2008 on balance

This has been a year of ups, downs and the unexpected

2008 - what a year!

2008 - what a year!

Good

  • Got engaged to Nikki
  • Went to 3 weddings (Chicago, Tahoe & Palo Alto)
  • My Dad made it through a health scare and operation
  • Got a new car, Z4 Coupe
  • The country I live in is getting an good present at last

Meh

  • Didn’t get in any Snowboarding
  • Maintained the same weight for another year (lower would have pushed this to ‘Good’)
  • Transitive, my old company, got bought by IBM but it didn’t make me rich or even wealthy

Not do good

  • My Grandma died (Dec 9th)
  • Investments in stock too a tumble
  • Can’t sell either my house in England

Working way too much

I have been working way to much this week. Yesterday I didn’t finish work until 8:30 and left at 9pm. But still didn’t get home until after 10pm having stopped by Outback for a bite to eat. Hopefully normal blog postings will resume shortly.
