It's been a while.....

Wow! It's been about a year and a half since I've been on here to do anything. A lot has happened in that year and a half. Good things, bad things, and exciting things. Life has happened and I'm just kind of going along with it.

At the moment  I am taking a Business Systems Technology course through TN Technology Center in Pulaski, TN. So far I have earned a General Office Assistant Certificate and I am on the Director's List for having an "A" average. I have also become a Microsoft Office Specialist for Office Word 2007. I am in the process of hopefully becoming certified in Excel, Access, and PowerPoint as well. All I have to do is pass 3 more tests and I'm good to go. I am also on my way to becoming a Medical Administrative Assistant and will either be certified in billing and coding or transcription. I'm trying to do both but I'm not sure if I'm able     (time wise) to do that yet or not. I'm trying to get as much done as I possibly can.

I didn't like school when I was there last time (which was about 15 years ago) so this isn't something that I thought I would ever do, but I'm glad that I've done it. It has allowed me to learn new things and to meet new people. I look forward to going to school and I actually enjoy the work. Don't get me wrong. There are things that frustrate me this time around as well, but I have learned to deal with them and move on.


I still work part-time at our local library here in town as well. Life is very interesting and busy for me right now. I don't have as much time to spend with my family but I just keep telling myself it will slow down a bit in the fall when I'm done with school and then there will be more time.

Well, that's it. That's my first post in a year and a half. Maybe I'll get a chance to stop by and do this again but hopefully a lot sooner than last time.
