Halloween Sadness

Sitting here in Arizona (Scottsdale) at the moment, waking up with a cup of Starbucks VIA in my hotel room. Since my last post, a lot has happened, including a great camping trip this weekend with Nicole and the kids. I'll post on that later with some pictures.

This morning though, I am sad. I like my job, and though travel is annoying at times, it can be fun. However, missing precious moments at home is truly heartbreaking for me. Nicole did such an amazing job making the kids costumes for Halloween, and spent weeks of late nights that I enjoyed observing as she toiled. So to have to miss the kids Trick or Treating in those costumes is a real killer. Worse, the corporate kickoff meeting I had to attend that caused me to miss it was totally worthless. I like the company I work for, but sometimes I have to question the decision making.

On a brighter note, I really appreciate seeing pictures of the kids as the night progressed. Thanks for being a wonderful mom and wife Nicole.

Not looking forward to a couple of Northeast trips in December though, although I do like the snow occasionally being a native Californian.
