Busy with hopes of updates
Posted by superhumanben on April 27, 2011
It’s been quite a while (four months or so) since I last updated ShortShell. Mostly due to laziness but a good portion has been due to an extreme business. Since early March, I have been in hardcore study / absorb mode with many accolades to show for my hard work. Beyond four new Microsoft certifications since December, I also now have a second certification for ITIL version 3 
(previously held version 2) Foundation. I am attending the local Twin Cities Powershell group on a monthly basis and will be joining the SCCM group pending time availability. I gave apheresis for the first time this year and have been searching for another time that fits into my schedule.
I’ve traveled to Colorado four to five times since November 2010 (I’ve lost track) and have totaled up close to a full month and a half of time away from home. Two weekends ago Holly traveled with me to Colorado for a short introduction into the fine state. We went horse back riding in Estes Park for 2 
hours with some friends and then she flew back. All in all a quick trip for her but PTO is at a premium lately. There has been a death in the family and yet we will soon welcome in another member with my cousin’s upcoming wedding.
Starting May 2nd, I am to move back to my original position of Windows Operations. It has been a year plus that I have been out of that field and I’m frankly nervous about the work load. Next weekend I’ll be traveling back to Omaha to see my sister again for the second time in two weeks, which I’m very excited for. Late May will see a trip to San Francisco for Citrix Summit and Synergy conferences.
I’m optimistic that I’ll be able to work on the yard and finish prepping it for spring and summer. Hopefully this will not be the last update in months yet again. I will attempt to keep updating and will start trying to use my Picasa web album more to highlight the wonderful things I encounter throughout my day to day live. Here’s to anticipative enthusiasm.
