Ok, I must admin, I’m not keeping this journal up-to-date as I had intended.  Life just seems to be throwing me a lot of challenges, chores and tasks.  It’s been difficult juggling everything and maintaining my sanity!  Fortunately I’m already insane, so I don’t nee to worry to much about losing my sanity.

First thing is first…  I want to welcome Daniel Gregory White to the world.  My sister gave birth to her second child (my first nephew) last week.  He’s healthy, happy, and just about as hairy as his Daddy!  I’m pretty excited to finally meet him when I head to Toronto in September.  Crystal gets to meet him next week when she goes home for a week.

I’ve been trying to network and plan some sort of event for this summer.  It’s been slow going because of my hectic schedule, but I still want something to develop.  As of now, there is no official sponsor to the event.  I will be working to put together an formal business proposal for the future of the Skate For Hope.  I know it will be a long road, but I believe with a bit of help, I can put together the largest in-line skate event in Canada.  I visualize people flying in from all corners of the world to participate.  Realistically, I don’t think this will happen this year.  But I know it will happen eventually.

I’m also happy to say that some of my injuries have been healing.  Although i still have not been scheduled for the ankle surgery that I need, my knee seems to be better.  I’d say I’m running at 95% now.  Just a bit more conditioning and I’ll be good as new.  I even got to test it out on the soccer field this past weekend!  Now, if only my cardio was back in top form.

There’s been many small tasks I’ve been juggling including website building/maintainance, wedding planning, and everyday chores like cleaning, cooking and still trying to have a social life.  It doesn’t sound like a lot, but there’s only so many hours in a day, and I spend the majority of them sitting behind a desk at my office.  At least the summer is on the way!  I’ve even been able to rollerblade a few times already.  Can’t wait for the really good weather to roll in.
