We're officially Tennesseans now! We got into town Tuesday evening after spending a couple of days on the road (a day and a half, actually). The kids did well, Mercy did well & the cars did well - so all around the trip was a success! We spent the rest of the week in a hotel before closing on the house on Friday & moving in Saturday morning. We're exhausted and are left with a new home full of boxes and much work to do - but glad to be on the other side of the move at this point. My first day at work was on Thursday. I spent both Thursday & Friday in new employee orientation. They basically flooded me with information about LifeWay's history, organization, values, my benefits, etc. On Friday they took us (myself & two other new employees) on an hour and a half walking tour of the LifeWay campus - and we didn't even see everything! That's probably one of my biggest apprehensions at this point - getting lost! LifeWay has 7 or 8 different buildings with over a million square feet of office space! They also trained us on the phone system, LifeWay network & Intranet, and Lotus Notes (emailing, calendaring, documents, etc. system).

We'll post more in the coming days. I just got the computer/DSL hooked up and thought I'd post a quick snippet to let everyone know we made it & are doing fine.
