I took a long nap this past Sunday afternoon, and I mean a LONG one… about 6 hours I think. Because of this I wasn’t able to sleep on Sunday night much at all, so I decided that I would go to our old building and pick up some tools and other things that I wanted to move to the new building.
We’ve been operating at our new facility for 8 weeks now, and I’ve pretty much gotten a feel for the new surroundings and mindset that is part of our new space, and so I was surprised to be feeling almost homesick as I walked the halls of the building that I used to work in.Â
I’m not really sure what caused that, but I think that most of it boils down to familiarity. I’ve been in that building since my sophomore year in high school (12 years ago). I’ve seen countless lives changed during that time, and it has truly been an awesome experience to be a part of that. Plus, I really haven’t given myself time to process this whole transition on a personal level until now when things have calmed down a good bit.
Do I miss the old building? A little, for now. Would I go back? No way, man. :-) I’ve had so many good learning experiences during this transition. I wish I would have started blogging about 6 months ago!
