To PDA or not to PDA

I bought a Zire 71 yesterday :-)
I think the upgrade, 72 is due to be released today. I toyed with the idea of waiting and decided to save the $100 and get the older version. My hope is that this will keep me happy until the Treo 610 comes out and the price drops to something that won't make me wet my pants.

The usual stuff....
* The kittens are cats
* I'm learning "Time" for PMP
* I'm 10lbs from my goal :-(
* I cycled 15 miles last night :-)
* My 7 projects release the end of this week

Lost In Translation

My husband said that he thought I was like Charlotte in Lost In Translation. But I don't have a Bob Harris to hang out with.
Apart from that, it's not such a bad comparison.

PMP is going well, Stephanie and I went over Scope Management last night. We did pretty well, and learned a lot just doing questions and checking the explanation of the answers. I'm also only 3 hrs short of the training requirements...it's a pity the 4k extra hours don't make up for that :-)

What a Week!

I'm pooped today!
It's been a whirlwind week. At work I'm currently managing 14 training projects, and this week 7 of them went into final edit and 6 of them had narration voiceovers recorded; 4 on the East coast and 2 here! So there was over 20 hours of voiceover to be scheduled and recorded, I even got to do a small part; Susan, the office manager who needed some help with office software. I'm voice talent, at last!
Wonder if I should send my reel to a local talent agency? Not!

Oh, to work from home

I may get to work from home soon :-D
As part of it's get well plan, the company I am contracted to is consolidating some of it's buildings. As a contractor I am currently squatting in an office, and it seems that non-employees will be the first ones to be moved.
But I must not get too excited....just yet!

PMP is going very slow. I'm learning all about Risk at the moment...it's so dry. I find myself falling asleep while reading - and I thought I had insomniac tendencies; who knew the cure was mandated by PMI?
