Hmmm,
Ihave been up to quite a bit lately. The wedding plans are in full force and seven months from now, I will be among the married. Last week, my fiancee, Suzanne, met me realtives on my mother's side. We all met down in Gulf Shores, Alabama for the week. To put it bluntly, me family has changed in ways that were not good and made for an interesting week. However, I was glad that Suzanne got to finally meet my family.

Yea, I think my fiancee understands me better as well. Now we are down to my father's side of the family. As far as I know, that visit might go better.

Sorry I've been so incomunicoado,
Work was hetic from the time I got back from Ikasucon . . . well it still can be hetic but it's been slowing down.
I'm supposed to graduate in December, So I'm conducting my job search for full time employement. If you guys know of anyone looking for a good IT person, for Database or Sysadmin type stuff that has room to grow and is willing and eager for training to acclimate to their culture Let me know.
So there's work upto and past 30hrs a week,
Then there are 6 credit hours of Classes and their HW(one is technically a graduate level course)
And then there's the Job search. . . which I've been told is a full time job in itself. . . and I'm believing it.
And of course there is Menath   who has been very supportive and understanding about my needs to spend time with him and with my freinds through all of this. Don't think I could have handled this batch of stress w/o him

Job searching sucks big time, and it looks like I may be throwing myself into that lion's den again too. After the begining of the year though, I'm not going to pass up a $500 holiday bonus and $600 of overtime. I figure I should have my assistant trained by then. I can only handle working with spoiled rich people for so long, then I start getting all itchy and twitchy. Plus I'd like something where I don't have a 60 mile/1.5-2 hour daily commute.
When I was first looking for a job here in OH, I went to several employment agencies, and there were some that also did placement for computer tech people. K-Force was one of them. Usually, if you just put a resume up on Monster.com or Hotjobs.com you'll get agencies calling you to come aply with them. Don't forget to apply directly with IBM and Dell too. And I know as corny as it sounds, maybe even Geek Squad. If nothing else, it'll be a stepping stone to something else.
Good luck hon. Don't get discouraged. It usually does take a while (took me 6 weeks to get my current job), but it can be worth it.

Its in Fairfield. The Fairfield Banquet & Conference Center. We can have the ceremony and reception there. Beautiful gazebo for the ceremony.
UC offers the classes. For members and non-members. So when the class start back up in Jan, I can let you know. I'm going to take classes then too.

Well Guys, It's now down to six months and the clock is ticking till the wedding day. Trust me, I am excited, but a little scared. I have not left Fairfield in 22 years and now I will be in Fairborn, near Dayton. A whole new area. On the plus side, I go to church in nearby Kettering of whom I have friends from there who live in the area. Plus, I am involved in the church. So,it's not like I don't know anybody there. It's just, I have gotten attached to the family pets and the memories of my room. So, I know this will take time.

Don't be afraid. It's the chance of a lifetime. It's good to have things shaken up and to get out of our previous routine. It opens up so many opportunities.
