Dirty Bismark loop. 60s and clear, but hazy.

GMAT studying.

Soooo....I found out on 9/9 that my job is ending on 10/23. It was not a surprise at all, for a variety of reasons. After almost 16 years, the severance is generous (although I won't celebrate about that too much until the ink is dry on the paperwork).

My tentative plan is a semester or two of full-time school for a master's degree in analytics at CU-Denver (assuming I can get accepted with my very mediocre undergrad grades; Plan B would be a similar program at "CSU Global"), and then hunting for a job again with some new skillz while chipping away at the remaining classes.

Hence all the recent studying. (Tableau is required for almost all of the SAS analyst-type jobs I've considered over the past few months.)

I need to cram 3-6 months of GMAT studying into the next two months, so that I can take it and get a score back before CU-Denver's 12/15 application deadline. Starting tonight!

:-P

Tableau training.

Tableau training.

Tableau training (EE&B project).

Neighborhood walk -- picking up some pumpkin bread I bought from a neighbor.

Regular, chocolate swirl, and walnut:

Walked to & from the post office, with an extra loop.

Tableau training.

- Ran up to Davidson Mesa to warm up.

- 5K around the mesa, trying to maintain a decent pace for my current (lack of) fitness -- 28:46.

- Ran back down to my neighborhood and then one loop around, to cool down.

This was the first run in a long time that didn't feel like a total struggle -- nothing was hurting (my heel pain has disappeared as mysteriously as it first came on); the weather was nice (50s and no wind); and my stomach was in a good mood.
