Happy New Year to all. And good riddance to 2008.
Personally the year was not bad at all, but I am still happy to see it go. On the bright side, Heather and I moved to Beaufort when she accepted a great new position at an amazing church. I was able to keep my job with LN and work from home so I didn’t have to find a job in a fragmenting economy. My family is in good health and hanging in there.
My training for the triathlon is going well after a detour for the holidays. I ran about 6K today and did about 1300M in the pool. Heading out for a nice ride with some friends tomorrow and another swim on Sunday. My plan is to swim 4 days a week, run three and bike three. The swimming thing is really growing on me: it’s great exercise, easy to get motivated, and I can do it in the morning and still ride or run in the afternoon. Also good news: one of my best friends has decided to start training for the triathlon too.
On the downside, a few good friends at work were laid off and there is a serious possibility that others could follow. Our business took a serious hit this year as people tightened their belts and cut back on unessential spending. Heather and I left behind some great friends in DC.

I think my most significant resolution is to start posting here regularly. I know some of the content will be of little interest to anyone but me, but please bear with me.
Good Luck in the New Year!
