A long and busy day. We had a quick staff meeting so the team could work on putting together information for our fiscal paperwork. We had about 10 members attend the meeting today.
Geannetta and I met w/the FIM organizers today to review the event. We also discussed YS getting more involved to help bring the project to another level.
I’m looking forward in working on this project. It has great potential.

Monday, September 6th, 2010

Although it’s a holiday, Kyle and I are still grinding. My twin sister Janis will be joining us a little later. I believe this is a major month for DR. So we have to go even harder now. At this point for me holidays are not as important as getting the work done. Like my son Kyle says “We work now and play later”!

Happy Birthday to my daughter Paige (turns 15)! I was able to work on some DR administrative early and spent most of the day celebrating my daughter’s birthday. I’m proud of the young lady she has become. Working on the DR project is cool but spending time with family is even cooler!
