to the four corners of the earth...

Well, at least the far edges of the Northern hemisphere.

I haven't blogged in a long time. There have been many changes in the last few weeks, very large ones, and things have been kinda crazy. I started a new job this last week, which is very challenging and very stressful while I absorb all the nuances and basics behind this very new industry that I'm in. But the best part is that I finally, for the first time in my life, feel that I have a real job where I'm responsible for things and am an integral part of a team and company. I feel that my brain is beginning to slowly start to move again, rather creakingly but very comforting to me to feel that I am being challenged to use my brain instead of sitting still and stagnating.

The other bits of news is that my middle sister has jetted off to the U.K. indefinitely. We do have family there, and England has always been a family trip for us, so for her to live there and expand her experience there beyond the familial obligations is fantastic. Beer Farmer and I will be following her in the fall to get to see my grandmother who was unable to come to our wedding last year, and the rest of my dad's family. This is the first time that Beer Farmer will have been to England (no, Heathrow for a few hours does not count), let alone with me, so I am extremely excited as this will be pushing the usual experiences in England for me also.

This year is going to be so interesting for me. In fact, it's started out rather well. Lets hope it continues this way.
