.

Finally, work has really slowed down to 2009 levels. Construction is really falling behind in the Mountain West, at least in the Southern Utah / Southern Nevada arena. So if anyone needs a custom home designed, let me know... I am very good.

Well that's about it, as I need to start dinner for the fam.
