I noticed a couple of my friends are still around. I wanted to just post one big shout out to everyone.

Quick update on me...

1) Life is GOOD.
2) Boys have been with me full time for several years.
3) My daughter is still with me 50-60% of the time. Oh..and she is now 15 so for those of you with teenage daughters...ya get it.


Peace,
Eric

Hey there!

It's nice that you came back around to post an short update! We miss your sage advice and wisdom here!

The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

Thank you Job.

I miss you guys too. Life has been very busy but thank God I feel like I am on the other side of the MLC nightmare.

Not sure if my post were 'sage advice or wisdom" but I am sure some would say that they were "lengthy".

Hope all is well on your end and I hope and pray that folks that are posting here heed your advice. Thank you Job...for continuing to give back.

Okay let see who will go along with this post.....

I know a lot folks are in the midst of what probably feels like the end of the world. Let's change what you think about for just a second.

Finances aside.....if you had a choice to book a reasonable vacation where would it be? If possible list two places. Finally, here is the big challenge. COMMIT to DOING IT.

Okay here goes....
1) Punta Cana Dominican Republic - Summer of 2017.
2) Sedona AZ - Spring of 2018

Great choices, guys! I LOVE Jamaica! Have lived in Alaska, really would love to visit Hawaii and Punta Cana (have looked into it recently) and also LOVE the song Sedona (Hound Mouth!). It's so stinking catchy...

Hi Eric! Good to hear from you. Have always respected your advice.. Hope newbies look ya up!

Tad, I will hit you up on your thread.

Ooh, I'll try this out. I've already been researching these!

1) Mediterranean cruise
2) A walking tour in Ireland or Scotland (or both!)

I need to find out about grad school acceptance first, though, before scheduling. Totally looking forward to them!

I know it's cutting it close, but try for Sedona in fall of 2017. Someone is graduating out in AZ who really really wants to see Sedona! Just sayin'

I went to Jamaica this year and punta Cana in 2009. I actually liked punta Cana better although both were gorgeous. I've been to Hawaii, but want to go to Denver and San Diego really bad.

Arizona will definitely be happening! Next year!

I'll let you know when you I make it out there. Maybe we could do dinner or something. I have been to Alaska....all I can say is the views are breath taking (as was the company I was with).

Mighty - Where in Alaska (Anchorage)?

Hmmm...the Mediterranean sound great. I have wanted to go to Greece. As for Ireland, I see a fair amount of deals on Groupon. What is the target year for these trips?

You'll have to let me know who that someone is.

Oh....and just a reminder...isn't Punta Cana on your list for next year? Just sayin.....
