Here we go!

The Support the Gap event is tomorrow. I believe everything is in place and I know have to depend on others to see this through. I had to deal with some trying personalities, but have persevered. I want this to be huge success, but I've come to a realization. If I see excitement and understanding in just a few attendees then I know I've done my job and I've done it well. I'll see you all when smoke clears, then again I may go into hiding until I recover.

Down to the wire

The conference that I have been planning, working on and getting ready for is this weekend. I can feel the tension in my entire body. I have a short fuse and I'm not getting much sleep. I don't know how people do this on a regular basis. I will be so glad when the event is over, but for now I just need it to be a small success. I think I may take a mini vacation afterward. Sorry to those who haven't heard much for me. The Support the Gap event has consumed every waking moment as of late. That will not be the case after Saturday.

Kim the pirate

Ok that was quick

This morning Kim and I drove to the outpatient service in Palmdale. We checked her in, signed paperwork and before I had a chance to think, Kim was in and out of surgery. It went well and she's resting now. Unfortunately she'll have to endure pirate jokes for the next 24 hours, at least, but I don't think she'll care once she is able to see. Thanks for the well wishes and I'll try to sneak in a pirate photo, if Kim will let me.

Surgery tomorrow

Kim is having the first of two cataract surgeries tomorrow. I'm sure everything will be fine, but I'll be glad when it's over. Then I can take care of my honey and wait on her hand and foot. I'll blog about the event tomorrow, but until then think good thoughts.
