I find myself visiting the site less frequently and when I do visit, I spend more time viewing and researching Hopeful sets and new sets from my favorite SGs. The CE boards had become my primary focus; however, the energy seems to have left that portion of the site.
Work is "okay," with very high levels of activity (been to Mumbai, Delhi, Dubai, London, and Herzliya in the past 3 weeks), but getting deals across the goal line has become challenging. I feel like Sisyphus.
I'm encouraged by the progress our Mr. Obama and his team are making. I know that many are not and admittedly, I had hoped for a bit more transparency than we witness, but I still rank this first 5 months as a 'A.'
No drama in my life, which is a big plus; but, it looks like my Dad will pass away soon. It's not so much that the cancer has killed him as the process has drained his willingness to keep fighting. Maybe that't the way it's supposed to happen - you lose your will to live, and then the reaper, sensing your resignation, arrives to announce last call.
Anyway, hopping on a plane to return to the oasis known as Boulder where we manage to keep reality at bay by redefining it on our terms.
Peace to everyone.

My father passed away last night in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho where he has kept a home for a number of years. He went silently and peacefully in his sleep after battling bone cancer for more than 8 years. I know he didn't want to go, but I think he is okay with the...change.
