back in action

It has been two weeks since my last entry and time really does fly. Blogging is somewhat therapeutic and I think of writing more often but then the days get away from me. erinne and the baby are doing great and she is such a great mom. babies are tough sometimes and last night was the worst night we have ever had. Baby Blu just wanted to party and hang out all night and not go to sleep. very rough one.
I am really happy that 2007 has brought me a new outlook and awareness in my life. i have realized that negative people, negative situations and negative thoughts are a real energy drain in the short time i have on this planet. i have decided that if i encounter situations or people liek this that i will just seperate my self from it. as i said the days are flying by and i have hopefully another 50-60 years left on thei iearth so i am wasting no time with those types of influences. this occured to me as i met a group of tri heads for a weekly ride. i was in such a good happy mood and saw a familiar face. i rode up to him and said hello, how are you? i asked if he came rode in from so and so city (can't release that) and without a smile, good morning he angrily said, "Fuck that place, that place should be nuked. It sucks"-- This is 7am and we haven't even left on the ride. not the way i wanted to start my day. i just politely excused myself and left. i am doing that more and more with people and situations. if i can't get out of the situation then i am doing my best to turn it around. i figure if i am going to be on this earth i better do my part to make it a better place. so if you are in a badd mood and can't get out of it, please don't bring other down. sounds like a public service announcement. But, this is what you get at 6am. By the way, coffee of the day is Starbucks Sumatra- ohhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhhh!

Off and running

So we are back from the family pilgramage and it was a convoluted but fun filled break. i have over 106,000 miles ont he Avalanche now and it's still chugging away. I'm thinking of getting away from american cars and going Japanese on the next go around.
Work is streaming in at a nice pace and it is the 2nd of the year and we have signed up some great new athletes and hope to be closing the deal on some new projects that will keep diapers on baby Kaia. Oh, i'm glad yo uasked about her. Freaking great is what fatherhood is all about. Every day seems to be better, seriously, this little tyke is the coolest and ultimate experince ever. I do not prescribe to one religion or spiritual movement but if ever there were a time i should use word blessed, it would be with her. I came home from a ride today and she was sitting on the floor and she looked up and smiled and laughed. Days over in my book. Didn't need anything else and it wa only nine AM. Now if 3 0r 4 certain people would email me back with some news I'm waiting on then it would make the month.
I know yo uwere wondering what the roast of the day was in our house. It was Peets, Major Dickasons blend. IT IS THE BOMB! go get it and think of me when you are sipping the best coffee ever.
