Mecka lecka Hi! Mecka Heiney ho! :ba :sq

poor ralph, lol! i'm so sorry i haven't been here, things are just very busy here, and i've had a lot of trouble with my illness lately. i will be back sooner or later, i do pop in to read!

Actually I have been around very little myself. Work, music and the kids have taken up most of my time. I am currently working on promoting a big event that we are organizing at church with at least two bands (a very good Celtic group as well as our band opening the show) and a radio station doing kids games and providing pre-show music. Since I have background in radio and have worked locally in radio, I was given the task of making contacts and handling ads and promos. It will probably keep me busy for most of August. We will be doing a ton of rehearsals and I will be hitting the phones and the street. It will be an open air thing in an amphitheater in a local park. Work has been nuts. They keep shutting down parts of my plant and guys will soon be laid off in all probability, yet my area is busy. We get forced too work overtime left and right. Hopefully we will get guys from other areas to fill in soon. I can't even use my vacation or personal days. They keep denying me because they have too many vacancy's. It makes no sense when other areas are slow. Who knows what is going on there.
