Auf Wiedersehen

The literal translation of "auf wiedersehen" is “until we see again.” I am sure my readers will be disappointed, but Gram Ginger must say auf wiedersehen until April 1. The blog will be on Spring Break, but I will not be enjoying the Florida sun and sand.

I officially resigned from my part-time office job effective February 26. Since that time, I have been working at the office an average of 13-15 hours per week training the new office manager. I don’t mind because my schedule is when I choose to work. Usually, that means starting around 9:30 a.m., a lot better than 7:00 a.m., and working as many hours as I want.

In addition to the extra work hours, I also want to complete a 50 class video learning program sponsored by the Hospice Education Network. The classes consist of videos, usually between 30 to 90 minutes in length, with handouts to be printed before viewing. Following each video is an evaluation and test. Thus far, I have completed seven classes. My goal is to have all classes finished by April 1. Although these are not “required,” I enjoy watching the videos and the challenge of the tests. Each hospice volunteer has an individual ID and password, and a nurse at the hospice office accesses the test scores and records classes completed.

I hope everyone will check the blog again on April 1. This is not an April Fool’s joke. Don't fret. Gram Ginger will be back. Auf Wiedersehen.
