Its been a month…

by Chris on May 11th, 2006

I think I just went the longest time between blogs since I started blogging back in 2003. A lot has happened in the last month, some of it good, some of it bad.

Last week I got some really sad news. One of my neighbours kids was killed in an awful car accident in Tasmania. She was 19 and on her way back from Launceston. I am not going to mention names (cause google will more than likely find it) but you would only have to pick up a Tasmanian news paper to figure it out. The funeral was this week and the Church was packed. I am sure the service was lovely. Things like this make you wonder and realise how trivial some things really are.

On a lighter note I have been and come back from Denver. The project out there has started up really well and we are well ahead (yes ahead!) of schedule. We are actually a bit far ahead and it is causing planning problems :-)  The weather really varied out there with snow on the first day of DGM to beautiful sunny weather at the end of the week. Unfortunately I did not get a good look around Denver as my bill rate was over 190% which did not leave much time for anything else.

We are currently bidding to try and win some work in Flagstaff Arizona. It is only a small job but it would be a real buzz if I managed to get back there. Next week I have a couple of days away, this time in Virginia. We are heading back to a site I spent 3-4 weeks at last year.

I am now a big step closer to being finally settled here in the US. My social security number came while I was away finally and I have already used it to secure myself a credit card which is working nicely :-) I signed up for a trial of Yahoo! Music which is pretty good. I am trying to decide if I should keep it or not.. I probably will :-)

 Anyways, maybe next time I will blog sooner.

 Cheers, Bell
