Well, I'm back to the blog. Sometimes it just does a soul good to write down a few things--even if it's just tapping my fingers instead of actually putting the pen on the paper.
It's been a while since I've blogged. Haven't had much reason to lately, although I think I may take another stab at maintaining this thing. I've been busy this past summer and a lot of things have been happening.
I spent the last summer here in Minneapolis. I'm not sure if there are anything better than Minnesota summers--although this past one was a little on the chilly side. I was working across the river in St. Paul for the State of Minnesota. It was an experience that was valuable in many ways and I left the organization I worked for having learned many professional skills and even a few life lessons. One interesting thing that I was able to do there was perform budget projections. I know, I know...many of you look at this and wonder how in the world anyone could find budget projections interesting, but just think. These budget projections were used in legislative negotiation processes and in a small way, influenced how the State of Minnesota decided to quantify its priorities in budget form.
Anyways, enough about that. Since the earlier post three, almost four, months have gone by. June, July, August, and now September. Summer has come and gone and now school is back in session, and boy is it! The semester is heating up and is full of time consuming projects.
So, I think I might keep this blog in an effort to have a little fun and stay sane and maybe share some fun ramblings every now and then.
If you visit, please leave a note and let me know!
