I've accepted a research position starting in January and am hugely excited about the opportunity. However, this position is in another town and so move we must.
Moving has provided its own combination of bitter and sweet. On one hand, many of the unfinished projects in our house are getting wrapped up and the place has really never looked better. However, on the less happy side, I love our friends here and will miss them terribly when we move.
Work has had its own combinations of ups and downs. I have a new office (with a window!) and a new lab that is significantly prettier than the previous facilities. Unfortunately, these positive changes do little to offset the sadness. Over the weekend, my closest co-worker and work-friend passed away due to complications of cancer. As I left work yesterday, I noticed that someone had placed a single flower by his office door.
This post seems without a proper closing paragraph, but I'm afraid I'm not sure how to finish it.
