Ready....Set....

Ok my plan was to write in this every other day. I think it was fairly ambitious, and I have already failed. lol Luckily, I bet just a few people are even hanging on my every word. So not a big loss that I did not follow through with my goal what can I say the Olympics happened.

I have gotten pretty involved with watching it. I am taking a break as we speak from women's figure skating. I am surprised I am watching it as much as I am. I have not been into Olympics this much since I was kid. So after watching the Olympics the majority of my free time, working during the day, and chasing after Ava I am just plain exhausted.

I did watch an interesting piece on the Sunday Morning Show on CBS(never was able to watch this before Ava was born). About the man behind Geitner who is handling all the stuff from wall street after the bailout. His name is Feinberg and I was really fascinated by him. He is supposed to be a master mediator. He has taken on some heavy hitting issues. Like the Vietnam vets suing companies who made Agent Orange and successful mediating a settlement that both agreed on when it was in the courts stalled for over 8 years. He was then asked to help with dividing the relief money to the 9/11 victims. He said the latter helped him become human again. He was too much a lawyer and was dealing with emotional issues too mentally.

He sounds like he has a great head on his shoulders and balance with his heart. He is behind tapping CEOs of Wall Street salaries and trying to change the way they have been doing business. You did not hear about him the main media. This piece on him gave me hope that someone actually does care in government.

So hope to post a bit more often after the Olympics.
