It's official

I got a call today from my former employer, Jacobs. I worked with them in Conshohocken and Lancaster. Turns out that there's an opening in Indianapolis, so we're moving there. I start work on Wednesday. Thought I'd get this blog cranked back up again so everybody knows what's up and can also check out a bunch of recent photos. There has been, as you can imagine, quite a bit going on here in Pittsburgh. I'm certainly going to miss this place a lot. I was really hoping it would be more than just a year, but such is life. We moved in Memorial Day last year and will likely be out of here by the beginning of August.

First piece of big news (the job is a secondary piece) is that we went for an ultrasound last week and found out that we're having a boy! I'm quite excited. I need to make sure to buy some Pitt-appropriate clothing before we leave. They checked everything they could in the ultrasound and so far, so good. We are narrowing down names and may have one very soon.

Second piece of news is the job bit I suppose. I start next Wednesday and will be in a hotel for a bit. Maria will stop working on July 7th or thereabouts. (She's been working as a dental assistant in case you were unawares). She'll join me in Indy for a week to find a place to rent for a year. The housing there is relatively cheap, so after a year we are hoping to build a house or buy a place outside of the city. Possibly in town if we find something worthwhile. I'm very curious to see what Indy is like.

Third piece ... finished the MS150 charity ride this past weekend. Ride to the Lake, no, Escape to the Lake. 86-odd miles the first day, 60-some the next. My summary of that is a whole 'nother post.
