Well I'm getting ready to go, getting all my ducks in a row.
Work has increased exponentially due to some local movement.
New living quarters are being erected, I will try get some photos
of the new c-huts. You can also view them at Qaranim'i's
site also. I ordered some information on sciatic and specific stretching and diagnosis of the problem. It has seemed to help so far, keeping up with my stretching and strengthening. Hopefully should be decent by the time I take off to the states. The clouds have moved in and once in a while you can feel a drop of rain on your cheek, although it has yet to rain. Last year it didn't start till end of Nov, this year seems like a whole different story. I'll make sure to cover my things up tarps just in case of the leaking tents. For the last few days I seemed a little sniffly and tired. Tonight it hit me full force, the flu. I'm hoping that it's just 24 hours and I can resume on with work and travel. The body aches are extreme and make it hard to be motivated. I've watched a few movies recently as you can see. Hope to see you all soon. |

I won't go into extreme detail on the current circumstances, as it
upsets me, but let's just say that we're being moved around at will
and crammed into small spaces like rats. We moved last week
from having four people in a six person tent to having eight in a
six person tent. They have no tarps for the upcoming rainy season
so we will be moving again before the season and then moving again
after the season. I know I could have a lot worse to complain
about, but having your own space is a big deal when you don't have
any place to go. Also moving with no notice and working all
night and day flared my back up and it has returned to being constantly
painful once again. I myself am decently comfortable temporarily
due to going on vacation, we'll see what kind of mood I'm in when
I come back. 
Anyways,
with that out of my system, due to moving I will no longer have
any "open" internet connection, so I won't be able to
use any kind of instant messenger, voice chat service etc, until
further notice. I will only be able to answer emails when
working, but I will try to keep up! It's going to be really
crowded and busy here most likely until I leave on vacation, I will
do my best. |

Not
too much to report around here, life is continuing as normal.
My back is much better now due to continued efforts in cardiovascular
exercise. I've also been doing dedicated weightlifting, and
let me tell you, after the muscles have been asleep for so long, I
feel like a newborn calf. The energy lift has been great and
I feel more alive now though. I hadn't realized how badly my
body had atrophied throughout the years of dedicated computer usage.
I look forward to the upcoming vacation and relaxation to follow. It will be great to see everybody again and this time I'm going to try to focus more on rest and relaxation also. If you haven't been invited to the party that's being hosted in Colorado Springs, please let me know I'll send you an invite. I hope to see many familiar faces and maybe some new ones that you'd like to bring with. My sinuses have been acting up as of late and causing painful headaches occasionally, the trip away from the dust bowl should hopefully relieve that some. I recently installed Google Talk and Skype, so if you have aliases on either, please let me know so I can voice chat with you. If you need an invitation to Gmail let me know also and I'll hook you up with an invite. I
hope all is going well in your life. |

"Back" |

I
am "back" in action from the recent setbacks. My sciatic
nerve issues have resided and disappeared for now. (knocks on
a tree) After much stretching and resting, I am now back to
being myself. Also thanks to a work colleague and his memory
foam seat pad that he let me use until mine arrived. I'll
be hitting the gym in a couple days for strength training, to prevent
reoccurring problems. Due to the pain that was involved I tried to limit my human interaction as I am a grumpy grumpy man during that period. Now that everything is going back I will be catching up on the all the emails. I apologize for getting behind on all the email. Know that I would blush from embarrassment if you could see me.
Chat / read / talk with you soon!! |
