PC Pro Certified

 I just got my PC Pro Certification. I have to admit I was a little worried about this. I have cursed TestOut throughout the semester and for good reason. Most of the labs are all or nothing scenarios that are either pass or fail.  The teacher grades them on whether or not they are done. I have an A in the course, and I think I'll continue to have an A after the final.

This leaves two more finals.  I think my letter grade dropped in both of them because of the back spasm absences, but at least the final can bring up the grade in English.  I really shouldn't have gotten the word counts on those two assignments confused.

Also, I'm still waiting to hear from the hand specialist to see how he's going to treat my TFCC tear.

I think it was stress that contributed to the flares towards the end of the semester. I was worried about being able to continue, I was trying to keep the assignments in line, and I had to worry about what was going on in my wrist. Being placed in the MRI machine in an awkward position for over an hour probably just gave the body an area to focus on the week before finals. I know pushing myself can be bad, but if I can't handle college classes full time, there's no chance of returning to the work force.

But at least the old student loans won't affect the help Vocational Rehabilitation gives. Indiana, for once, actually has better rules than Pennsylvania does in this regard. At least I've been told typing won't make the TFC Ulnar tear worse.

Glad to hear typing isn't going to make things worse. I can't wait till Wednesday to find out how I can exercise in a way that won't make my cardiovascular problems worse, so yeah, it's a great relief to know what your actual limits are, rather than being afraid to do stuff because you don't know if you're going to make things worse.

I hope things work out for you on Wednesday. I hope 2017 is better than 2016 for a lot of people.

I'm getting to the end of the 16th month waiting period for my SSI case.

Wow, that'd be a lot of back pay! Hope 2017 is better for you and your housemate, too.
