I've Been Certified

No, I haven't been certified crazy. I am now a Certified Bookkeeper! What is a "Certified Bookkeeper" you might ask? Well, according to the American Institute of Professional Bookkeepers, through whom I received the certification, I have now proven I have "the level of knowledge and skill needed to carry out all key functions through the adjusted trial balance, including basic payroll, for firms of up to 100 employees." This is an important step for me since I have been unable to complete my degree in accounting as of yet. This now gives me verifiable proof that I have the knowledge that I say I do. Now the fun begins!

I've Gone Mainstream

Well, I've finally decided to go mainstream with my blog rather than continue to use my own website and software package because I'd like to be able to interface with other sites as well as use the mobile blogging feature here. I will be transferring all of the entries from my old blog to here as time permits. This move will also mean that updates should be almost daily but will not be any farther apart than a week.

Here Comes the Sun

Well, I was just called today to begin a new assignment. It was an assignment I was offered the day after my last one ended but I had to turn it down at that time due to commitments I had made knowing that I was ending an assignment. The person that had accepted it didn't work out so it was offered to me again. Then, as if working wasn't enough to get excited about, we received a small financial windfall from my grandmother's passing a couple months ago. Yay!

Still Looking

Well, as my current assignment winds down (my last day will be Tuesday, March 11), I find myself again relying on God to make sure an opportunity comes my way. Since I knew I didn't want this position on a more permanent basis, I had never stopped looking the whole 2½ months I have been there and have had a couple interviews in that time; but, nothing has resulted in a job offer yet. Well, I know that God will provide as long as I do my part and trust in him for the rest.
