It's been 15 days since my last post...

and some significant things have gone down since then...a hurricane, a road trip across the country in a UHaul, a college-friend reunion, a trip to Orono, a trip to Orlando...15 days closer to our move, 15 days closer to today.  I put Mark on the plane back to Denver last night.  Getting really familiar with BDL airport at this point.  It will be 12 days until we see each other again, but Friday really doesn't count and today's almost over, so it's really like...8 days.  We both see these next 2 weeks as a time for huge productivity at work--I've got so many teacher observations to do and write up, but my biggest project on the table is getting report cards ready for the end of the month.  And since I'll be away during the last 2 weeks in November I need to finish this up by the 16th.  So I'll be on it.  Mark has just reached his one-month milestone at work and is feeling really strong and confident about how things are going and how he's doing so far.  We talk about this all the time, how this is such an incredible opportunity for him to use his wealth of experience gained over 32 years in corporate engineering to help steer this small, young company to the next level.  He believes that his knowledge and experience are truly valued at AirComm.  That's huge. 

Bikram yoga on my afternoon schedule today...a 4:30 class in Hartford.  106 degree room to sweat the trepidation about all this right out of me.  It's really hard to think about much else when you're concentrating so hard on not passing out.   I'm on the 2-week for $20 deal, so I want to make the most of it. 

What a great visit with old friends this past weekend.  Much laughter, possibly too much wine (but at least it was great wine!) and a lovely affirmation of the bonds between us.
