Still waiting to hear where my team will be moved to.

Hello all,

A few days ago my team was told we will be moved off of the Sprint Campus. I have been here since 2001... wow it has been that long. It is strange to think of the campus as "home", but it has grown on me. I take a walk every day around the campus with a couple of friends. It is a little over a mile and it does us all some good to get out of the office for a while and just enjoy the day. I will miss it when we leave. I am sure there will be plenty of sidewalks to walk, but I will miss seeing the usual things that have made this campus my home away from home.

For almost a year I have been sitting in someone else's desk other than my own. I know it sounds strange, and it is. While I was on the OMS team, I lived in the testing lab. I went directly there every day and very rarely went to the fifth floor to do anything at my desk. After I was transferred back to SODS, I have been working out of someone else's desk four days a week and working out of a telecommuters cube that fifth day. So today I am sitting at my desk and looking at my pictures and remembering my kids when they were just babies. Wow... My daughter was small at one time. Zac was even smaller. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful family.

The last time I was at my desk, I moved a picture that my wife took of my mom, dad and I at Arrowhead stadium a few years ago. Jen and I bought four tickets to a Chief's / Steelers game. It was my dad's first NFL game he had seen in person. I remember watching my dad's face change when he could see the field for the first time. I am sure he looked just like me when Jen brought me to my first game. That picture now stands head of all of the other pictures -- reminding me that I should never put things off for tomorrow.
