January: Fin

Today being the last day of the first month, here's some reflection:  

The highlight of the month was undoubtedly Geoana and her debate partner winning the state championship, the first ever for their high school.  A huge "thank you" to everyone who sent congratulatory messages via social media.  

We survived the polar vortex.  Geoana also didn't mind spending yesterday home from school (the district cancelled all school that day due to the safety issue of children waiting for the bus in rural areas with wind chills well below zero).  Still not as difficult as our Minnesota/Mayo Clinic trip a few Januarys ago when the wind chills hit about 30 below. 

 

Had lunch with a colleague today.  When we walked outside afterward, he remarked: "30 sure beats zero."  I expressed agreement.  

Who would have known this erstwhile Arizona desert rat would be satisfied with a daily high of 30 degrees?  

Life continues to be an adventure...
