    My “me-cation”

    October 18th, 2013

    I quit my job two weeks ago. I will be starting a new gig with a different company come Monday, but decided to enjoy two weeks off… and they were blissful. I still had regular ole’ me duty evenings and week-ends, but between the hours of 8:30am and 5pm it was me doing what I want.

    I walked the new Bay Bridge span

    I got a facial

    I played tourist in the city

    I did some hikes

    I ate great food

    I reconnected with some old friends

    I went shopping… for ME

    I did some chores that were good to do with no kids around

    I feel exercised, and educated, accomplished and reconnected. It was an awesome experience, that only makes me long for an extra week… although I know that if I had 3 weeks off, I’d wish for 3 more. It seriously makes me wish retirement came first in adult-life 🙂

    Still… I’m excited about my new gig — here’s to a new professional life!

    My “get rich quick” scheme

    October 18th, 2013

    Here goes:

    You know the privacy glass installed in limos? You know… the little sound-proof window that comes up between the driver and the passengers in the back? Yeah! After-market installs for standard vehicles.

    For any parent of 2+ kids you know why this is needed.

    Who wants to line up for this? I’m taking early sign-ups here.
