All of last week I kept thinking, I could write a post about
this. And all week I decided to do something else instead (usually veg out in
front of the TV for 30 minutes). So, I’ve decided to play a little high-low and
hit all the things I considered devoting a full post to.
High: I got a new job! I have a general policy not to talk
shop on social media, so I'll stick to the basic facts:
- New company is Orbitz.
- New role is supporting the CFO and President of Orbitz for Business.
- First day is June 23.
Low: We finally made the tough decision to quite battling to
save our linden tree and had it removed last Wednesday. We got three opinions
and while two thought we could keep it for awhile (awhile being anywhere from a
few months to a few years), all agreed it would have to come down. Given its
proximity to the power lines, we decided to take it out on our terms instead of
dealing with its removal after a storm took it out (along with power to our
house and our neighbors).
High: Lainey is slowly learning all the words to "Let
It Go" from Frozen. She sings it
softly and seriously and makes up every 10th word. Melt. My. Heart. Expect a
video once she learns all the words.
Low: Mark found out Friday that he had to fly to San
Francisco this afternoon. It kind of put a dark cloud over the weekend. He was particularly
grouchy about it, because of Memorial Day. And while I never look forward to his
traveling, Lainey’s been really defiant in the mornings lately, so I’m REALLY
dreading doing the morning routine solo tomorrow. At least I don’t have to
worry about being late to work. What are they gonna’ do? Fire me?
High: We have new neighbors behind us. Bye-bye chickens! We
met the husband and wife on Saturday. They have two little girls, one almost
five, the other almost three, so Lainey may have a new playmate. They're doing
work on the house and don't move in for another three weeks, but we're feeling
optimistic that this family will be a major upgrade.
I’ll end on a high and hope for many more this week!
