whats going on

with the Holiday season over, still in the middle of winter, and yearning for spring and summer, we always find ourselves in an odd mix of busy and hibernating.
We've been busy on and off with Racquetball tournaments as the season winds down. Yet as it winds down, we start up the summer league for the youth, and when that winds down, the season starts up again. So, it seems that we stay busy with racquetball all year long. So, this activity is in spurts, on and off, but usually somewhere on our agenda. A couple weeks ago we hit a new level of play, with Kylie and myself playing in a doubles match in the UVU tournament. We played in a round robin and ended up playing 4 other teams, for a total of quite a few games, which tuckered out Kylie something fierce. She had a blast, and is looking forward to another tourney and another chance for us to play together. Next week, in fact, will be that chance. We'll be playing sometime between Wed and Saturday, hopefully multiple times.
Not much on the motorcycle front is occurring, since its wet or frozen everywhere. We did get out in January for a big bike ride and get muddy and cold, and had a blast riding.
We are in full swing preparations for our trip to Greece, which is less than a month away at this point. Much excitement and planning still occurring to ensure that we pull off the trip successfully.
I was able to go to Colorado Springs recently for a Professional Development event (SQLSaturday) and it was paid for by work, which was a blessing and another tick in the PRO column for my new job. Oh, I have a new job. Should detail that. But since it seems to happen every few years, you know the drill. Got frustrated, found something better, moved to the new place, loving it, honeymoon still going on, still loving it.
