So it appears that I did, in fact, turn 35 today. And the world did not, in fact, end. Surprising, I know. And I suppose you are all wondering how I celebrated the big day. Well, first off was Bethmas Eve dinner. Since I live in the boonies and I didn’t want to drive all the way […]
Unlike a typical year, I haven’t been yelling from the rooftops about my upcoming birthday. OK, I’ve done some yelling from some rooftops, but from much fewer rooftops that usual. I guess I’ve been a little less excited because this year I’m turning the big 3-5. How is that even possible? I certainly don’t *feel* […]
Over the holiday season, I received something awesome ((Special thanks to the Dr. Erika Delivery Service, who brought me said certificate, which I had delivered to her place south of the border because I was too cheap to pay for the “international shipping” costs to have it sent directly to me in Canada.)). An ordination […]
In the last few weeks, I’ve heard a lot of people lamenting how terrible 2011 has been. Just last night when I was out for dinner, I overheard the people at the next table describing 2011 as a “black cloud” and hoping that 2012 will bring some better luck. And I do know some people […]
Today I got a most excellent email informing me that my application for the Credentialed Evaluator designation was successful! This designation is bestowed by the Canadian Evaluation Society on those who can demonstrate that they possess the skills of a competent, ethical, and awesome evaluator. In addition to demonstrating my awesomeness, this designation also allows […]
I’m feeling in a creative mood, so I’m going to try to set my 2012 goals ((See goals from 2010 and 2011.)) by making them all have something to do with 12 or multiples of 12. I’m very aware that I’m going to be hellabusy in 2012 with that whole school thing starting, so I’m trying to set […]
Being that it is the end of the year, I figured that I should see how I did on my 2011 goals. Like last year, I set a bunch of goals at the start of the year and then promptly forgot what they were. Because I’m awesome like that. So let’s see how I did […]
So last week I had a bit of a panic about this whole MBA thing. Thoughts like “What am I getting myself into?” were followed up by “I’m getting in waaaay over my head!” and “You know what would be a lot easier than doing this? Not doing this.” And then I realized that I […]
As I mentioned a little while ago, last week and this week at work are jammed packed. I have so many meetings that my meetings have meetings! Happily, though, I’m in the home stretch – only two more workdays in 2011! The lion’s share of the webinars/meetings/workshops are done too – I have one meeting […]
For the second year running, I’ve made it to the finals of Cath’s blog’s Comment of the Year competition! Basically, she picks the top comments from her blog over the past year and then lets her readers vote on the overall winner. I think you know what to do.
