The East Coast...

As seen by me, in my dreams, as an astronaut on the ISS.

Or maybe by someone who really was on the ISS...

My new job...

So it's nearing the end of my second week of my new job and I can't tell you enough how liberating it is to be your own manager.  I  mean-it's not like I am the President or anything.  I answer to people but no one checks in on me and no one wants a daily update or anything.  No one really manages my tasks, so to speak.  Finally, I am doing something that uses my greatest talents: organization, self-motivation, and public relations.

I started my job at NASA Headquarters in downtown D.C. managing a project called Women@NASA and all of its subsidiaries.  And the social media manager for the Agency left last week so they want me to start taking up some of that void.  I can't believe lil' ol me who avoided Twitter for oh-so-long and started a blog one sleepless night (about hair, no less) is now managing social media for her very own project...

 
Follow me @WomenNASA.

Never thought I would say that...

The Things I Like to Make...

My made up bread:  Feta, Kalamata, and Rosemary Bread.  It turned out a bit denser than I wanted so I will have to play with it.  But it tastes yummy with all the garlic, black pepper, salt, a pinch of sugar, and heaps of fresh rosemary.  I have two days left of working from home and I will miss this.  Oh so much.
