You'll see less of me for a bit

[Drew Dowdell]

Starting Monday, I will be on the road for work for 5 weeks straight, returning home only on some weekends. I will still be checking in when I can, but the volume of my posting will be down substantially.

[G. David Felt]

Have a safe business trip.

[daves87rs]

Gotcha...be careful out there!

[Drew Dowdell]

sorta back.... but really exhausted.

travel resumes in two weeks. I'll be away almost all of April.

[Robert Hall]

Sounds tiring...I have to do a couple weeks of work travel to a client site in the next few months...a week in April and a week in June..to central Louisiana.

Hey Drew,

It was good to see you when you were in Chicagoland. If your April travels bring you back here, let me know.

one more week of this....

[daves87rs]

Over soon!

[Drew Dowdell]

Starting tomorrow, I'm fully back in the saddle. I head to Dallas-Love Field to head home in a couple hours. I still have 11 more trips between now and July 31st, but most are just overnight runs and all low stress.

[G. David Felt]

WOW, Safe Flight with the crazy midwest storms.

[Robert Hall]

11..that's a lot....I was in Denver this past weekend...have 3 work trips to Central Louisiana over the next 3 months, a conference in So Cal in June, and personal trips to Chicago and Indianapolis (Indy 500, Memorial Day weekend), Ohio, San Diego, Monterey, Ca and Denver again between now and Labor Day...

I"m sorry guys, this really isn't what I want. I feel like I've been neglecting things around here... much less at my own house. I'm never home more than 4 days at a time lately and typically only weekends. I'm home all next week and then back on the road the morning after my birthday.

Don't worry. Hell has not frozen over. SMK still doesn't like OHV and thinks Hyundai is the best.

Make sure to take care of yourself Drew. We do not need you sick. Get rest, snuggle with a loved one and recharge when you can.

Have safe travels as we go into the nasty winter season.

[Robert Hall]

I can relate..

One day working in Scottsdale this week, then 4 days in central Louisiana at a client, home for the weekend, then 4 days in So Cal at another client next week.. I'm starting to become a road warrior myself also..such is consulting.

Cool... I'm a US Airways fan, but my company always uses Southwest and Hyatt. But I do have a corporate Amex card, a corporate Mac Book Pro, a corporate iPhone, and a corporate iPad..

I did not know you came through here to Houston. Interesting.

[Drew Dowdell]

Houston is company HQ now (was Toronto) I believe I'm going to be there at least once more this year.

[Drew Dowdell]

I'm actually home till after thanksgiving! But so much work stress I'm getting tightness in the chest. It never ends....

[Drew Dowdell]

I had a great time over the weekend. I spent three days relaxing up in the mountains and then work manages to undo all of it in 4 hours. I didn't want to get out of the car to go back into the office after lunch. I'm down in Tulsa this week (and was last week also).

[Drew Dowdell]

Sorry guys, I've had a rough couple of weeks here. I'm ok but I'll be laying low as I recover. Good things on the way though.

[daves87rs]

Feel better, and hope the coming weeks are better too!

Pretty poopy winter, if you ask me...

[Drew Dowdell]

Thanks... I was sick two weeks ago, but that's not really it. Just a bunch of different stressful situations all hitting me at the same time.

[G. David Felt]

Hang in there Drew, Spring is around the corner and life will only get better.

[Robert Hall]

94 degrees here today, spring is in the air.... I'll be flying through Houston on Sunday on my way to Alexandria, Louisiana for 4 days at a client site.

[G. David Felt]

Seattle has a november like winter storm for our first day of Spring. Raining cats and dogs with heavy wind in the city and dumping like crazy in the mountains. Skiing will be awesome this week. Since the storm started shortly after midnight, 6" has dumped already and they expect 2-3 feet today.

[Drew Dowdell]

Wish I could get out there to go skiing

[G. David Felt]

Wish I could get out there to go skiing

Any time you want to visit Seattle, I be happy to show you around and if it is during ski season, I take you with me and my son up the mountain. A good Pink wax job or Avacado wax for our heavy wet snow but it is killer to hit the back side of Cowboy ridge and do 2 1/2 mile runs in poweder.
