We prepped the boss for a meeting with gov't he's having today. I hope we'll learn more about our future soon. He did mentioned that he just bought Visio for process maps and I told him there was a 6 Sigma software for that. He said get him the info. Jody, help! What was the name of that software, again?  Could you teach a handful of us how to use it?  We do hire 1099's for such stuff....

I also talked to a Major who we work with and he also encouraged me to look into getting my paper work started with the VA. He's been deployed 3 or 4 times in the last 10 years and has got some issues he's working through too. He gave me the business card of VA rep at Walter Reed. So, I guess things are progressing there. 

Ok, guys. Keep in mind our LWs having surgery of one sort or another this week, and those still in recovery mode. Swing lizards if you got 'em.

Very glad to be back home although I don't feel very together about it yet. I'll post more about my trip in another post.

I have to take my carriage to the repair guy today, go measure a marathon course and come home to see what shape the garden is in. It is suppose to be another hot one here.

good luck with your job stuff, Gina.

6 Sigma for Visio?  Hmm... not that I know of...  Oh, you mean 6 Sigma process.. ok, got it instead of Visio..

Actually, Visio can still be used to create process maps for 6 Sigma.  But no, I can't teach it.. I just barely got through it myself.  MiniTab is the name of the software to use for the Control Charts, probability charts, etc. but I really don't think you have to have it for 6 Sigma.

Good luck on your job opportunities and your VA process Gina.

Also swinging for the LW"s having surgery this week.

Just working here.  Need to work on year end things.  We did get a nice rain shower that hopefully will cool things off.  Last night of Zumba for the semester was yesterday.  We don't start bac****il 8/15.  I'm really going to miss that until then.  I need to make sure I keep walking during this time and don't slack off!!

Hope everyone has a great day today.

My company got big on it back in what I think of as The Dark Time. The CEO who introduced it is gone now though.
