First day

I promise not to do a daily blow by blow of my new job, but...

It was my first day. Doesn't that justify a little attention?

It was a good day. Enough said? Pretty much. But I tend to be a bit more long winded than that. It still feels very comfortable. I felt welcomed. I am only a smidgen overwhelmed...not even overwhelmed, that's the wrong word. I feel behind. I am used to knowing who, what, when and where...and even how. I'm used to people knowing me...though I think I can enjoy some anonymity for awhile. I did get a surprising big hug from a nurse while touring...she had been my supervisor many years ago.

The work looks manageable. It is still in flux. They have made leaps and bounds from what I understand, but there is more they want to do. It takes time.

There were lots of surprises, not bad ones...just logistics.

I was pleasantly surprised about my drive. I took a different route each direction and traffic wasn't bad...not what I expected at all. Generally, everything was so much smaller than what I was used to. Maybe I can be happy being a big (medium?) fish in a small pond.

You have always been a big fish, now the pond is a bit smaller but you'll still runs rings around them all.
