I had to go buy more coffee beans yesterday. Took the day to recover from my last couple of months.

The test prep took a lot of time and then the stress building up to the test.... I took a 5 hour test in just under 2 and a half hours! My hands were shaking so bad, I could hardly read the exam results section of the paper after it was handed to me. Getting the results right away was better then waiting.

I have co-workers that know more than me, been in the field dong hands-on work, been teaching longer, but none have the cert initials after their name. Plus, the corporate overlords give a $500 spot bonus for passing! On top of that, a couple of weeks ago, my boss told me that she nominated me for an Excellence Award! Should find out next month if I made it.  All in all, I would have to say that it has been a good year  [thumbsup]

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

The sun was still shining. 8)

That is was, but the wind seemed to negate the effects of the sun.
