March Madness is on BABY!
So it begins....
A quiet roar comes from the crowd as they watch their team in the NCAA basketball tournament. It is March Madness and it is ON!
I made my brackets on ESPN.com and with 3 games in the history books, I am 3 for 3! I can't wait to see how the rest of the series plays out. It is so much fun to watch College Basketball. There is not as much showmanship as in the NBA. There are no huge contracts or egos. There is only the love of the game and the drive to be number 1. Oh, this is what I live for.... all winter I watch the stats and wait for Selection Sunday and then it begins!

Recap of February 2009
So here is my quick recap of the past month. Woohoo!!!
Finally went to the doctor to see why I have been having problems breathing at night and was told it might be asthma. So I got an inhaler and it works! Since starting the inhaler I haven't had much problems and when I feel short of breathe "Skoosh" and it is all gone!
We went to Mexico on the Carnival Fun Ship, the Carnival Spirit. It was a blast and lots of fun. Pictures to come. We went to Acapulco, Zijuantanejo and Manzanillo. I could do with Acapulco but the other stops were awesome! Lots of fun memories made and great times were had!
Lucky and Happy went back to bad news a work :( Lucky was laid off and Happy had to move her desk, work as a receptionist and take a 5% pay cut! These economic times are getting bad. I am hoping that things will turn around in the next 6 months - year. So Lucky is taking the time to regroup and to take this opportunity to do what she really wants! I am so proud of her and I admire her professionalism and quiet calm through this whole process. I will keep you posted ;)
So now we march on to March (LOL). May this be the month of new beginnings with Lucky and me (my diet anyways!!!)> Paddles

Review of January 2009
So, another year started, another month over. What did I do this month?
I spent New Year's Eve with my parents and sister in Bunkerville. We travelled back to Reno on New Year's Day.
Basically got back into the daily grind at work for the spring semester and just worked.
Got excited and ready for the cruise for next month to Mexico!
Jessie spent a weekend in Las Vegas (Bunkerville really) to spend a day at the LV office for The Glenn Group.
I made a bet on the Super Bowl (Cardinals vs Steelers) and lost by 3 in the spread. Oh well. Always next year!
Got a nice new yellow safety jacket from work for the games.
Brian bought me the first season of Rome from HBO as a Christmas gift. I bought the 2nd season of The Tudors from Showtime as my gift to me!
Watched Barack Obama officially become president on the 20th! What an amazing moment of history.
Pretty much, that is it. If anything else comes to mind I will make an edit :)

Office back yard 1/28/09
Just another beautiful day in paradise (work) and this the view outside the back of my office. I can't wait until spring comes and I can take this picture again with everything green! The squirrels weren't around for their pictures today. They must have gone on vacation.
I think they're married??? At least that is what Milton said!

"And as I said during my inauguration speech, if countries like Iran are willing to unclench their fist, they will find an extended hand from us."
- President Obama in news interview with Muslim Television.
I think we have sometimes forgotten that when we close our fist, we have many fingers pointing back at us and it is only us that we have to blame for closing our minds, hearts and hands to those that may now be willing to speak peace. Read the first part of his interview at

and see what an educated and diplomatic president the US had elected! Peace in the Middle East may be possible!
