Juggling has begun again.\u00a0 My new classes started yesterday and I’m busy trying to get over the cold<\/span> crappiness<\/span> whatever that I’m suffering from again.\u00a0 I need to keep on top of my classes this semester since I’m planning on picking up a third part way through the semester.\u00a0 I haven’t decided if that makes me crazy or not.\u00a0 Perhaps I should start reading my textbooks rather than the ones that interest me.\u00a0 I just finished Christie Blatchford’s 15 days<\/a> (again) and have moved on to Carol Off’s Ghosts of Medak Pocket<\/a> this week.<\/p>\n

I received my contract renewal offer letter today and have 3 days to decide if I’ll be accepting it.\u00a0 Since my position is a bit in limbo, I think I’m the only one who’s received a job offer with no position title, rate of pay, etc.\u00a0 I need to meet with HR to confirm – if nothing else – that I’ll continue at my same rate of pay until they sort out my (6 months and counting) job reclassification.<\/p>\n

We’ve pretty much decided I’ll be accepting it though.\u00a0 I like the people I work with and it’ll stop me from becoming too isolated while Drew’s away.\u00a0 We did consider my taking a year off to finish my degree – what takes forever part-time is very quick if I were to attend full-time – but decided that with Drew gone I might become too much of a hermit if I wasn’t working and seeing people everyday. We can always revisit my taking time off to finish school when he gets back in Feb ’09.<\/p>\n

At least I’ll get to do fun things at work this week.\u00a0 I’m building a new database with multiple reporting capabilities based on individualized front ends.\u00a0 Each person will have different options for data entry and\/or reporting based on their needs.\u00a0 I’m pretty excited about it.\u00a0 Since I’m not the most experienced database designer out there, I figure it’ll take me a while to get it all sorted out.\u00a0 Tomorrow I’m starting the main design\/mapping phase and am pretty stoked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
