Class of 94 in the house! Yes, I’m dating myself. Slowly getting ourselves into a new routine, but I think that routine will mean that the Sunday evening post will now go up at almost, or just after, midnight, east coast time, as we spend Sunday evenings doing “family” stuff, so I won’t be on my computer until after SP is in bed. Blogging The purpose of these two goals is, yes, to grow myread more…
Shocker #1 – This post is going up ON TIME. Shocker #2 – The reason my posts have been late for the last week (and why my life is suddenly very crazy) is that there is now a small person living in my house. I cannot tell you much about Small Person (SP) other than that she is a girl and is about 9.5 years old, and is a foster child. There are legal limits, youread more…
You may have noticed that I appear to have lost all of my time management skills. It certainly feels that way to me, even though I know exactly how crazy life has been here, and that I am, in fact, managing to get a lot of things done every day, including all the actually necessary and important items. I love blogging, but truth be told, since it is not how I pay my bills, nor howread more…
It has been a crazy, crazy week. I am glad to officially no longer be employed so that I can be pretty lazy this next week and not feel guilty about it. Not that I’m going to get to be that lazy, but I’m going to try. Blogging The purpose of these two goals is, yes, to grow my blogs, but also to support and highlight blogs and bloggers I enjoy. Just like I willread more…
One of the main points of the training I went through this last week was networking with a purpose. You would think I would be good at this, and I am, but only half way. I love meeting new people. I love making new connections that could become friends. And I enjoy talking to people about what they do and what they want to do. What I am not good at is the “with a purpose”read more…
Life has gone crazy on us (in a good way). With luck, I’ll be able to get a real post up late tonight.
This is officially my last week of work. I will be “at work” more often this week than I was last week (when I showed up for a pot luck), but not much more. Today I met with my boss to go over the final transition plan, and Friday morning I’ll be going in for bagels and to turn in my badge, keys, credit card and remote access key fob. Plus, I’ll officially say goodbye toread more…
Once again this is going up late, though not as late as last week. I had meant for it to go up earlier, but Junebug had to stay overnight at the vet’s, and we weren’t able to go pick her up until after 3pm today. But as always, it took us over an hour to go, hear from the vet that she still can’t really be diagnosed (because she remains a medical mystery). During the day,read more…
I know that I promised that I would start reading blogs more and commenting more while on administrative leave. I lied. I did not mean to lie, but I lied. I spent a full week barely looking up from my books while studying for my certification test. And next week, I have a 2 day training with the career counseling service my former company is paying for as part of my severance. And then after theread more…
1) I passed my test yesterday. I am now an APICS Certified Supply Chain Professionl (CSCP). Thank you everyone for your good wishes. 2) I had meant to have a post up today. I really did. But this was my first non-studying day in over a week, and it somehow got filled with productive things like grocery shopping, mowing the lawn, and laundry. 3) I don’t mind doing laundry- the washing and the drying part becauseread more…
