New Old Job...Week 1

Well, I have been working at my new contract job, which is at a company I used to work at, which also happens to be my husband's company. How's that for confusing? It seems they need some CAD help, awfully bad - which, I am glad to provide given the generous rate they are paying me. But that's what contractors do - right? Get paid generously for the lack of predictability of their jobs?

In all honestly, I have been enjoying it. It's nice to be in the corporate world again, (although spam filters are criming my email style) - and I have gotten to sit in an AutoCad Electrical training session for the last 2 days. I didn't know training on a new software was going to be a bonus of this contract job! Whoo hoo. It's not unlike the software I used last time I worked there, so I feel as if I am pretty well up to speed - oh, except for the part where I really don't know KNIL about electrical schematics. Ok, I do...but, well, not like I know structural panels.

Training is fun and all, but tomorrow I am totally ready to actually get to producing some drawings! I am not used to producing so little in 3 work days. Ha.

Aside from that, I have a busy few weeks ahead. Between Brian's travels, my Autodesk seminar AND chasing my son...whew... I will be looking forward to memorial day. My one respite between now and then...my spa weekend with the "Blue Sky" gal's this weekend.

Before I sign off, just want to say big ol CONGRATS to the Tunney's on the birth of their twins! Can't wait to meet them!
