After my quick trip to Denver yesterday, I’m off to Aspen this morning. Should be back by 2 or so. Ty had a good day on the mountain. He took a couple crashes and has a nice goose egg on his head. Not sure if he’s going back for more today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m on my third day of almost zero caffeine. Turns out I was drinking around ten shots throughout a normal day. I’d have a coffee when I wake up, one after working out, then a large nitro usually early afternoon and another can of nitro around 3 or 4. I’m down to one decaf every morning when I wake up and that’s it. For the first few days, I was super tired but I’m starting to get back to normal. I think I was just having a coffee to have a coffee. But caffeine is a drug, just like sugar, which I’ve abstained from too. Enough of me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lori has a 6:30 Zoom meeting so we’re up early. Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of when I hired Luisa. She’s like my grown-up daughter and we’ve been through a lot together. When I hired her, she was living in Seattle so on January 12th, 2004, she moved to Denver to work for me and then started on January 22nd of the same year. I totally forgot but she was on it as she’s detailed like that. That’s a long time if you think about it. If I would have known, I would have made a big deal about it. Might still do something. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’re still trying to figure out where to go for vacation. I have $2500 credit on United and 400,000 miles. Lori has a couple hundred thousand too. I think Jag has 150,00 and Ty a little over 100,000. We’ve narrowed it down to Spain, Italy, France or Switzerland. We might do two of the four, we’ll see. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last, Lori is organizing Dixie’s memorial service in Sacramento. It’s hard as we need to work around Lori’s, mine, Jagger’s and Kristin’s and the venue’s schedule. Could be the end of March or early May as of right now. She’s doing a video like I had done for Mom. Speaking of Mom, I was listening to a bunch of voice mails from her that I saved yesterday. I called Robi and let her listen to a few. In one, Mom called and said, “hey Doug, could you bring me a burrito? Ok, thanks, bye”. It’s pretty funny. Robi sounds a lot like Mom. It’s like she’s in the other room or across the street. I saved about 20 of them to my computer years ago. Good memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That’s it, time to get moving, have a great day and God Bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
