Happy Mother's Day

Due to conflicting schedules, I won't be seeing my Mom today.  I feel really crummy about it, as we seem to have a tougher and tougher time getting together.  I was hoping that the move to Green Bay wouldn't change too many things.  As it turns out, with my friends, my hobbies, and most importantly my family it changed a lot.  Far more than I would like.

But there's not much I can do about that now.  I'm here now and need to see the job through to the conclusion.

Looking back, I've miss a lot of Mother's Days.  It usually fell over fishing opener, and Mom always got the short straw.  There was always a call and card, but if you don't have the hug, well, it just lacks the important stuff.

So, Mom, this is for you - while not totally applicable, it's damn close:



I look forward to seeing you later this week.  Also:
