It's all OK!

Day four in the Big Brother house...

Actually day four was, compared to the other three days, relatively quiet.  Technology was kind to me, the computer worked, the two screens worked, the Wi-Fi worked, the phone worked (although nobody called!), the printer worked.  The good luck Feng Shui Crystal, that I was given for a present for my new office and hung up yesterday, is obviously working. (I should have hung that up on Monday!!)

Everything's working, except me...

I still have some office furniture to acquire, but that can wait for another day.  At the moment I have no filing cabinet, but that's OK 'cos I have nothing to file.  I have no stationary cabinet, but that's OK 'cos I have no stationary.  My list of things to fit this office out with is getting longer.  My co-researcher is coming today to give me a run through of all the systems before I go to London for two weeks training.  Pre-training training!  (I have no chair for her to sit on, but that's OK...oh wait!)   She was here with me a couple of day ago and remarked on the lovely view of the mountains that I have from my 'office' window.  I see that view every day, and sometimes, as you know, walk the tracks in the forest up there in the mountains, but I never really looked at the view until she pointed it out.  It really is lovely, and at the moment the sun is shining on the neat green fields that I can see over the rooftops, and there are some sheep grazing and bales of hay stacked up in another field.  The top of one of the mountains is covered with a cloud which looks like a woolly blanket keeping it warm, I can just see the trees from the forest peeping out from underneath it.  I'm looking forward to working here.

I'm also looking forward to spending two weeks in London.  I know I'll be busy during the day, melting my brain with all the new systems, but I will have lots of evenings to fill.  I have lots of family to see too, so I won't miss home too much, it will be like home from home.

Time for coffee!

The last place I worked we took turns making the coffee, now it's always my turn!  But I suppose the up side of that is that I only have one cup to make, instead of two...

By the way, I figured out what the two screens are for.  Stereo YouTube!!

And in other news, I joined a dance class last night, but that's for another day...
