Survial Date: June 6th!

I am not dead! 

Sorry for my ex and anyone else that thinks their life would be better without me in it....

I have still just been really, really, really busy....

But June 6th is my survival date....

If I can survive till then, things should slow down....

Three projects at work will be out the door....

Two kids will be graduated....

Track will be done....

Prom/After prom will be done...

And some other stuff that I forget what it is I am working on should be done....

I am not dead - just getting older....

Which brings me to the reason I actually took time to post today....

I go this inspiring email from a friend and I felt the need to share....

As we get older we sometimes begin to doubt our ability to "make a difference" in the world. It is at these times that our hopes are boosted by the remarkable achievements of other "seniors" who have found the courage to take on challenges that would make many of us wither. Harold Schlumberg is such a person.


What does Harold do now that he is retired???  In his own words: 
Well..I'm fortunate to have a chemical engineering background, and one of the things I enjoy most is turning beer, wine, scotch, and margaritas into urine. And I'm pretty damn good at it, too!!


Harold should be an inspiration to all of us.
