Grumps can suck it, it's Friday!

Got the final occupancy inspection approval on my "little" basement project. My 6 month odyssey of chaos and delay is nearly over. Time to paint, clean and move stuff back in...

I ate the best tasting tacos I think I ever had tasted in a store front Mexican restaurant in Pariler, Ca.

I spent the morning in Hilo and got shook up by a couple earthquakes.

Love seeing the tubes of my new bike being cut, bent and joined together on the internet.

Did an awesome hike with the family today. Well, my wife hiked. My son rode on my back like I was a donkey. But it was awesome.

21 days until we sell our house and de-camp to the country...

Got to hike in the woods with my two dogs, led by my kid who I once carried on my back through the woods.

Nothing major, but time to bump this to the top. I've stumbled into accidental form - JRA the last couple of months with no plans or goals, but all of a sudden I'm strong and fast. Will honor and maintain it with more attention to training and diet as cross season starts to sneak up. Also, taking three day weekend with no agenda just to hang out with my sweetie, sleep in, finish a good book, soak up the sun, etc. La dolce far niente.

Caps and gowns are the preferred attire at the RW homestead these days. We had a college graduation a few weeks ago, we have a graduate school graduation this evening and a high school graduation this coming Sunday afternoon. When the dust settles and we finish moving all three kids to different places later this Summer, I might just kick back, have a beer and head to Italy for a few weeks with Mrs. RW.

The state of Florida has an agency called AHCA that approves all new construction before they can be occupied. After 6 visits over 6 weeks they gave us their final approval today. We were literally working last night at 10:30 to finish up last minute items. They just left and we have a CO in hand. I wasn’t sure last week if we could get there. Patients are scheduled or move in next week.

Sleep this weekend!!

Craft beer festival tomorrow.
I have 150 feet of electrical wire to pull for a pool and for a garage upgrade at our new house.
I have Monday off of work.

Will be a good weekend.

Mike- congrats!
What type of facility are you referencing?
I'm in the HC real estate field myself and am very familiar with AHCA.

The project is called The Carol Jenkins Barnett Pavillion. It is an 8 story women’s and children’s tower with Pediatrics, peds ICU, NICU, 8 OR’s and post and pre natal rooms. The Jenkins family are the founders of Publix and live in Lakeland. They are most benevolent with their money.

]total construction time was 33 months and we will probably have another few months of work after they move in with owner changes.

Let's see...
I'm getting stronger and faster. I put down a deposit for my first ever made-for-me road bike. There's track racing tonight. Someone sent me a job posting that is practically tailor made for me. I don't particularly need or want a new job, but what the heck. Why not?

Life is just generally good!

Well ok...
Today my Direct TV box turned off twice because I haven't changed the channel in 4 hours X2. Hey, it's Ancient Alien Friday, I only need one channel today.

Tomorrow I take my son to another US Naval Academy send off gathering. This one at the Southwest Airlines headquarters in Dallas. He reports on 6/28 to start his freshman year.

Yesterday I got an official job offer from a company south of Austin. It wasn't a satisfactory offer but that's what negotiation is for.

On Sunday, I'm flying off to Las Vegas and driving to Kingman, AZ to do a job interview there. Kind of isolated, but I like the high desert and it's an excuse to buy a MTB. Garro is only 2 hours away, maybe another Coconino.
