More updates than Brian!

Who said I was never one to beat Brian at something? Hey.. I take great pride in portraying the stereotypical older brother. :-)

Yep another post in just over a week! I think it only happens because things are starting to pick up (or slow down depending on how you look at it.)

Last night I finally stained a wine rack that Kelsey and I bought a while ago. Its part of a week long birthday celebration for Kelsey. I didn't get stuff done in time, nor did i feel like i had the time, to put something special together for her by Saturday (her birthday). So instead I'm taking 5 days and showering her with affection and presents of every type. The staining was just getting back to something that we've been putting off. Its good to do something like that every once in a while. A small chore but something that when it is complete, helps add to a part of the house. Now we can buy wine and have a nice little place to put it!

The other big accomplishment last night was that we booked our Honeymoon! 7 days and 8 nights in beautiful St. Lucia in the Caribbean islands! We'll be staying at the lovely - all inclusive Sandals resort. Nice meals, great view, and all the drinks we can handle. I'm looking forward to it! :-)

We're also putting an effort into getting our deck completed in these next few weeks. Kelsey and I will do some pre-work on Saturday and then we'll be looking for an extra set of hands or two to help install the railings. We'll see who's available and how much work we can get done by next week. Its getting closer!

Other than that, just trying to survive the week. My summer activities are wrapping up shortly, and it might be time to squeeze in some running and bike riding. I'm still toying with a Duathelon in September. I'm not looking to set records, just hoping to finish. I guess that means i don't have a lot of time. Maybe i'll just keep it casual and work on being healthy instead of running myself into the ground for a race. There's always next year!


Ho - K Peace out..
