I am Returning from a Blogging Vacation- Good News 6 Sep 14

Well, I'm back.  I know I kind of took an unintentional vacation along with a labor day weekend  vacation. In all honesty I was tired.  The latest chemo has taken its toll on me and I have found that naps are plentiful and long.  Either way, once again the world is going insane and it seems like even the good news is being called bad.  Perhaps, those in the media need to look at the tiny victories that have been shared and realize we don't need the negativity.  Now look at the joy on puppies face.  I found this picture when I was looking up pictures of good news.  In any case, one more excuse is prominent.  I had spent a bit of time putting together another web site for the little consulting company I have.  So here we go.

Good News for the Week of 6 September 2014

• Niny ran her first half mile, ever.  I hope this is the start of many miles in the future.
• Dona completed her 12 mile run for the upcoming race.  I love organized training plans.  Also, the kids are back to school and so far thing are going well.  Also, she found a soccer program for the kids. 
• Susan would like to remind us that football season is back.  Also, her two uncles that were in the hospital are now home.  
• Melissa survived camping with her mother and 3 kids.  Such an ordeal is stuff of legend and mythology.  
• Maggie had a good week at bridge but is taking a break for some belated spring cleaning.  I am sure that cards be back soon.\
• Donna had "16 totally gross miles."  That is the pain of running fall races.  It calls for summer training.
• Laura had a great day hiking and the moment of posting Tech was ahead.  There is more to come on that subject.
• Jason is obviously looking forward to a fall break trip to Traverse City, MI. 
• Pam reports that Mathew recovering well from his sinus surgery and tonsillectomy.  He will be returning to school this week.  Also, they had a good time visiting with my aunt Peggy including a surprise breakfast.  We are all glad to have her smile these days. 
• Danielle has survived her first two weeks as a middle school teacher.  She also went for a bike ride on a beautiful day and met with friends from Madison and their adorable baby boy.  Middle school can be trying.  Those kids start forming their own opinions and that can be awesome and troubling at the same time.
• Jason came back with something simple and awesome.  Virginia Tech 35, Ohio State 21.
• I also anounced the Hokie win.  Hokie hokie hokie hi, Tech tech VPI, Sol a rex, Sol a rah, Polytech Virgin-a, Ray Rah VPI, Team team team.
• Christopher says that the Vikings have learned to tackle in the off season and has applied it in week 1.
• Chuck went for a 9 mile hike on Kelly's Island on day two of his 15day road trip.  Sounds like fun.
• Jennifer made it to Salt Lake City without indecent.  That is a miracle given the state of our domestic air travel.
• Space is done.  It was a lot of work that paid off in a successful FACT inspection.  
• Sherrie reached the end of the chemo regiment.  What a nice feeling that must be.

So much great news.  I dare you to feel sad after all of that great news.  Okay, you Ohio State fans/alums may be a little sad but I would be sure that the game would be different if Braxton Miller was not hurt.  So besides that it was amazing and I am so glad you shared.  I look forward to next weeks.
