*Whew*
Man! I've surely been super duper busy lately at work. I don't even have time to eat or read news or anything! We found out last week that one of our contractors is leaving to take on a permanent position at GE Financial...after having been here for 2 years working to set up our WebSphere members portal. Anyway, a wee bit of panic set in within our group...and our managers quickly assigned portal management roles for some of us, so the contractor could impart his great ball of knowledge onto 3 of us. Long story short, I ended up with the Web Content Management (WCM) administration portion. We've been meeting 1-2 hours each day so I could learn about all the stuff that WCM would do. This drains serious brain power. After each meeting, I feel like someone sucked all my energy out of me. *Sigh*
Good thing is...stuff like that is hard to learn, and when you find a company that uses it, you need to take advantage of the situation and jump on the opportunity. It's a valuable skillset.
Other than that, we planted our herbs and watermelon and such in the garden over the weekend. We saw some sprouts yesterday! :o) Yey!
Note to self...need to get some cilantro seeds...
Tomorrow we're going to visit Diane and John at the lakehouse. :o) It'll be a fun time, I'm sure.
What else...oh Greg and I used our Williams-Sonoma gift card and bought a grilling book...with lots of different recipes, etc. So far, we've tried 4 recipes, and every single one of them is just awesome. He made pork chops last night, and it was just delicious. Mmmmmmmm...I think we might have created a grilling monster! :o)
