Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;
answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me. - Psalm 86:1-7 Favorite Blogs: |

Justin's XC team just found out the meet they were planning on running this weekend was cancelled, not sure if they can find a different one to run at short notice and close by.

3 miles after errands (tires for car, registration, meeting with contractor). (Glide Boost)
Three people retired from my office this week including my boss. By the end of the year over a 6 month period of time my boss, his boss and his boss (the office manager) will retire. Last year out of an office of about 200 people, 20 people retired, this year about 25 will retire and we know now of nearly 10 people next year who will retire. We have been authorized by HQ to rehire so far...<10 people. It is getting tough to get our jobs done and motivate people. We have not hired entry level folks in years. I have 6.5 years left (~1000 days of work by my calculation assuming leave, holidays, 4x10 work week). Going to be interesting...now to decide if I really want to put in for my bosses job when it is advertised (one that we hear will be authorized to hire behind).
A bit frustrated that Justin again is not racing (due to illness this time, bug going around campus). I know I can't own it, but still frustrated and hoping he can stay motivated at all for the team (he has lots of other good stuff going on so running is dropping on his interst list).
Enough of my rant. I am blessed with a good job, family and community.
