Right now I'm totally neglecting this site and keeping it on life support basically, as I learn to be a dad and focus really hard on work.
Some highlights since the last post.
Some highlights since the last post.
- Bought a car after 12 years without having one and a house which I've been trying to do for years, in Clontarf, Dublin. Chuffed with it, was close to buying something in Dun Laoighaire but thankfully Mum and Bro talked me out of it to wait, which I did and I think we got a better option
- I've been travelling:
- Boston a couple of times (two inbonud conferences and JFK library, meet with cousins)
- Cascais again, in Portugal (wife's 40th)
- Japan and Singapore, and
- Brazil for an entire month on Sabbatical from work
- Ireland visited Killarney, Clare (Cliffs of Mohar, Bunratty) and Waterford a ton (mother and father's 50th wedding anniversary, check out the new Green Way). Also, saw Waterford unfortunately loose to Galway in All Ireland Final.
- I've been working my ass of and trying to learn how to manage a big group
- Trying to figure out how to plan and execute better and pot hole prevention as my manager calls it
- Had a 19 person 360 review of my work, which results in a 20 page document, delighted with the fact any company would do something like that for me, still trying to apply it's results, and get better at areas I need to improve in my leadership style.
