10:20am "Behold I set before you this day, a blessing and a curse.  A blessing if ye obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you this day.  And a curse if ye will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known".                                                                                    ---- Deuteronomy 11:26-28

6:50am My first day of work at Taylor & Francis.  Matt is picking me up in 20 minutes and then we are heading to the train station.  It will be an interesting experience riding the train to work every day.  Ready to go!

6:48am The Phillies end the first half of the season in first place in NL East at 53-42, a half game ahead of the Braves.  There were some positives and some negatives but being in first place is a miracle unto itself.  We are now in the All-Star break.  The season resumes on Friday.
6:46am Yesterday we had a real nice birthday/grad party at my sister's house.  Always great hanging out with my wonderful family!  😎
10:50am Feeling good about things right now.  I start my new job on Monday and I am very excited about it.  Hopefully this will be the last time I will have to do job hunting.  The last few years have been difficult with all the downsizing and offshoring, which affects many people globally.  It is tough navigating your career with all that going on.  It's a blessing to have a good job or really just a job at all.  We all try to get a job that is fairly close to home, has good benefits and pays well.  And one that we enjoy doing.  I feel that this new job fits that bill.  I know many friends have struggled in this environment and I continue to pray that all of them find something that they enjoy.  Most already have, others are still looking.  We must keep the faith and work hard.  Life usually has a way of working out.                               ...
