Elliott’s Random Musings

Today was one of those interesting kinds of days. I woke up this morning, fully clothed, laying backwards in the bed in front of my laptop working on a DVD project for Kellie when my alarm went off.

Work was a bit less weird. We have a new phone system for one of our stores, and I’ve been working on programming the phones and extensions into the system. This will be my first IP phone deployment that I’ve been personally involved with.

Afterwords, I went to Applebee’s with some family to watch the Wichita State NIT game against Alabama. I want to say congratulations to the Shockers on their 66-57 victory!

I also was able to interact with my daughter via Skype tonight. I am really glad she has taken to seeing me on a monitor so well.

No real big personal thoughts tonight, other than I’m looking forward to getting back home this weekend.

So, approximately 30 days have passed being at my new job. I have really enjoyed it so far as I now work with several kinds of technology: computers, servers, network infrastructure, phone systems, wireless phones, and a few other small things.

My being away from home hasn’t been the easiest thing in the world for me, but I know it has been really difficult on Kellie and Hannah. At least Hannah has taken really well to Skype, so I can interact with my daughter visually.

My business is effectively at a standstill for the moment, as I still do not have a routine that I would call “normal.”

So long, and I hope my next post won’t take so long.
