The Shadow knows

I thought it was time for an update on what's been going on with me. I suppose I will start with work and from there just say whatever comes to my head.

We are finally moved into the new office! It was a very long and difficult journey to get there, but we did it. I spent the past several weeks emptying cabinets, sorting through folders, packing boxes, transporting machines, setting up machines, and transporting various items, and also physically moving stuff. It was a very tiring couple of weeks. The new office looks great and everything is going well. The commute is longer...15 minutes more. It's okay though. I am thankful that I have a job, I enjoy working there, I have wonderful bosses, and I feel like I am contributing. I am still preparing for hopeful upcoming interviews for the next school year. I'm pretty confident, but I also feel like a guppy about to dive into the ocean. Growing up, what can you do?

The good thing about work is I have been able to listen to various Podcast. I have downloaded several sermons from Kairos, Brentwood Baptist, John MacArthur, and Timothy Keller. They have been great to listen to and it keeps my mind occupied while I'm doing work that at times...doesn't challenge my brain. I have also started listening to Old Time Radio programs such as, "The Shadow." They are very exciting. It's funny because there were some episodes where I was like, "How is he going to get out of this?!?" It's funny because you know he is going to get out of it and that everything is going to turn out okay. It's almost the same feeling I get when I watch a Rocky movie and watch him fight. I mean, Rocky is going to win. We all know that. So why get worried?

That was a nice little tangent. In other news, the Lemons family has started on Nutrisystem! So far I have lost 8 pounds! I don't think I'm losing the weight off my body. I think it is just re-distributing itself. The food is pretty good. Breakfasts are my favorite. Dinner is more misses than hits. Lunch is okay. I feel like I am eating ALL THE TIME though. The human body is amazing. The good thing from this all is I feel that I am already learning how to eat healthy. Even though I would like to have some dark chocolate ice cream poured on top of a Hardees thickburger. Don't judge me!

I best be going now. I hope you all have a great rest of the day!
