A new job

I think most people know this news, but it's not really official until it's on the blog, so...I have a new job.  It's a permanent position with a non-profit called LifeCenter Northwest. They, um, we are the organ procurement organization for Washington, N. Idaho, Montana and Alaska.  An organ procurement organization, or OPO for those in the know, facilitates the organ donation process.  You might not realize that it's a process that requires facilitation but in fact it does and quite a bit of it, as I am learning.

The organization is consists approximately 100 people and does about $25 million in revenue.  I am the vice president of finance and administration, supporting the finance, accounting and IT departments.  Yes, you read that right.  IT.  Scary, I know.

Today was my 3rd day on the job and it's going so, so well.  I am thrilled. (And tired.)

There have been so many "first day of school" pics on Facebook and I thought it'd be fun for me to take a "first day at LifeCenter" pic holding my very own chalkboard to include with this post.  But, I didn't make that happen so instead you'll have to settle for completely unrelated but very cute pics of the kids.  I am sure you're not too disappointed.
