My class is now down to 4 students. Should be interesting. Luckily the instructor counts the DQs as participation. So I answered 2 of the 3 DQs today, thereby knocking out one of my participation days! YAY!
Talked with my boss this morning and I guess Honeywell is changing their tuition reimbursement program. Now you have a max of $5250 a year where before there was no cap. Well, this sux because I passed that after my 3rd class. University of Phoenix is really expensive and those costs just went up to. Currently it is $1545 for 3 credit hours and then $75 for materials. (Why - I don't know... the materials are all electronic!!) As of July 1 the cost will be $1590 for 3 credit hours and $85 for materials. Cost goes up, reimbursement goes down. Thank you George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. I am not sure if I am going to have to postpone my classes after this one or not. The change in reimbursement is supposed to take effect on August 1 and my next class runs from July 14 to August 17. I know damn well we can't afford to pay it out of pocket. Financial Aid take me away!!! Deb is looking into it for me with HR. She's the best!
Alex made it safely to Las Vegas yesterday. Although I miss him already. He'll be back the end of July. All the puppies will be big by the time he comes back! Some of them may even be gone! :( That will make him sad.
I really should get back to work. I'm just fighting a headache and feel achey (or is it achy). Neither looks right!! I know it is lack of sleep and stress, but ugh! About 45 more minutes and then I can head home.
