the Forty-Second Parallel

Haven't had time to do much around here for the past couple of weeks, mostly because life keeps getting in the way. The semester just finished up and the fiscal year end is approaching fast, so most of my energies around SIS have been tied up in those things. On the home front (literally), we've been in the midst of house hunting and just put a contract on one last night - woohoo!! :-) Now the fun begins ... we don't close till the end of June, which should give us plenty of time to get everything squared away. We're also going on our first real vacation in 3 years next week. So, all in all, life's been anything but quiet in these parts lately.
