Hit the ground running...

Today was eventful at work, lots of stuff going on.

We had the first meeting of our "Beading Group" at lunch, and I can already tell it's going to be a lot of fun. You should be able to have fun on your lunch hour at least once a month. :)

The next month or so will be all about getting settled into my new responsibilities, new schedule and new boss. I'm very excited about the future. We did have a team member promoted though, so that's another gap on the team (which means now we're two folks down on a 7-member team (at 6, soon to be at 5)). Never a dull moment, that's for sure.

I also need to get my routine at home stabilized around the new schedule, but I'm working on that as well. We'll see. Of course, it's American Idol season, but this year, I've just been recording it to my DVR and then watching on the weekends. More than likely, that will continue.

This weekend I need to see about getting to the Chevy dealer with my HHR, and going to the Bead Show over in Gwinnett. Other than that, I don't have plans in case anyone wants to volunteer to entertain me!

On tap in February: LA here I come (flying out Feb. 20, flying back to Atlanta on Feb. 24). I am open to suggestions for anything to do there that is particularly cool that might not be obvious. I'll post more of my plans as we get closer to the date.

I'm back to trying to fly out of town once a month for leisure travel again this year. I managed to do it a few times in '07, but my illness kinda took the wind out of my plans for the most part.

I'm finished rambling.

Ciao for now.
