Hello,
Life has been a whirlwind for me for the past 3 weeks, it seems. I've been traveling each week so far in November. I think Tracy said I was home for 3 days so far, though I think I've been home on the weekends.
The first week of Nov was my usually monthly meeting, and I travel for the week to spend time out here rubbing shoulders and doing stuff with the people. I get extra done and more productively here. I also like to keep myself visible.
All of a sudden, just before that trip, I was "invited" back for a meeting the following Wednesday, which would be the 11th. I was to return first thing the next morning, but after the meeting, I was asked to remain till Friday afternoon. Thank heavens I always pack with extra clothes after being stuck one time, so I have clothes and just enough meds to make it. At that same time, I was also "invited" to come back this week. I told them I could only stay thru Wed night because of my vacation for the race. They said okay, so here I am. I was originally to leave this afternoon to fly to LAX and then rent a car to home, but I changed that, with advice from Tracy, to leave first thing tomorrow and go to Vegas and she'll pick me up there on the way to Overton/Logandale. I'll still leave the office this afternoon around 3pm when I was originally scheduled to leave to put together the details for the supplies and consumables at the aid stations. I plan to drop those off around 3am Saturday morning, and I don't want to be guessing.
I will be home for Thanksgiving week, but am leaving first thing Monday to return to Franklin. I've made the flight arrangements but I can't remember the details. I just was asked to spend as much time here as I can, so I'll also be home for a week, then returning the week before Christmas, then again the week after New Year for the monthly meeting. I have so many trips planned that my corporate AMEX card is almost maxed out even though it gets paid weekly after each trip. I don't wait a day to do the expense statement once the travel is complete.
When I'm here, I work hard and long, so I've been quite negligent at texting and say hi throughout the day. An 8pm work evening isn't unusual.
Well, I'm off for milk and bagels. Have a lovely day and keep me and my family in your prayers!
Love, Lewis

Wow you posted!! So proud of you!!
So good to hear from you! We are so sad to
not be joining all of you for the race. Keep
texting us during the race and let us know
what is happening. Is Marcus running this year?
Lewis! You are certainly busy! I didn't know you were traveling to Tennessee every month. Do you like it there? Is it a jungle? I guess compared to Colorado, anything is a jungle. Good luck with the race, you two!
love,
Martissa
