sorry its been so long since i blogged last. i've been quite busy here in colorado. today has been one of the longest due to a conference call after hours. there is so much work that is required after i have been actively training for 8 hours each day- first a bunch of mumbo-jumbo paperwork then i have to make sure that everything is set so that i am prepared for the next day.
on the bottom of my to do list: laundry. tomorrow is my last pair of clean underwear- and since the magic game is after work, i doubt i'll actually be doing any laundry :-/
next to last things on my to do list: doing my hair and eating (lunch was cut to a mere 15 minutes today and its 10 pm now and i still havent eaten dinner)
best part about today: i am getting compliments from my students about how great of a teacher i am. not sure i agree with them (much work on my part is still required before i'll consider myself a great teacher) but compliments are always good to hear - especially when you've had a long day.
thing i'm on the fence about: conference calls. 48 people on the phone at one time- i KNOW you can see the issues i have here. but they are pretty much the only way (other than emails) that we installers on the road can communicate with each other. apparently there will be many more in the future. guess we'll have to see how it all works out.
thing i'm most excited about: HAVING THE WEEKEND OFF!!! last weekend i toured a bunch of wineries in the area and had a great time. i really want to visit the colorado national monument this weekend. i got to see a little bit of it last weekend (its alot like the grand canyon some people say) and i want to see more. taking tons of photos and driving around winding roads up and down seems like a fun way to spend a saturday afternoon...... although i am so tired now i feel like just laying in bed and sleeping ALL weekend!
best part about this hotel: well we didn't have cable for the first 4 days we were here (and i'm a TVaholic) but good things come to those who wait! the cable here is FANTASTIC!!!!!!! not only is it HIDEF cable with nice flat screen tv's, but there are digital cable boxes in the hotel room. this means i get the guide button, reminder, and EVERYTHING. it seems silly but it really makes this room feel more like home.
thing i'm looking forward to: i actually met both of the other coworkers that will be arriving later on site with me here. haven't seem either of them since the beginning of april so it will be nice to have friends to catch up with. and who knows, maybe they can teach me a thing or two while they're here.
---got to go grab some food and hit the hay- be sure to check out the "where is sk going next" section of my blog because its ALWAYS changing!
