Contracting

I have been between contracts at work for a while now. Sometimes it can get quite slow, and dull so I have to do what I can to keep busy. Even if it means reading books on new technologies. I don't mind because I enjoy learning about new and exciting technologies. I get to choose the subject, which makes it even better.

I got a couple phone calls over the last few days in regards to potential contracts. This morning I got a call for a contract with a position that looks like a good fit for me. It is close to home so the commute should be decent. I might even be able to ride my bike, or jog.

Hot Tub

My wife and I have been shopping for a hot tub. Man, they are expensive; I had no idea. It would be great if we could get a resonable deal on one.

We are still deciding where in the yard we should put it. So far the plan seems to be to put it in the trees with a roof above it. Now I have to find a decent plan for a gazibo I can build.

There is no way I am going to buy a gazibo. They are way to expensive. I don't think it would be very difficult to build. I may have to hire a contractor to lay the cement slab to put the tub on though. I have to get a few estimates. I would do it myself, but I am concerned about getting it level.
