Back on the road

Sep 23,

Tonight I am back “on the road” for work. Heading to the UK and Germany for 1 week to see 3 of our plants and the team. It should be a an equally great and exhausting week.



The finger

Sep 23,

This Wednesday my right index finger decided to get swollen for some unknown reason. That made for a very interesting (and unproductive) Thursday as I was dealing with it, and getting an x-ray to confirm it was not broken. It has been painful, and annoying, and inconvenient. And I was worried that would prevent me from traveling, but I think the medicine they gave me is starting to kick in. Let’s hope for a good trip.



Isabel’s family

Sep 23,

Isabel got engaged, so her family went to Boulder this weekend and they sent us a couple of pictures with my Sofia. She looked all happy and we are happy they included her. 




Fenway Park

Sep 21, 

Today I went to the famous Fenway Park for the first time. My new neighbor invited me to go for a fundraiser, and I jumped at the opportunity to go, do something different, and meet a few new people. I am glad I went. I had a good time. 







Wednesday game

Sep 20,

Today’s game was in Brookline. Took me a while to get to that part of town, and finding the field itself was tricky, but I made it there eventually.

3 months

Sep 17,

Today is exactly 3 months since we made the long drive to move from Cincinnati to Boston. By now the house is fully setup, and we are starting to get into a routine, but the most important part will take more time than that - making friends and feeling like we truly belong around here.

10 miles

Sep 17,

Today I completed my 10 mile run on the way to the Queen Bee Half in a few weeks. The weather was perfect for running - cooler, dry, and sunny, but I still could not pick up the pace. It was a slow one. I have two more half marathons to get to a good round number of 20, but I think after that I will be hanging up my long distance shoes.
