Back from Holiday
Today (Wed, 1/2) is my first day back from the holidays - I essentially took a week and a half off. I got almost everything on my plate wrapped up before leaving so we are a little light on work now. We are still working on the coal-fired power plant project I mentioned last time, but we are waiting on some information from the client before we can proceed much further. Waiting on the client for information is a frequent occurrence that we just have to get used to. The "free time" has allowed me to write a couple proposals: one for about $50k for a major permitting effort at a paper mill and another for about $5k for some "minor" air modeling assistance for a local power plant. As has been a running theme in my posts, I love the variety we experience.
On a personal note, I am still trying to recover from our New Years celebration. Not how you might think however. I chaperoned an all-night (9 pm to 7 am), no-sleep allowed youth lock-in at my church. I think I am getting too old for loud rock concerts and running blow-up obstacle courses against teenagers at 3 am in 20-degree weather.
