At the beginning of the week my company had a bit of an unexpected shake up and now it looks like I may be heading to Denver for a week and a half or so to help out. I’m not too sure yet how the trip will potentially effect my posting but I am hopeful I will find time to write still. In all honesty I am a bit more concerned about having to be a way from my family for the next week and a half. Oh well – we will see how it all shakes out and I will be sure to post the final results.
As for some good reading this week here is what I came up with for stuff I liked:

Another week has come and gone and I am very much looking forward to the weekend. It has been a pretty busy week on all fronts. My personal highlights include opening (and making an initial deposit to) an HSA as well as planning to get my emergency fund reestablished. Overall I would have to say that this week I have felt more productive than usual. I have also been making it a point to wake up a bit earlier and get over to the gym for a workout each morning as well. I have noticed that getting an early morning workout in really helps my energy level throughout the day and my ability to foucs at work improves along with it.
So let’s get right down to business here and start listing out some of the posts that I enjoyed this week:

Since my post earlier this week about the film An Inconvenient Truth I have been working at being much more conscious about my impact on the environment. So far I have managed to walk or bike to work the remainder of the week with the exception of one round trip due to poor weather and have been working on several other small steps. Long term my family and I should see some decent savings in our power bill, use a bit less gas, help the planet and I should even get some health benefits to top it all off! Pretty exciting stuff.
In addition – I saw quite a bit of good reading out there this past week and really enjoyed the following posts:

Well – I am not really ever all caught up but I am pretty close to being caught up at work. I had a few unexpected issues come up but I have most of the reactive stuff taken care of that I needed to square away. Somehow I still managed to muster up the energy to walk in to work this morning (about 1.25 miles from home) and make it on time. One of my health goals has been to try to either walk or bike into the office a few times a week and today was the first step in that direction.
There was also a fair amount of good reading out there to get caught up on so let’s get down to listing some of my peronal favorites out:

Happy Friday everyone! The weather here has gone from cold and rainy to sunny and predicted highs in the 70’s and 80’s for this weekend. I think that maybe spring is officially ready to start in the NEK (North East Kingdom) of Vermont. Provided I can shake whatever this bug is that has been bothering me I think my family is planning on spending a fair amount of time this weekend out in the woods. I really look forward to it and enjoy every chance to get out and about. Lucky for me that my grandmother has about 60 acres of wooded land just up the road a ways.
Anyway – here are some links for the day for reading that I found interesting during the past week:
