Safely Home!

Here's how I feel... strong and happy...

Yep, training was GREAT and now we are ready to work on our project (due around December 10) and our final exam (on December 15th). 

And then the REAL work starts... learning what we actually do on the job! 

Hugs to everyone,

Aimee

Day 3 of Class...

No photos today... I was too tired!  Enjoying class... but working hard to keep up.  I still haven't got my grade from my first test, so I'm still nervous about that!

Hopefully I'll find out my score tomorrow... we have class until noon and then we are heading home.

Good night,

Aimee

Day 2 of Class...

Well, the day started GREAT!  The morning session was very understandable and Lezlie and I were feeling pretty good.  Then, the afternoon hit!  First, Lezlie found out she made a 98 on her test!  So, I'm MORE nervous about my score because if I scored poorly I sure am going to look bad.  And, the afternoon was more confusing... so I'm nervous about my test score and trying to focus on new concepts.  I'm a wreck. 
We had a GREAT dinner, though... and met a new Mercy co-worker, Tammy.  Here we are:

The funniest thing was that while we were at dinner, Craig texted me telling me that he is at dinner with Erin's parents!  It's really a small world. 

Going to bed... another big day tomorrow.

Epic Training: Day One

Today was our first day of Cadence Administrator training and we did great!  It was much better than we thought it would be... Lezlie and I were so worried but we did fine.  We got there an hour early to make sure we sat in the front... here's what the building looked like when we drove up:

It looked so eerie... adding to our apprehension...

Then, we found out we were in the "Clown" room!  That just made us laugh.  Here's the pictures that are on the wall when you walk in our training room:

And, outside the classroom we found a comfy place to rest:

Lezlie wanted to be in The Producers, er The Developers:

And, even Nesi (Stephanie's dog) made the wall:

Oh, and did you know I got a new phone... I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Well, that's it for today... I'm going to rest for tomorrow. 

Bye!

Back in Wisconsin!

Lezlie and I drove back to Wisconsin today for our second round of training.  We thought maybe a train ride would have been fun... but Lezlie's new Equinox is very comfortable!

Gas is pretty expensive up here, though...

We saw a beautiful rainbow... can you see it?  It's just to the right of the first windmill...

I tell you, Wisconsin LOVES their cows... must be their ability to provide CHEESE!

We had dinner at a wonderful restaurant... full of wonderful man art!  LOL

We are very excited for class tomorrow... we have 3 1/2 days of class... so I better get some rest.

More tomorrow,

Aimee

Resting up...

Our tests went well... and now we are anxiously waiting for the results.  We won't know for another week or so how we did... but Lezlie and I are confident that we passed!  On Monday we are heading back to Wisconsin for more training... and then there will be another test... and a big project.  So, I'm resting up this weekend!

Stay tuned,

Aimee

Studying...

Lezlie and I will be studying for our first certification test.  Lezlie is testing on November 11th and I am testing on November 12th.  Then, it's back to Wisconsin for Round 2 of Epic Training on November 15th... so check back then for updates!
