Back home again

Well now... It has been a day or two since the last post and to tell the truth nothing much as happened. But I will tell you this. It is so good to be back home. I mean I really like the area of Californina that I was in but it feels nice to be back home with the family. My kids are doing great (and if I can ever get them to smile for the camera) Pictures will be coming soon. On saturday I took the faily to the golf driving range. Gina seemed not too into it at first, but when she started puttin' the hurt on the golfballs she really got into it. I took a few swings myself and when Gina and the kids started seeing how far I could hit, the really started swinging for the cheapseats (although the turf we were hitting on took most of the beating). Every now and again they hit the ball correctly and some distance was seen. It felt really good to see the smile on their faces, when to their suprise the ball carried when hit correctly. I am still learning myself but I am making sure that I am having a great time in the process. I am so glad that I had the pictures of California. I do believe that one day I will be able to afford that Nikon D50 kit and really go nutz with it.

I just spoke to my mom this morning. She too has a blog. If you are the least bit curious to find out what she has to say... It lies here

Now if I could just get my dad to post. That would be fun. You would have an entire family posting stuff. Pretty cool if'n I do say so myself.

You know I would like to end this post with something different...

I do not know who will see this or come across it but here it is:

Sometimes I like to think about the people who came into my life and are now are no longer a part of it. Some of these people I would like to think are somewhere still out there. I would like to meet you all again. So in no particular order (except the very first name set) I would like to list some of the people who have has special mening in my life and would like to meet again. Some I know I will not be able to meet again untill another time but some I know are still out there. Here they are:

Coming down to the wire

Hi all,


It is now coming to the end of my stay here in Temecula, CA. I have so much to do. I must still take pictures of the ducks and I must pick up some wine for some folks. Then I have to get on a plane back to Houston, Texas. My plane will leave at about 5:30pm and arrive in Houston at about 10:00pm. Jet lag will be hard on me. Oh well! As I write this I am trying to think of what else to write. I met some good people and learned quite a bit. Now I must apply it. I know I know you are wanting more pictures from Cal-if-orn-i-a... Alright already!


Talk to you soon,

Ryzynforce

More Pics

Diem Perfectus

What a gorgeous day it was today. I am happy about that because there were no major happenings today. I was able to take some more pictures. I will post them. Class was good. As has been these past two weeks. I should mention that I am a fan of the World of Warcraft game. I have a lot of fun playing. I group with some really cool folks. Anyway, I spoke to the kids today and they are doing just fine. I like it that way. It proves to be non-complicated. I have to go now... Must have clean clothes for the week.


Love you -- Mom, Dad, Gina, Hannah, Noah


Thank you Abuelo.

Me being Silly

What a nerd 

Good morning all! Right now I am sitting in my hotel room getting ready to go downstairs to have some free breakfast. I really like that because I do not have to worry about paying for my meals while I am out here. This is really quite cool. Earlier on this morning, I gave pause to think about what is going on with me and the things I am trying to change. Sometime I would like to be a little more subdued, but I know that is a difficult request. It appears to go against my nature and when that happens I tend to really screw things up. What I can try to do is to be a little more patient and try to listen more. I am really trying to focus on my job and be successful at it.


I forgot to mention that yesterday I reached a milestone. I was eating burgers and chili cheese fries. Well, at some point I became satisfied and pushed the plates after eating only half the burger and some of the fries... Might not seem to be a big deal to some, but for me it is a big deal... Seeing how I am overweight and all and I am trying to lose the poundage.

Here is another picture of me being silly in California -- Nature shots coming soon.

Diem Novo Deus

Well here it is... The first step on the next phase of my own reinvention.

I have always liked the Phoenix. Even as a little kid. I was always amazed at the myth and legend surrounding this creature. Constantly renewing itself, growing ever stronger with each rising from the ashes. What wisdom can be gained from sucha creature. I do hope to find out. I have learned a bit about myself in this process. I will let you all know as time goes by.

I took a look at this picture and I realized that I need to lose weight. Sometimes I will fly off on a tangent. But If you give me time I will attempt to focus back on the subject at hand. I will try to get as many California pictures in here as possible.

In the meantime, I am in Temecula, California. This is a nice area. Temecula as I understand it means "Valley of Mists". Nice wine country indeed. Somewhere here are some pictures from my California trip...

Enjoy
