In honor of my HS graduating class’s 20th reunion (last weekend):

Lunch today was at the “Decent Deli”, located at 11144 Kenwood Road in Blue Ash.  The deli is close enough to my office to be a decent walk on a decently temperate day.

There it is, decently located behind the Arby's.

The decor is decent – formica-topped tables and decently comfortable chairs.  The place is more-than-decently clean, and when I arrived tables were very quickly cleared from the decent lunch rush that was just ending.

I ordered the lunch special, which is a cup of soup, a half sandwich, and a soft drink.  It was advertised at $8.10, which I found to be a bit overpriced.  It seemed more decently affordable when the waitress told me that a side dish was also included.  My special, the Matzoh ball soup, a half reuben, and potato pancake came very quickly.

As of July 8, I left the employ of Cincinnati Childrens Hospital Medical Center, and began working at a local RHIO called HealthBridge. I’ve known about HealthBridge, as I worked with it almost daily for the past 2 years at CCHMC. However, I’m joining a new venture called the Tri-State Regional Extension Center.

The Tri-State REC will be helping doctors install Electronic Medical Record systems, as well as achieve “Meaningful Use” from ones that they have already installed. It’s a position in which I can make a large impact on the quality of healthcare in Cincinnati and the surrounding area!

Although I’m quite excited to join HealthBridge, I’m leaving a great team of folks behind at CCHMC. They all know why I left, and understand completely (I think!), but it still saddens me to have to leave good people.

One thing that I have to do before I go any further is to state that anything posted to this blog represents MY opinion only, and in no way reflects on the opinion of HealthBridge or the Tri-State Regional Extension Center.

There – that’s done.  Back to my infrequent blogging!

Had a bit of fun over the lunch hour on Friday.  We prepared my colleague’s cube for his arrival back from vacation.  He’s messed with all of our cubes during our respective vacations, so we wanted to get a bit of “gentle” revenge.
