Having moved south from NH in June 2008, this blog lists things I've encountered, struggles my family has faced, joys, surprises and all things new now that we are in NC.

Saw my first UNC game last night
Men's tar heel basketball against the Maryland Terrapins. UNC won, however some argued their defense could have been better. I just enjoyed the whole scene with die-hard fans whoppin' and hollerin' "TAR" .... "HEEEEELS" and not to mention the whole "sea" of baby blue. Never saw this spirit in NH at KSC. (Go Owls?)
Friday Feb. 6th:
Ok, started that post didn't get very far. This has been a hard week, we lost two guys in our department, both with young kids. That's a total of four since november, pretty much everyone that was local to RTP are gone (in my group anyway). Makes for quiet "interaction" from co-workers. Just myself and a contractor who works from home most days.
Luckily, my HTH (home town honey) is meeting me for lunch. Liz is still lovin' London, she enjoys the hub-bub of a capital city and the vibe of living there. Apparently she has been referred to as "love" by her MP, which I believe is just a british term ... I shouldn't worry, just like I don't worry that Lucie calls everyone Hon or Sweetie ...
Lucie has been asked to come interview for a job, part time, but her getting out and seeing folks should be good. We are getting more estimates for the pool (hey someone has to help out the local economy).
Rachel get's to compete in Fayetteville tomorrow. We haven't traveled there yet, I think besides flying through Charlotte once, that this will be the furthest south we've traveled in NC.
Our friends are starting to talk about visiting ... apparently the snow is making everyone think of warmer climes. It was cold last night, but should hit 50 today and 65 tomorrow ... not bad for Feb. 6th.
Amen to this!
