All the News that's Fit to Print!

Well, here it is Monday again, and as usual, life is so busy and so damn interesting I don't even know where to begin. (Life just is so much better now that I left that horrible job I had.) So I'll begin with me.

I had my picture taken for my new website. It's not quite what I had in mind when I went in to the photographer, but I rather like it. What do ya think?

In other news, I worked like a dog all day yesterday cleaning and rearranging my home until I was able to carve out space for my "workplace". This is where I'll sit to work at getting my business up and running. Makes me feel all official and shit.

I just noticed that I had Facebook up on my laptop. (How official, haha.) Anyway, I should have my official registration papers in hand soon for my new nutrition consulting business, and I can't wait to share all the details with you.

In other news, the spouse and I officially decided on the weekend that all four of us are going to hike the coastal trail of Cape Chignecto in three weeks time. We did it once before, just Bob and I. It was a grueling series of steep hills and punishing slopes, and I barfed daily. Can't wait to do it again. It's the kind of experience that puts hair on your chest.

So I've been busy shopping my ass off to prepare. Some new sleeping bags, one new expedition pack, a new set of pots and pans, propane, waterproof stuff sacks, and Lipton Sidekicks by the bushel. (They make tremendous backpacking food.) The kids seem pretty excited about it, so I hope they can remain positive when they're scrabbling up those rocky slopes.

I also am leaving on July 7th for army cadet camp, so that adds a whole new layer on the shopping and packing. I have piles started all over the house, each for a different purpose.

I now have TWO positive reviews on Amazon.com, and I'm so tickled! Thanks SO MUCH to the two fine people who left them. I'm putting you in my will. :0)

I should be able to post my website by the end of the week, and Ican't wait to get feedback from all of you. Stay tuned!

Peace.
