Indeed, moving hardly seems appropriate. Flying may perhaps be a better term in this case. A lot has changed in the last couple months. As I mentioned before, I started a new job. It has been a lot of fun, and a lot of work (as you can probably tell by the previous posts). The two guys that used to work here left things in a bit of a mess. Fortunately, I’m a bit of a neat freak (I know, my wife wouldn’t agree), and so things are shaping up nicely. Having a real budget is also a nice change (sorry Joe). I also get to work with one of my good friends, Matt Hull, which is pretty awesome. We also have a Fantasy Football league up at the college, and I’m beating everyone handily. It’s kind of nuts. So far, I’ve only been favored to win 2 games. I lost one of those. All the other games, I’ve won. I’m favored to win next week, so I’m nervous.
We also just bought a house, and moved in subsequently (I think I used that properly, grammar nazis… go take a hike). It’s great. It’s not large, but it’s perfect for us, and will last us for a while (until we have eight kids…). It’s got a great yard, and Scooter is just loving it. The sellers had done some remodeling, but hadn’t quite finished things up, so we got a great deal on it too. We took some pictures, but they’re stuck on the camera right now. I’ll hopefully get them posted this week sometime.
We’ve had some snow already, which is great. It melted quickly, which made Amanda happy. I would have been more excited about it, except it knocked our electricity out for most of a day (about 15-17 hours), and we had no heat in our house. We bundled up, and made it through just fine.
Amanda just got a job, and her first day (today) went quite well. So well, in fact, that her supervisor is having her work tomorrow all by her lonesome. She’s also going to be directing the Spring play for the high school in Savage which is about a half hour north of here.
