As we close out July 2012, the Olympics are the talk of the nation and the scandal at Penn State is the talk of my circles of friends. Everyday there is good, bad, and ugly....but tonight I reflect on some recent happenings in my own life. Little did we know, that 48 hours after my last Park City Blog - yours truly asked Christine to get married and she said YES. Who wouldn't? LOL. She didn't know "the big question" was coming, but as I typed that blog I had the ring sitting on the table next to me. And Talismer Restaurant in downtown Park City was the stage for me getting down on one knee. So now that I have my blinged-out soul mate and she has agreed to join me in marriage and a lifetime of memories, we have begun the wedding planning. It's going to be a great event, slated to occur on on my 40th B-day in Coconut Grove, FL at a place called The Cruz Building. Save the date: 2-17-2013!
So besides the wedding planning, we saw another successful PROM for kids with cancer take place. It was a great night of memories that we made for some very special kids. All along I have continued to play softball on Wednesdays, and most recently started in a basketball leagues on Mondays. My knee is not liking me very much right now. And it's hard to balance some of these things while still trying to get my business with Ameriprise off the ground - that remains a top priority. Five months into my very own franchise, and I am very satisfied. It's alot of work but has been worth it thus far. In other events, we recently had Stephanie (Christine's cousin) come down for a long weekend. We took her to our caterer's tasting and to a Cirque De Soleil show. Our friend Corrine turned 30 and we went to her 30th surprise party in Delray. Christine has been traveling alot for work, and I managed to get up to see the parents a couple times. The 'rent are hanging in there...there 40th Anniversary is this coming week!
As I type this, I am in Orlando at my brother's house. Unfortunately this is the eve that a friend of mine faces a sentencing for a DUI incident. I am here to show support of him, who I have known for 38 of my 39 years. But let's not end on a negative note...let me find a positive one... OK here it is - my household of 4 (CF, me, Bark, and Lil) are having a great summer and enjoying pretty good health! OK here's another, once CF and I get the wedding planning done..we can focus on the HONEYMOON TO EUROPE! YIPEEEEEEE! Out.
