Evie Day 809
Good morning, and a very happy beginning to the Western work week to you all. Today is 2 June 2025.
OK, I know it’s been a couple of days… let me explain.
Last Tuesday I had a content review session in the morning, and that lasted until 10:30 in the morning or so. After that, it was time to head to the airport. I flew out of Kansas City, connected in Phoenix, on my way to Santa Ana/Orange County/John Wayne International Airport. I had to deliver a session on prompt writing at a community college in Mission Viejo (Saddleback Community College) for folks that worked in the California university system. I would like to say it all went off without a hitch, but there were some aspects I would change if I could.
The following day I delivered a one-day Azure fundamentals course on an East coast time frame… I was still in California, so we started at 6:00 AM local time. I kept the coffee at hand, and wrapped that day up right on schedule. A 6:45 AM flight out on Friday, and home by 3:30 Friday afternoon.
The one-day classes are fine, but if given a choice, I like the three or four day classes. It’s a little more of an intensive project to string a few one-day classes together, sometimes with different vendors. If you land one day in the middle of the week, you aren’t likely to get two or three more one day classes to fill out the week… the week is pretty much consumed by the one-day.
OK, meanwhile back here… we had a very nice weekend. Dane had a party to go to for his girlfriend’s brother’s college graduation. Gracie and Lisa went to Sams Saturday and ran some other errands on Sunday. Today, Gracie is going to come back over with my favorite granddaughter for dinner. I think we’ll take the safe approach with spaghetti instead of the lobster thermidor with béchamel sauce. Don’t forget the Spam.
This week I have a certification exam, so I have that to focus on. I think I could stand to focus on making a pot of coffee, too.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
