I lost my job with CSNW a month ago today, after working for them for 20 years. Readers with a memory of two and a half years will understand that I was not surprised by being let go, since I started the process of hiring my own replacements quite a while ago, in the hopes that I could move to more programming and project management work. The process took almost two years longer than I expected, since the first replacement didn't work out [...]]]> michael@followingedge.com () http://followingedge.com/blog/2008/08/after-20-years/feed/ http://followingedge.com/blog/2008/07/pool-day/ http://followingedge.com/blog/2008/07/pool-day/#comments Wed, 09 Jul 2008 21:11:31 +0000 Home http://followingedge.com/blog/2008/07/pool-day/ http://followingedge.com/blog/2008/07/how-lauren-swings/ http://followingedge.com/blog/2008/03/foxy-cam/ Now, with that post title, I should get some interesting visitors. But, seriously, our newer horse, Foxy, is going to be having a foal later this month.

Today, I went to the Gingerbread Village Restaurant with my parents. I was eating and I sprayed ketchup all over one of my dolls when I meant to put it on my place.

We did enjoy our campground and campfire, pictured to the right, where we roasted hot dogs and s'mores over the fire, relaxed and read in our camping chairs, enjoyed drinks, and played a game of Go Fish before sleeping in the rather chilly night air.
