Training is over and tomorrow is the big day!

Well, I went through three days of intensive training. Eight hours during the day and an additional 3-5 hours of homework at night. My "final exam" that the trainers give (Not PMI) went frightenly well. Perhaps it's premature to recommend the training organization, but props go out to Velociteach. I think I'm prepared, but there is only one way of knowing and that doesn't happen until tomorrow morning.

Another thing that I need to add here is this: My wife is awesome! While away, she took care of everything around the house and even had the added bonus of two sick children. My youngest had a cold and was out of school early in the week and then my oldest got sick on Thursday night. So, while taking care of runny noses and 101 degree temps, she had no support from me since I was away. She even had the energy to give me encouragement over the phone when I called in the evening. What's more, on Thursday, I started feeling dreadful myself, so now she's taking care of me as I continue to try to study while being sick. Thanks Tina! I love you!

Big week professionally!

Well, for those of you who care, this is a large week for me as I will be traveling to Raleigh to receive training for the PMP Exam. For those who don't know, PMP stands for Project Management Professional. Like most things in the real world, if I pass the exam and get the PMP Certification, it will look really good on my business card but doesn't necessarily make me a better, or smarter person. Although I do hope to learn a few things.

Writer's, er, Blogger's Block: Creating a blog

What do you call it? You need a catchy name. I’ve beat around quite a few and I’m still not sure I have a decent one. Like writer's block though, analysis was leading to paralysis, so I’m here typing.

What is the content? Surely it should be something that I would like to read. So what is it I like to read? Well you can visit the links on the side to get an idea.
