I am grateful that my local library provided access to LinkedIn Learning long enough for me to get my Project Management Professional (PMP) professional development units (PDUs) done. A bit of a march towards the end given I lost access to Linkedin Learning after September 30, but it all worked out and saved me some cash.

It appears that my access to LinkedIn Learning via my local library will disappear after September 30 due to the grant supplying that access ending. I am grateful that I have had six or so months of access to LinkedIn Learning using this grant to work on completing my PMP PDUs before my October deadline. Looks like I have three days to finish 8.75 PDUs, so my weekend is set :)

I am still amazed that a 2022 RAV4 (an SUV) is capable of 39 MPG while running 87 octane gas. I don’t mind going to the fuel station quite so much these days.

Long Form Posting in a Microblogging Environment

Over the years, I have hopped from publishing platform to platform in search of the best solution for my meager blogging needs. After spending time in Movable Type, Typepad, Blogger, Ghost, and Wordpress, I’m now using micro.blog for my personal electronic publishing needs.
