H1N1 struck our town

We live in a small community in Minnesota, and in the last few weeks the h1n1 flu has run through in a wave. I came down with it and went to the ER for fluids, while there they also discovered that my potassium was low and gave me that as well. After being sick for some time, if turned into bronchitis, lucky me.

During this time, there were between 100-250 kids missing from school on any given day. The best thing would have een for the school to shut down, sanitize everything, and reopen the following week.

Along with this this, there was also was strep, mono, and bronchitis.

I'm now ready for the sunny spring weather! bring it on!

Job Interview

I have an internal job interview for a better position.

I haven't interviewed for 6+ years so I am reading "What Color is Your Parachute? 2012". This is a interesting book. It has you really looking into what you want to do with your work life, and how to design to get there.

If anyone else out there is currently out of work, looking for new work, looking to improve yourself, check out this book and get a new perspective.

Unfriending

Well, it happened. I was unfriended by someone. Well more than one, but this one has me baffled. The first time it happened, I was a little put out, but then realized that we weren’t really friends, but more like we knew each other and it was fun to read her statuses, but understood that maybe she didn’t want to read mine. Totally cool with that.

But this one threw me for a loop. We were really close in school. We did drift apart after that, but then so many people do after school. I guess once we connected on facebook, we didn’t really talk much, but it was nice to keep up to date with the status updates that would go by.

I must just be reading too much into it! Get a life, like we used to say in high school!
