Here is the night David and I went out to celebrate my PHR! Thanks friends who joined me. It was a fun night!

Oh, how I've Missed You!

My Mac has been out of commission for the past two weeks or so. David is fixing it today and should hopefully be up and running tomorrow! I have some pictures to upload and will blog more soon!

Pizza Pizza

Last night David and I went to our monthly dinner party. The theme of the night was "Pizza". I think there were at least 8 kinds of pizza there. I had a small slice of each. I'm still full the next day! It was a fun night!

PHR

Last weekend I took and passed my Professional in Human Resources certification!! I started studying for this exam at the beginning of September. A few weeks into my studying, I was asking myself, "What was I thinking taking this exam? I have small children, a part time job and it's the holiday season!" I'm glad I kept with it!!

People have asked me what a PHR will do for me. Taking the test really was for me. I wanted to prove to myself that I understood my field. Having a PHR does make an HR Professional more marketable. I would say having a PHR for an HR person would be like having a PMP for a Project Manager.

Sure glad this is all behind me!

I'm working on an HR blog. It's still under construction, but if you'd like to check it out:

Feel free to ask any HR questions on the new site! This is an experiment. I'll see if I can keep this little HR blog going. If nothing else, it will keep me on top of my HR knowledge.
