Re: Trials of Life

You really want to know... okay,
I'm in the middle of one of the biggest projects I've ever been a part of.
Problem is I'm not allowed to do any of the work but just test it as to meeting standards. But its all on my head if the roadway passes or fails and if the contractor (which is my friend and former boss) get paid 100% or 50% of the contract. We're talking millions. Lot of eyes watching me all the time.
My personal life seems to be going downhill...someone I really cared about seems to have lost interest in me or is too busy to even think to say happy birthday. So be it. Usually when things are like that I throw myself into my work... but with all this rain I end up sitting around thinking of them.
The robotics group project I've been wanting to start to encourage kids with a parent in prison to stay in school and break the cycle of prison seems to be hitting one brick wall after another. We got the funding but the group that was going to work with us has had some setbacks and pulled out.
I've also developed some health issues... I've a heel spur that been making getting around painful and my blood pressure been jumping around like a out of control boiler.

But I just keep taking life's little trials as they come.
If life was easy, people wouldn't be dieing to get out of it.
Thankfully paving season will be over soon... We've got a lay us off banner in the lab already... little early but me and my crew been running 24 hrs a day , 6 days a week and are all looking forward to some down time.
I feel a road trip coming on
