Transition: A New Beginning

Transitions are sometimes scary, usually disruptive, and always exciting for me. First and foremost, my final day at Meijer went as smoothly as I expected it to. Saying goodbye to a lot of friendly faces was rather tough, but I will certainly be back to visit them from time to time, so not all is lost.

With Meijer behind me, I set out to enjoy this weekend. I spent most of yesterday at the Roche de Boeuf Festival in downtown Waterville. I have not attended this festival in ten years, and with all the fond memories of it that I have as a kid, it was quite a shock to see the festival today. It's much smaller and more pared down from what I remember. Still, with very decent weather and a rather well-behaved pooch (!?), I had a decent way to spend a Saturday morning.

Today is all about the relaxation: I cleaned and organized my room for the week, gathered my work supplies for tomorrow, and I'm spending the remainder of the day playing video games, walking Elli, and perhaps getting some ice cream in BG later on.

And tomorrow, of course, I start at CRI. Simply awesome.
