Dang! What a long 3 days! Getting everything ready to go tot he Ukraine has taken all of my time and evergy....ugh!! I have worked 12-14 hour days for the last 3 days, I had to come in today (Saturday,) and will be in tomarrow to try to finalize some stuff. Monday is a final walk around and walk through to verify that all of our equipment is crated up and ready to go, and then we hve to load it all up onto a truck to take to the airport and put it on a cargo plane to the Ukraine. Then we have to start on our second shipment - all of the stuff that we didn't have in time to send on the first one! That should ship out wednesday.....and hopefully I can take a couple of days off. We are still waiting on paperwork from the Ukraine government to get my visa. They are gonna feel kinda akward, having all of this equipment over there, waiting on us to get started, griping about how long it is taking us to get stuff done and get people over there......and then we're gonna tell them that according to their laws, we can't come over until they invite us. LOL....geeze, anyway. I wen tup to Huntsville the other night to go out with an old friend of mine that used to hang around my group of friends. It was good to see her. She is still bitching at me for smoking while I drink. EEEEHHHH, allright, whatever. It so cool to walk into Shenanigans after I haven't been there in a long time, to see who still recognizes me. A suprisingly large number of folks do. Saw one of my very best friends that is bartending there again....When I first moved to Houston, he was a bartender at BAR Houston, and he really took care of me. Then BAR shut down, and he went back to tending bar at Shenanigans....Dang good guy. Anyhow, that's my life currently...hope ya'll are all doing as well. Take care, and God bless! Rigrat ADDED!!!!---!!------!!!!!!---------!!!!!! I found out today that I WILL NOT have internet access while I am in Ukraine. This means that for 3-6 weeks, I will not be able to post......I will do my best to take pics, take notes, and have one mega-post when I get back, but this is a give-and-take relationship. I make a mega-post, I want mega-replies! God Bless.
