"The reward for work well done is the opportunity to do more." - Jonas Salk



Do you see this picture? I'm in there somewhere doing my little hand sign just happy to get my free snazzy purple shirt. I had no idea what road was ahead of me just like right now I still don't know what's ahead of me. But I am glad that I'm about half way down that road.

I'm not going to lie, work has been really tough lately but it has been so rewarding at the same time. I have really learned a lot about myself, my abilities, my awesome BS skills I didn't know I had, and my patience. I'm really proud of my section of this gigantic overhaul of ours. In fact, starting soon I will become a sort of mentor to Sam Houston State who will be implementing their overhaul in January. I've also been considered to speak at the convention featuring Banner about the P-Card section. I've been told to not be surprised if I end up mentoring several universities as I was the first to do this.

I'm not patting my back yet but all of this has put a little spring in my step... today. Monday I could easily be tooting a different horn. But all of this has come at a price, I haven't seen my mom since the beginning of July and for me that is looooong. I'm also missing Easton's second birthday tomorrow. But soon the dust will settle, my job will become more routine again and all will be right in my world again. And then there will be one thing left to do.... vacation.
