Well, I...uh...what had happened was...nevermind

I got lazy.  No other excuse.  I told you I'd be back much more regularly, but it looks like I lied...

Well, I won't promise to be back more often, but I won't wait 4 years to write another post.  Then again, some folks will say hearing from me once every 4 years is just about right.

From time to time, I get something on my mind and I really need an outlet. I could have used this blog a few months ago, it wasn't pretty here.  But I got past it, ready to get on with it. Like Nina Simone said,"It's a new dawn, it's a new day...and I'm feeling good".

Oh, by the way, I got a new gig!  After 15 years at the old spot, it was time for a change.  I am working for a great little company called Healthways.  It's a health and well-being company in the population management industry.  OK,before you freak out, we aren't doing anything sinister. Here is one definition:

"Population health management is the iterative process of strategically and proactively managing clinical and financial opportunities to improve health outcomes and patient engagement, while also reducing costs."

We try to make people healthier physically, emotionally, socially, and financially.  I am working with Genesis Physician's Group here in Dallas on reporting and data analysis for a Medicare program.  Interesting stuff, but I won't bore you with the details.  It's a groun-floor opportunity, and I do really love the work.

Old men need their res, so I'll say good nite for now.

It's a new dawn, it's a new day...and I'm feeling good.
