What can I say, a lot has happened over the last few weeks. New future wife, new car, new windows, new air conditioning. Throw in a couple of new clients, a few weddings, and our engagement party, and I think you’ll see that I’ve had a rather hectic schedule.

You’ve already heard about the engagement if you come by on a semi-regular basis. Yes, she’s still holding onto me. Amazing ain’t it? As for the car, well what can I say. After 10 years and hitting 200,000 miles, it was time to trade up. The Jeep gave me quite a few memories, a hell of a lot of stories, and great road trips which culminated when I took it for one last trip to Vegas back in April. Now we’re onto a new chapter with a VW Golf. It was a steal. An ’04 with only 16,000 miles on it. Given the fact that I’m gaining about 15 extra miles to the gallon, the blow to my wallet will be softened considerably over time. Oh, and the fact that it’s got a working A/C is a huge benefit considering the hot summers. Oddly, I don’t dread driving home from work in 100 degree weather anymore.

Getting the A/C (along with new windows) put in at the house also makes coming home that much more fun. Now, Katherine and I walk into a nicely cooled 74 degree house (love the programmable thermostat). Yet another amazing part of that being that the energy bill has remained steady. Who’d have thought that two window units would suck the same amount of power?

The weddings were fantastic! Rich and Dan, two old friends finally tied the knot to their longtime ladies in two great ceremonies. They were followed by two excellent receptions. Photographic evidence is available in the Events & Happenings album inside my photo area, if you’re curious.

As for the clients, yes, we’re gaining them all the time. So much so that we’re currently up to our necks in websites to design. Gotta love it when you’re up and coming business seems to be working out better than planned. When we’re finished with the work, I’ll have them prominently featured here for your viewing pleasure.

Other than that, nothing else to report. None the less, I’ll be trying to update a little more often so as not to leave you hanging.
