After a year and a half of class, I'm finally done! I've been waiting for approval to take my final exam since Christmas. Yesterday morning I was finally able to go and get it done. After being fingerprinted and body cavity searched at the testing center I got to take my exam. Then I spent the rest of the day sick with worry until I got my results which I am pleased to say that I passed. The burden of this class has been lifted off of my shoulders. It's really an indescribable feeling. Now comes the benefit of having stuck with it for so long. The raise, the prestige, the respect of my co-workers. Well at least I'll get a raise. Many thanks go out to my friends and family for their support all the way. Now on to paramedic class. I think I'll be taking a break first though.

Extra Extra....
For everybody who didn't get to check it out on Saturday, my watch made the front page of the Courier Journal. I was so proud. Check it out.

What You Crave
It's been an interesting week. As most of you know, one of my heroes since childhood is Brett Favre. He announced retirement after 17 years in the NFL. I suppose I was a little naive to think that I might watch a game with Favre as quarterback with my son someday. I was never able to watch Terry Bradshaw play for the Steelers although my dad tells me it was awesome. Now I'll have a story to tell my son when he asks about the memorabilia lining my office walls.
In other business, I worked more than 50 hours over the snowy weekend. So many people decided that driving in a foot of snow was a good idea. It confounds logic. I had a reason to be on the road. My reason was the people that didn't, who in turn slid, spun, and flipped their 4 wheel drives right off the road. What some people will do just to get to White Castle when they get "The Crave." There's nothing like a sack full of sliders to keep you warm while standing in the snow all night waiting for a tow truck.
Disclaimer:
This blog is in no way aimed to take away from the delicious taste of a White Castle hamburger. I'm a craver myself and was quite glad they were the only restaurant open during the snow.

Sunshine & Flip Flops
March has certainly come in like a lamb. Devin couldn't wait another day to put on her flip flops and spend some time in the studio. The dog seems to be doing fine. She's laid out on the deck most of the day soaking in the warm air.
