As everyone knows it’s now the holiday season, the time of year when everyone finds reason to feel all warm and fuzzy inside.  From Thanksgiving till New Years, most companies are slow as most of the office is either on vacation or just waiting till the weekend to do some shopping.  I’m excited to be back in Texas for a bit and able to spend the holidays with my son and family.  No matter how much they get on your nerves, there’s nothing quite like spending time with your loved ones, especially when you live far from them most of the year.

For me personally this has been a really big year.  I made a move to Washington, DC in January not really knowing much about the area.  I just went out on a limb and it has paid off really well.  I’ve got a great job that allows me to use alot of my skills and expertise as well as find new ways to progress my career.  In the past 12 months I’ve been fortunate enough to meet a ton of great people both in the DC area and around the country.  Although the year hasn’t been completely rosey, I wouldn’t change it for the world because I think this is the year I finally came into my own.

One of my greater accomplishments this year has been starting this blog and becoming the persona of “GeekyCyberDad”.  It all started out with my Twitter account and continues to grow every day.  I’ve literally grown to 10 pages of Google results all about me.  God is good GREAT and is continuing to bless me more each day.

I can only imagine what 2009 has in store for me, but if this year was any indication then I’m sure I’m in for the ride of my life.  If you’ve stopped by to read this today, then I challenge you to reflect on this year and truly find some things (we all have a few) to be thankful about and carry over into next year.
