Gearing Up For a New Year

Well 2003 has been an interesting year. I've had no less than three jobs and uprooted the family and planted the crew in Central Alberta. 2004 is looking good so far - I start a good paying position on the 2nd - and the prospect of coming up with a solution to 'dial-up hell' looks promising. It's going to be 'Wireless' but I haven't figured out if I'm going to do it myself or if I work with some others and make it a 'group' effort.

These few days between Christmas and New Years are a bit of a pain as it's just about impossible to get anything accomplished because those in charge tend to disappear until after the New Year. It's always a relief when the new calendar gets hung - like a fresh start or something. The first thing you have to remember is to put the correct date on your rent cheque. After that you just sit back and wait for the Christmas bills to roll in.

The part I like about New Years is that it sort of feels like winter is half over. By March though you know that January First being 'Mid-Winter' was a tad optimistic. At least the days start getting longer and I always look at that as a good sign.

Anyhow..., I'm going to cut this one a bit short as I would like to do a decent 'Blog Entry' for January First and that's going to take a bit of thought.

Check back regularly, no telling what little nugget of gnarled knowledge or whimsical wisdom you're going to unearth here but I will guarantee it won't be a 'horse nugget'.

Hasta Luego y Un Prospero Año Nuevo
