Moved to Michigan and got older

Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home

Erika and I drove up to Michigan this weekend and started moving into our family’s house on White Lake near where I grew up.  I went to high school near here, and I’m pretty familiar with the rough winters.  On our drive up, we drove through freezing rain and snow - Erika’s first time behind the wheel in inclement weather, since we took both cars up.  I’d wanted to give her an ice-driving training session in a parking lot somewhere, but no time for that!

It’s birthday central around here:

  • November 9 - Joe Sullivan (the guy who taught me how to program)
  • November 10 - me, Don Duncan (my manager at Southern, another former Michigander)
  • November 11 - my much better half Erika, my sister Emily

These people all rock.

And now, if you’ll excuse me, it’s time to go catch up on the hundreds of emails I missed since I took off on Thursday for the moving voyage.  Inbox Zero is going to be especially tough today!
