So Much Stuff
I normally try to have a more descriptive title of my blogs based on the topic, but there's just been too much going on lately to narrow it down. Since my last post about New York City (I still haven't completed my expense report), I've been averaging four meetings a day at work, waiting for a new neice or nephew to be born, spending time on a boat, celebrating Father's Day, and avoiding folding laundry.
That's the short of it. Work has been crazy lately, as if it wasn't already. Some of our IT team from Los Angeles came out for some meetings. While the time was productive and beneficial, it was also stressful and caused me to lose time on some projects. I feel like I'm always juggling at least 3-4 tasks at any given time. I still love my job, and I'm certainly thankful that I have a job, but I could do with a little less stress.
On the family front, my sister is ready to have her baby any day now! We actually thought it was going to be last weekend, which was a big factor in us not going on the annual camping trip with our friends. As of right now, she's still just hanging around her house, waiting for the baby to be ready!
Saturday, I got the opportunity to decompress a bit with the guys out on the Chain O' Lakes. We went tubing, had a few beers, and just relaxed. Bob was definitely the tubing champion, even when he sent the tube flying!
Yesterday, we went to my sister's house to celebrate Father's Day. Unfortunately, my dad wasn't feeling so hot, having been fighting off a cold for a few days. My grandpa was also in town. Although one of my sisters wasn't there with her family, it was nice to get to see everyone else and hang out with my neice, Annalee. Which reminds me, her dad, my brother-in-law, has been competing in sumo competitions lately. Both Annalee and Rhys have taken to it a bit as well!
As for laundry? Well, no one actually LIKES folding laundry!
