James Woosley’s Blog

Okay, so it’s been two months since I last posted. Life is busy and such. So here’s a speed-round to catch up:

• Jack (the new dog) is now Lily Jack. Turns out he is a she.
• Back pain, flu and sinus infection. Physical therapy, medication and antibiotics.
• Read several books I need to review here, including QBQ, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce and The Fair Tax Book.
• Started Winning the Future, Good to Great and The Search for Significance…need to finish and review here.
• Volunteered for a Newt Gingrich dinner sponsored by the Alabama Policy Institute…got my picture taken with the Speaker and his autograph, plus a very special souvenir…a future post of its own.
• Still adjusting to being on a local consulting job and sleeping in my own bed every night. Isn’t it strange that that’s strange?
• Dealing with hundreds of instances of blog comment spam. I guess it means my blog is getting noticed by someone?
• Started my sixth Financial Peace University Class (visit GazelleIntensity.com)
• Finished my taxes in February…the earliest I’ve ever done it! Something about getting a huge refund (Adoption Tax Credit) can squash the urge to procrastinate.

And today is the two year anniversary of my departure to Taiwan to pick up Ian. What a trip and what an amazing two years!

More posts and more detail to come shortly I hope…as well as a software upgrade that can hopefully deal with the comment spam better. I hate that stuff (but I filter it so you don’t have to wade through it).
