I started a new, temporary position at work today. I was approached by my boss last week to see if I wanted to take the opportunity for a 4 month special assignment. Of course I took it. I would be stupid not to. I am down on the escalation line -- sort of like an assist line, but I now quote specialty vehicles such as motorcycles, boats, ATV's and such.. and then umbrella policies and other specialty policies that I never had to worry about before. So, today is my first day. I'm only here until 2:30 PM because my son's graduation is tonight. It's kind of a good thing.. moving into this new position slowly. I freaked out at first.. forgot everything I learned last week when the first phone call came in. But now I've slowed down and had a chance to catch my breath and it's all good. I'm going to break now and then only an hour left!

By the way.. that Red Wings game was intense and I was so not thrilled with the outcome - especially since we HAD the cup almost in our hands until the last 34 seconds of the game! Who think it will end at game 6? and who thinks we'll be back in Detroit for game 7? Let me know your thoughts.
