It has been almost two months since my last post and a lot of things has changed in 2 months To start off with, and the most notable, I ended my teaching career.  After 10 yrs of teaching, I decided to pursue a new career.  I was presented with an amazing opportunity to do something completely different.  I am proud to say that I seized the chance and pleased with my 
decision.Jeff has also been very busy at his new job (started March 1).  He is an art director on the Coors/Miller event team.  What does that mean?  Jeff and his compadres  design the graphics for all the Coors/Miller events-NASCAR, MLB, NBA, the SuperBowl etc etc.  As a result of this new job, Jeff has started supporting the company by indulging in drinking Coors Banquet. And I started drinking red wine.  I think that is a sign I am becoming more mature and sophisticated.

Note: Glass of red wine in my hand.  It is another story about what is in Jax's hand!
Athletics goals have also changes for the both of us.  Jeff is taking a year off from competitive racing and helping/coaching me.  He has been training hard for the last 6 years.  It is time for a break.  He has directed all his training time toward gaming.  Gaming?  Yes...XBox360 gaming. It is a trip to witness Jeff do things he did not have time to do before because of the 20-30 hrs per week of training while maintaining a 40+ hr/wk job.  I am proud to say he already "beat" Bio-Shock and Gears of War.  I would venture to say that in the next two week he will add Gears of War 2 to the list.
I am taking a step forward (or backwards depending on how you look at it and who you ask) to focus on some new athletics goals. I am very excited about what is on the horizon and the journey.  Jeff has been instrumental in helping me define my goal(s) and set a plan in place that will get me there.  Stay turned for updates (at least within the next 2 months).  
So there it is.  A 2 month update in 4 paragraphs.  
Rock On
JK
I'd love to end my teaching career too.
ReplyDeleteWhat opportunity did you get?
Seems like teachers are good at everything (relatively speaking) and nothing. . .
Congrats.
My little baby Jeffy is drinking Coors and playing video games. I feel as though I have lost him. DAMN YOU XBOX and Peter!!!
ReplyDeleteIs Jax holding a giant dildo? I can't blow up the picture to see.
Awesome that you have seized an opportunity to take a new path! Everything always works out for hard working, good people... you are going to do awesome as always!
