The Ark finally lands!

It wasn’t raining when I went to work! In fact, while it wasn’t all that warm and was a bit windier than I liked, it was sunny all day!! This is supposed to last until Saturday evening so, hopefully, I can get the front lawn cut. There’s no hope for the back yard until the lake goes down, though.

I thought about it all last night and then again this morning and decided to go for it. So, I enrolled at Schoolcraft College at lunch. Where are these frat parties, anyway?

I washed the bedding and a load of clothes when I got home from work. It was Friday and I was lazy so I just heated a can of chili for dinner. Both I and the cats regretted it for the rest of the night.

I watched the last half of the second and the whole of the third episodes of the Civil War series (fascinating!). I went to bed around midnight.

    It's just a single class in their continuing education program on Project Management (3 1/2 hour per week class for 10 weeks).

    Regarding your name, look below the box you type your post in. See where it says "Comment as: Select Profile?" Click on the little down tab and pick "Name/Url" Type in AMY and forget the URL part. Then post your comment.

  4. @ GreatPapaFish (Does somebody really call you that?):

    Thanks, I think. But I realize that its a law of diminishing returns. Yes, there are currently 400,000 job openings for a Project Manager in Michigan that require the PMP cert (I checked). But, I know people my age with an MBA who can't get a job.

    This would have made monetary sense when I was in my 30's or even my 40's. But, I am hoping that to give up nearly half the money I've managed to squirrel away since going back full time, I can keep my job until I am 66 or dead (and I don't really care anymore which one it is).

  7. @ Amy (will winter ever end?) Petersen: Sounds like you live in Alberta, Canada. CC can correct me, but I think they have like 10 months of Winter, two weeks of Spring, one month of Summer and two weeks of Fall.
