Due to a Failure of Situanal Awareness, Bonus Good News

It was not long after I posted the Good News for the previous week that I thought something was up.  It seemed like I remember there being other news posted.  I thought I had posted things but my brain has been playing tricks on me lately.  It thought that I could drive 502 miles in less than 24 hours and over 1004 miles through the entire week between Charlottesville and Philly.  Luckily I did not do it. My body intervened and told the Brain where that idea could go.  In any case, I looked back at the submissions and clicked on the thing that said "View 9 more comments."  There they were a bunch (9) of more submissions that I totally missed.  So due to my lack of Situational Awareness, I bring you the extra special Bonus Good News.

Bonus Good News for the Week of 26 July 2014

• I got to go down to to Charlottesville, for the Apha Chi Sigma Biennial Conclave and get to see so many friends that I call brothers.
• Matt, Susan and Claudia got to meet up with me and also had a blast at conclave.  It was fun and the plethora of hugs and hand shakes were awesome.  Thanks for the support guys.
• Josie reports that the Southeastern YMCA had a successful summer carnival and raised some money for the annual campaign. I am so glad that things are going well at the Y.  It was you guys that got me started running so I owe you guys a bunch.
• Cindy was stoked to see the family and I at conclave.  Though I missed Cindy, Space and the Psycho met up with her and had a good time.
• Donna has been running well on her training program and has been feeling great.  She also reports that she has been dealing with the little bad things going wrong with "grace and patience."   I am getting back to the running with some walking but will be back at it soon and perhaps I can get to run with my buddy in the future.
• Pam reports that Mathew got his braces out.  Check it out.
• 
  Melissa came at us with "My husband gets several weeks PAID vacation from his teaching job and he is not allowed to just cash it in this year. This means he will be around. His tightwad tendencies trumped his workaholic tendencies. We have come to an agreement that he will only work EVERY OTHER DAY ( at his side business)during his "vacation". Longstory short- my kids will actually get to see their father this summer ( he usually works 60-80 hrs/week in the summer."  I understand him to some point.  I really couldn't take a day off completely but Pete will have a good time with the kids.  Take from the guys who hasn't been able to work for almost 2 years.

Once again I am sorry for totally missing those other submissions.  I got fooled by Facebook again.  Any who, thanks to all of you guys for your awesome amazing good news.  So this Monday evening bonus is for all of you that have contributed.  May your Tuesday be a little bit better. Oh and a special shout out to Holly for joining the good news.  Thanks.
