Change Is Hard

…but change is certain.

Grateful for the help

I drove through a blizzard today on my way to Ann Arbor and a tutoring date with a fellow student.  It was worth it!  Turns out my whole problem (well most of it) was that I didn’t save a change I made way up at the top of the assignment.  So OF COURSE there was nothing there for my next processes to work with!  And the good news is, I came to this conclusion almost by myself as we worked around what I thought I had done, trying to figure out why it wasn’t working.

I made it through to the end of the assignment with quite a bit of navigational help.  I can’t say for sure if I could do it again myself, though I think I could right now.  Right this second anyway.  I’m going to try it again tomorrow to see if most of the logic of it sunk in.   Plus I’ll be spending most of tomorrow studying for the written exam which is Wednesday.

I was reading a couple of older blog entries.  There was one not so long ago when I said I was enjoying my classes, even my web class, but to remind me of that when I’m stressing over the midterm.  It would be very good if some of you would remind me that I’m enjoying school.  I need that confirmation now!

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

    OK, I am reminding you that you LOVE school and LOVE being a student again! Remember what the the alternative was (your job a couple years ago) and remember that you’ll never have to go back to that! 🙂

  4. Being in the mortgage business during this economy and this mortgage collapse would be a very bad and sad thing. I am SO glad I got out when I did. Lesson learned…:)
