Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yay for the new business digs, ND!
Boo for the mold, Zen. But at least you know it's there now.
Today I discovered that the music player on my computer will pause if I place or get a call on my cell phone. I like it when software does something nifty and unexpected.
hooray ND! that;s a big move
You know what hurts all out of proportion to the size of the injury? A cat's claw piercing a thumbnail. I'm gonna have to stick to wand toys and throwing things from a distance.
So, I'm thinking about going back to school for my Master's. I'm just not sure what I want to study. My father had suggested getting my MBA since I have a Bachelor's in Business Administration. But looking at various programs, I'm just not jumping at the idea of more accounting type classes. I think I have that concept down and I have a lot of experience. Right now, I'm looking at a program at Colorado State University for Project Management. I'm still open to other ideas and have scheduled time to talk with a couple of folks at work that have mentored me in the past.
I'm both excited and terrified at the idea. But since I started researching I haven't been able to let go of the general idea. I'm crazy. Right? I'm 48. I'm still paying off my student loans from my bachelor's .
Suzi, not crazy! I'm halfway through my second Masters right now and working one slow class at a time through the program, and I'm 41. I won't be done for two more years. Never too late for more education!
Suzi, I'm sure whatever you land on, you'll be splendid.
Suzi, that sounds fantastic to me! Go for it. Project Management is a useful field that transfers well, too.

aurelia, you're up to date on tetanus shots, right?
Suzi, I'd look at options that are not going to put you in more debt unless you are looking at a career change that might increase earnings.
I tend to be very debt shy and retirement savings obsessed though, so consider that.
Suzi, I took an online project management course, and I feel like it was useful.
Zenkitty, I hope that's the end of in-house mold problems.
I have a Misfit, and I tell it when I'm going to bed. It does seem to do a decent job tracking sleep, but then once I'm going to bed, I'm usually not reading or whatnot. If it tracked my weekend fanfic reading as sleep, that would be a problem. A possibly hilarious problem. Anyway, I have a mile round trip from parking to my office, so that nets me a lot of steps. I have a large three-library complex I can walk the length of, even when the weather's not great. So on office days, I can usually get 3/4s of the way through my 10,000 steps without much bother. If I go out to lunch that'll knock me right past. On non-office days I usually end up on my exercise bike, watching tv and doggedly knocking off the points.

Yeah, my Masters immediately got me a $20K raise, so I'm on track to finish paying it off in 10 years, but the loan payments have been kind of a bitch.
