A Pretty Great Weekend


It’s been a full and eventful weekend; just the way I like it.

Friday night Michelle & I did a little window shopping and then had an ‘appetizer’ dinner. I’m not one for wandering around looking at ‘stuff’, but when the trip includes a stroll through REI, I can be convinced. When the tour includes racks of new ski gear, I can hardly be contained. Contained I was. Michelle tried on a drop-dead gorgeous parka that will have to wait for the spring sales.

Did I mention Michelle looked drop-dead gorgeous in that ski parka?     

Saturday, after my morning workout, I spent a couple hours having lunch with old friend Rick. He’s visiting ‘home’ from Arizona, where he and his wife now live. I guess everybody needs a dose of cold rain once in a while. It was get good to hang out and get caught-up on life. Rick and I spent a lot of time together skiing, hanging out and just being in our early twenties. When small talk turns to grandchildren and pending retirement, you know life has ratcheted forward a few notches.

Today Michelle & I held open house in Mukilteo. It’s encouraging to see how many people are out looking; even better are the number of people with the stated intention to buy. That’s what we like to hear.

All in all it was a pretty great weekend. The only way it could be better is if I were down 89 pounds.

Oh wait, I’m down 89 pounds.

Life is pretty great right now.

I’m a lucky guy.
