And I’ve been whining a bit lately!

Ever since I left home for San Antonio, TX 16 days ago, I feel like I’ve been a little negative here and on Twitter, griping about the hotel I’m in for now, the commute, missing my family, the heat, blah blah blah

Enough!

Life is good.  I talk with Veronica every day and see her and the kids on webcam several times per week.  On the way here I meet 4 blogging and Twitter friends (yes, I wrote about just 2 of them, here and here, the others we’ll see what the future holds, they’re both in Texas and I hope to see them again) and there are plans to meet some others as well.

My course is going well.  It’s challenging but not too bad and I’m making some new friends.  The physical training program is also going well, I feel like I’ve lost a little weight and I’m getting in some good rides on my bike.

I’ll be moving much closer to what I’ve been referring to as “work” by the end of next week and both the commute and the living conditions will improve greatly.

I love my kids to death, they mean everything to me.  But you know what? A little break is nice.

The singles dating site where I created a profile last weekend, in an effort to get laid once in a while?  Nothing going on there, but I have no one to blame but myself- my profile could be better and I’ve been passive, sitting back to see what develops.  I need to put more effort into it if I expect anything to develop.  Hmm, maybe I’ll revise my profile and post it here for feedback sometime this weekend…

Four weeks from today, Veronica and I will celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary.  And we get to celebrate it together!!!  Dallas-area friends, she and I are meeting there and we would love to meet you!  She’s been to San Antonio before and frankly isn’t that fond of the town and neither of us has even been to Dallas before, so why not?

In the grand scheme of things, life is pretty damn good and I need to embrace the positive and push the negative aside.

Have a great weekend friends, I know I will!

    Yes – chin up! You’ll be back in your sweet life soon enough….And think about your anni reunion soon! Each touch will mean just that much more.

    Sometimes you just need to vent. :)

    A forum is a place to share all- positive and negative. I have used it for both as well. We all enter those ‘transitional’ phases from one positive sphere into the next. :-)

    it’s all a new adventure and you will take the ‘bull by the horn (ahem)’ with the honesty, insight and enthusiam we’ve come to love and enjoy!

    Being apart from the one you love is always hard – but absence makes the heart grow fonder!

    I am looking forward to seeing you…and a weekend away from the kids. Glad things are looking up for you.
