In country - getting down to business

With Johnnie's return to the US, the next few weeks will be intensive focus on work for me. I have a lot to learn as well as a lot to organize to get my team up to fully functioning. My position has been vacant for awhile and my predecessor had a totally different style and approach to the job. In between, another lady was a temporary manager of the team and did what she could to get some structure in place and processes going. It is going to definitely be a challenge and will require some long hours at the office and quite a bit of travel between Italy sites. Probably good in a way that Johnnie is not here since I will not have much time for home life. It also means my sightseeing and investigating the wonders of the area will be postponed until he returns and can share in those with me. Actually I might take in a few museums while he is gone since that is not his thing. About 20 min. in a museum is his limit! Ha!

Before I sign off for the night, I want to publicly give praise to the Lord God of all Creation. He has made all things and makes all things possible. He does care about each of his creations and has especially blessed me and Johnnie with this wonderful experience. I know some of you may not believe all that I have said, or you maybe unsure of whether God pays attention to you and your life. I can assure you he does!
