On Graduation

Tis the season of Graduation. It is Sunday morning before church and I am hanging out in the living room with Senior Smoothy Buns, a.k.a. Friday. I am reflecting on a wild and crazy 5 months this year has been. I had a lot on my plate. Work was insane. In addition to the two projects I already lead testing on, I was thrown a third brand new system to manage. Piles accumulated at work. I broke my cardinal rule about work from home. In short it was nuts. On top of all that, I was studying for my Project Management Professional (PMP) certification.

Well the first release of my new project went out the end of April. I took my PMP exam last week (I passed). For the first time since college, I feel like I have graduated. It is satisfying to meet a goal(s). It is even more gratifying to have a breather to reflect on all the madness.
