good things for January
1 - Saw lots of folks at church in Greensboro, toured Doug and Cindy's new house, rode a Gator and operated an excavator with Jonah, and met baby Aidan.2 through 9 - [there were many good things, I'm sure, but this week is one of those holes in my record-keeping]
10 - Started new job. Orientation was painless, and I had a choice of offices.
11 - JAUNT Board made a dumb decision that made it even easier to leave for the new job.
12 - First whole day at new job. Either office provides views of trees.
13 - First holiday at new job.
14 - Crystal played with Jonah while Amanda and I did some much-needed organizing.
15 - It took all of Jonah's naptime, but I fixed the coat rack, at least for a while.
16 - Pancakes and local sausage for dinner.
17 - Reserved a hotel for first trip of new job (Transportation Research Board).
18 - Apple sent me a tiny, fancy new Nano to replace the vintage one that was recalled.
19 - Spudnuts and Bodo's at work. Eatin' round things with holes.
20 - Pizza lunch with the new boss and listened to a colleague give a talk in one of the old engineering classrooms.
21 - We tried an appetizer at Belmont Pizza.
22 - Snow, without all the problems that usually come with snow.
23 - Safe trip to DC during morning rush hour when it was supposed to be icy.
24 - Saw some old friends and colleagues I wasn't expecting to see.
25 - Was glad to get home and see Jonah and Amanda again (well, I only saw Jonah at church).
26 - Attended a planning meeting and saw many of the usual suspects.
27 - Back at JAUNT for one last day to give a decently well-received presentation.
28 - The weather was nice enough that we walked to the open house of the International School, where Jonah will not be attending preschool.
29 - One of Jonah's friends appeared at Red Robin as we were lunching and sat by us.
30 - Amanda and Jonah met me for dinner.
31 - Anniversary of 11 years since Amanda and I started dating.
