Merry Christmas 2010

To all my fellow (and fellowette) Shamuists: I am not a big celebrator of Christmas, but I do want to send out an end of the year greeting. It has been a tough year for many of us, though I'm sure there has been some balance of good things.

The June Shamu conference in Montreal comes to mind as one of my best moments of the year. A few good concerts, some good tile work. Kids are healthy, and Karen and I haven't killed each other or had complete mental meltdowns (just partials).

As always, it could have been worse. But I wish it was better.

And I am enriched by the family I have here. And even though we don't seem to post and banter as much, just knowing that all of you are out there is a comfort.

Be well- gueuze

And to you too Gueuze.

It was worse - but now it's better.
The full-on Cancer scare from the past couple of months has just been down-rated to confirmed Hydrocele - but walking about is still difficult. Operation in <6 weeks.
And having just been "fired" from my job on Health grounds, at least I've got the next 3 months as paid leave.

Looking forward to living again, as opposed to merely existing...
