More Family Pix from Thanksgiving


Here are some pictures my sister took on Thanksgiving Day. Sitting with Amy and Jill is my nephew, Ronnie.

Ronnie and his wife, Tracey, have twin girls. Here's Sabrina playing with legos.


I have a bad habit of checking my email on my iPhone. This upsets the kids and I don't blame them.  I do have business stuff going on in Europe where it was not a holiday and I'm the guy who has to troubleshoot any clients who are having problems with my online assessments. I have actually lost business because I didn't respond fast enough to someone's plea for help, so I probably obsess more than I should on email. I did take Michael's criticism to heart and on Sunday never pulled out the "screen."

 I usually don't tell the kids all the stuff about the business.  I'm usually working on about 5-6 issues at one time. On Thanksgiving Day, I was getting hammered by my people in Europe wondering when we were going to deliver our test reports in A4 format (that's the size of their paper). Well, I have our team in India working on that and a couple of other things that have to get done. So, my head is in the screen because that's where people need me at that moment. Eventually the tech support function will be taken over by others and I will be able to go off 12-hour call on weekdays.
