Whew!

Okay, school has started for me as well as the kids, so I'm going to take a few minutes to say hi!

I have three classes: Research methods (which right now is more about research methodology and evaluating research papers, so that's good!) Information Resources Development, and Project management. I like all the classes, but they are pretty intense. I think I might like to get a copy of Microsoft Project for managing projects, I viewed the demo online, and I can see so many uses for it.

So I work all day, spend about 4-6 hours after work on homework, and almost all day on my 2 days off. I have very little free time, but have December 14 circled on my calendar.

We did get invited to the "Best in the West Rib Cook-Off" on Sunday. You can buy seats at a table, and you can stay from noon to 9 p.m., all you can eat and drink, and you can come and go to the craft area. This way you don't have to go to each individual booth, stand in line, and pay for a rib sampler. Which, in all honesty is 2$ per bone, so a sampler of 3 bones is 6 bucks. If you want to try the 50 or so competitors, it can get pricey. Plus sides and beverages. So buying a seat at a table is alos pricey, but you get a place to sit with your friends, some wait service for beverages, etc., and we're right next to the entertainment. This time the band is Loverboy! The 80's rock!

Well, I'll see when I can take a couple of minutes to post later in the week.

Wow, you sound WAY busy! You hardly have time to breathe!
Your Sunday rib cook off sounds great. That will be a nice getaway from your hectic schedule. The 80's do rock! We have an 80's station on the tv today and tried to get the house organized pretty much all day today. Fun to hear the 80's song's as we worked!! Enjoy Loverboy!
