Life update

In case anyone wants to know what's going on with us, here is a quick update.

Last week I was in Georgia for the 4th week in a row for work. I got to come home to the Midwest each weekend which was fun, but it is still exhausting. Bob and I are packing up our rental house this weekend, and we leave on Monday afternoon to start our official move to Georgia. We'll be driving Monday and Tuesday, cleaning the house on Wednesday, and the furniture arrives on Thursday.

I have not set up cable and Internet yet, so you may not see posts for awhile until we get settled. The week after we arrive in Tifton is the climax of the project that I have been working on. The equipment will arrive and we will start running a new line at the plant. I will probably be working on that 12 hours a day, 7 days a week for a month until we get up and running smoothly. So I have accepted the fact that I won't be unpacked until Christmas.

I am doing a very good job of not thinking about the 'move' out of the Midwest. I am the last of my immediate family to leave the Midwest so it makes it a little easier that they are already spread out. It is still going to be hard to leave the family and friends that are still here. It's not like I get to see you all every week, or every month for that matter. I think it's the fact that I could jump in a car and come see you anytime that I wanted. Now, I'm going to have to hope on an airplane or a really long 12 hour drive and it wont be as often.

Okay...enough sappy stuff. I am not going to cry. (Out loud in front of people).

I'll post when I can.
