Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

I apparently left out the part where I am leaving town for training. Looking back over the past 14 days of posts, it might be obvious. But here is the lowdown. I flew out last night to Denver to attend Certification in Household Management training for 8 weeks. Classes are held in an actual late 19th century mansion. The 13,000 square feet include the school and school and placement administration. Rooms are also provided for the students. (That actually covers last night's post. Sorry, I was too tired to do it after the flight.)

The mansion is of fair size, comparable to Milwaukee's Pabst Mansion, though completely different in design. My first surprise was a roommate. I really came here with no expectations, so it was not an unwelcome surprise. Mr. B is a very nice man. As the roommate, I am sure he will be a recurring character. Dinner was provided on arrival; and, there was informal chatting among the resident students.

Class started today at 7:30. No problem, the time change and nervous jitters left me wide awake at 5:30 anyway. Continental breakfast and hit the classroom in the basement. The morning was filled with weekly assignments (zone assignments), an introduction to the code of ethics, an introduction to the staff and a presentation by the school founder. After lunch, we were introduced to the management system and the software. Some homework was assigned and the impression that yesterday was not too soon to start memorizing the important points of the training. After dinner, a number of us met in the classroom to work through the homework and start building the structure for our major projects.

That was the day. I am beat, so I will add more later. I am glad to see people peaking in. Drop a comment or email, I would be glad to hear from you.
