Busy

Just a quick update. It's been a busy few days for me and I haven't had anything really profound to say, not that I always need to be profound, but this blog is sort of a way to delve deep into those inner thoughts and do some introspection. Anyway, My daughter had a track meet on Saturday, and I went and sat in the sun and wind and cheered and watched and took photos and packed lunch and had a good day. She did pretty well in a field of 20 or 30 competitors in each event, she took 8th in the 880, 9th in discus and 11th in the mile. The kid can run. :) Then I packed up my bags and headed for the mountains. I've been at the State Future Business Leaders of America Conference since Sunday. I brought 7 students, 2 competitors, 2 delegates and 3 candidates for state office. The competitors didn't make it past preliminaries, the delegates attended a lot of workshops, and one of my candidates was selected as a State Officer. This means, we will be hosting and organizing the District competition in February 2009. It means a lot of hard work, organization and in general responsibility. I think we're up for it. When I get back home, things will be in full swing with the play. Opening night is May 1. Wish for broken legs :)

In all this busyness, it's been nice just to be in the mountains, to soak up the sights and let it soothe my soul. Even in the midst of the hectic stuff, it's good to just 'be'.
