Seems like I should update this blog.
I hate reading blog posts that are essentially “I never update this anymore, I will start doing it more”. It’s right up there with promises to start exercising.
I do not plan to update this blog more, in fact, I currently plan to update it less.
Why? I’ll tell you why. Life is good.
Shelly and I are expecting a baby boy in about 5 weeks. We are very excited. We plan to name him Blake David Powell.
Her due date is June 16th, but she feels like it will be early (read: She would not be unhappy to be early).
But that’s not all.
I have accepted a job with American Water, as a Linux System Administrator. While I will miss my customers and coworkers with my current employer, I am really looking forward to the next chapter in my career.
I am very interested to go to work on a large installation, and I will have that opportunity now. Very happy.
Also this week, I closed on selling my house.
I never lived anywhere as long as I lived in my house, and while I will always have fond memories of that place, I am happy to be moving on.
Shelly and I are currently looking into selling her house, and buying one of our own, but honestly, the baby is taking center stage at the moment, so it’s hard to say when that will happen.
All of these changes are good, and all of them stressful.
I suppose I can’t ask for more than that.
Happy living.
Congratulations Nathan! I am glad to hear things are going well for you with the family and in your career. :-)
Thanks Andy! Hope MI is treating you guys well!
Congratulations Nate, that’s so exciting! Best of luck in your new job. You’ve got to at least do an obligatory photo post once the baby comes. Glad to hear life is good. Take care and best wishes as you welcome your baby boy.
Wow! You’re having a kid! That’s great. I’m glad to hear things are working out well for you.
Baby Baby where are you??????? Looking forward to seeing the family and you Nate!
