April Showers

This morning was my presentation to the office justifying what I've done all semester. I think it went fairly well, but as usual I strayed from my planned notes and skipped over some information. And my hyperlinks didn't work because the computer I was using had social networking blockers up. That's okay, most of my audience has a profile on facebook so they know what's up. I'm very grateful for everyone's attendance and the huge amount of support I got. I assume interns would be easy to ignore, but I've been treated like part of the team since day one.

Keep an eye on water levels near you, the creek behind my house was much higher this morning than last night, and we may still get some rain later today.

One more shameless plug for the Facebook personal preparedness group! 5,000 Prepared Citizens needs you! 162 members is great, but still quite far away from our goal.

Hello

Well it's getting to be that time of the semester when students panic about the work they have left to do before summer gets here. I am no exception. I have papers and projects in almost every class, so coming to work at Johnson County EMHS is actually a nice break from the stress.
I have a project and presentation to complete for the office, but it's not nearly as stressful as the projects which require hours in the library and extensive knowledge on 18th century literature and theory.
Enjoy getting those taxes done!

April

Welcome to April! Can you believe we're already 4 months in to this year? Today is also the first Wednesday of the month, which means testing of the outdoor siren warning system at 11am. Today will be the first time I get to see them push the siren button. Listen for it at 11!
