Marching orders

I was excited to learn, last week, that all of my company's training this week is in Lindon. Even better I get to sit in on it an learn (hopefully) what I am doing for my new job. It is always good to learn a job before you have to perform that job.

So, once I learn I will go to...Raleigh next. Next week I get to go to Raleigh. If anyone has a favorite restaurant there let me know and maybe I'll get to check it out. The following week I will be in Nashville. I am sure that I will get to visit the Grand Ole Opry. One of my co-workers has told me that this is her must visit for this trip.

The only problem with these travels is that I have a wedding I need to attend in San Diego the weekend between the two trips. The wedding has been scheduled for only 2-3 years now. So, I don't exactly feel like I can tell my friend that I can no longer come.

Enter blessing number one. Funds in my life are a little tight right now and I was planning to take off the Friday before the wedding and drive with friends to save $. I can't leave Raleigh until Friday afternoon so that no longer works. And the blessing is...it saves my company $300+ for me to fly to San Diego Friday (instead of home to Salt Lake) and then fly from San Diego to Nashville. So, my travel plans now include to and from the wedding. I just have to get the rental car and hotel. Yeah!!

Woo! Flying to happy places on the company dime is always good.
