Another transition in my life

Here we are into the first week of September and it's raining in Central Texas -- just like it has every first week in September since I was a child heading back to school. I'm always a little sad to say goodbye to summer and this year is no exception. My wife and I had a great month-long trip to Canada in July; we've had several fun family get-togethers; and we stayed busy with audio projects when we weren't on vacation.

Today I'll prepare for a colonoscopy. And by prepare I mean I'll be in the bathroom most of the day cleaning out my colon for tomorrow's procedure. I made a New Year's resolution back in January to take better care of myself -- and that includes checking my colon for polyps. It's a routine procedure that helps prevent colon cancer -- among the most common cancers in the United States. I just watched an informative video about colonoscopies online at http://www.cancer.org/docroot/ped/ped_5.asp (American Cancer Society website). That's what I love about the Internet. If you have a question about anything, you'll find good information online.

Before I begin the cleaning out procedure, I plan to create a couple of music transitions on my keyboards. I'll do my best to keep them upbeat.
