Happy Birthday, Welcome Home

Birthday girl and
the luckiest man

Last Monday was my beautiful bride's birthday.  She is celebrating 29 again (not sure why that year in particular).

One of the reasons I didn't post this sooner was because she keeps asking the impossible for her birthday present.  At first she asked for world peace, and then she changed it to clean the basement.  I asked her to reconsider world peace.

Anyway I've been working like crazy to get the basement clean, plus our eldest is home from Boston (got home last night) so we've both been cleaning the house and getting it ready for an additional mess maker (just kidding Teeny).  Actually we wanted to clean out that spare bedroom so she would think we wanted her home.

Happy Birthday!

Not on safari, near my lab
in Morogoro

I want to thank my Mom for making it possible for me to be with you here today.

Happy birthday also to my "Birthday Buddy" Charlotte.

What did I get for my birthday?  Well, I'm considering the safari I went on while in Tanzania as my present for this and many years to come.

Enjoy our day!

Kαλό μήνα, Time to Write a Novel

I'm going to try to keep working on my other goals AND write a novel entirely in the month of November.  I started today.  I have to be done at the end of the month.

Wish me luck.
