Hi-ho, hi-ho its off to work I go

This morning I woke up all ready to head off for my first day of work. I packed my laptop and was ready to leave at 8:30. I was meant to meet my colleagues at 9:30 and I have no idea what the traffic would be like in Cleveland, so I gave myself an hour. Well, the traffic was an anti-climax (which is a good thing). It took me 25 minutes to get there - no hold ups whatsoever. What a pleasure if it would be like this every day!

The people I met today seem to be good guys! I was given a cubicle and told that I will be getting a brand new IBM ThinkPad (WOOHOOOOO) and a pager! Then I was also told that the manager's policy is that any new person that starts in her department shouldn't have to buy their own lunch, so I get get a free lunch every day this week! Not a bad start I would say!

While I was at work today, Liesel was at home with Nathan. She is suffering from a terrible earache, and she couldn't take it any more so she has made an appointment to see a doctor tomorrow. Please pray for her, and that the doctor can do something to take the pain away!

Below are some pics from our apartment

Hi Grant

It has been great to hear of each day's new experiences. I supose that all long holidays does eventually come to an end, so enjoy the working scene. I could really do with some 30° weather again. We have had lots of rain these past two weeks in CT and with one 5 year, a 1 year old and a puppy, the rainy days feels as if they are 48 hours long.

Regards

Leon
PS: I like your choice of transportation.
