I Feel Like I've Hit the Lottery!!

Today was spectacular! I keep wondering what I've done to deserve this!!?? I arrived in the office about 6:30 A.M. and started getting things organized. A little while later the office secretary arrived. Right away she brought me supplies and made a few phone calls to get my office computer and phone hooked up. I'm really getting the "royal" treatment here and I'm just not accustomed to that! But...it sure is nice.

Today at nine was an all-day meeting with the Execs I'm supporting and I loved that too! They already know me and so one by one they walked in and greeted me with a hearty welcome and said it was good to have me back. It's nice to have that kind of rapport with the people I will be working for. In fact, I will be reporting to multiple bosses: four VP's and at least one Sr. VP (possibly two) and that suits me just fine!!

I ran into a few old colleagues today and they jumped up and down when they saw me. Well...that might be a tiny exaggeration, but at least that's how it felt. What a warm reception I got!! Wow! I think they've actually missed me!

Even the commute was awesome.Three metro stops and I was there. How easy is that??? Although I still did a lot of walking today. The metro was about two blocks from the hotel and the meeting was in another building too. With all that walking, my poor little piggy toes hurt! One thing I forgot to bring from home are my cute little flat black shoes, so I will definitely be buying me a new pair. These crazy heels have just got to go! I'm way too old for this! But, it's a small price to pay actually... It's g-r-e-a-a-t to be home!! JUST GREAT!
