I'll blame it on ...

the sun would be too easy and totally not fair now she is always there and makes the day a whole lot nicer . So on what can i blame it that i have not writen on my blog for a while ...

nothing happend ? come on . we had the gathering of the old gang at Dell computer, which started slowly with a BBQ, but ended as usual with a late night . OK admitting, having a party on crutches is not ideal.

It brought back some really nice memories of working with a smaal team and really "work hard - play hard" .

Of course all the stories were hitting the tables, from the days when we were taking out the fire hoose to the Friday evening contest of bag running; roller blading; rope pulling and beer drinking ... or the stories around the adoption of lyrics of a song to the work situation ..

all of this was nicely balanced off against a genuine interest in what people are up to today, what their little worries are and great smiles .. what their happiness is and sorrow in some cases ...

and above all what struck me : they haven't changed that much. Apart from the rough edges being taken away

so what is the next thing we can blame it on: work ? maybe it is has been very busy with the next fiscal year at Microsoft and a lot of changes for our teams, but you know me, i kind of like the thrills and excitements of changes. We even went to Krakow for an offsite meeting.

Maybe i could blame on the time ? yes of course that is a very reasonable thing to do since time is passing by so fast i had to realize that my daughter has bought her first pair of heels. My god i had to admit: it was hard realizing she and he are getting into a new phase in their lives

so last try: let's blame it on the leg. In a way maybe, because i'm really getting sick of it. Getting around on crutches is not the ideal way to move around and the travelling i had to do is just not easy.

but all in all, i think i just was running to fast and not taking in enough what has happened the last six months with me personally .... So summer is here and feel i will take some time for myself ....

happy travels
