It's finally here....

Well, it's been 3 long years, but the system replacement project I've been a part of at work is finally ready to implement in our production environment. Some time shortly after midnight tonight (yep, on April Fool's Day!), we'll start converting data from our current system into the new one. Multiple jobs will be running nearly 24 hours a day for the next several days, and we hope to have the system ready for use by our processors within about 7-8 days. The next few weeks will be many days of long hours and of being on call 24 hours a day, but it's nice to finally see some light at the end of the tunnel. Plus, with all the vacation restrictions over the past year, I should be able to head up to our lake cabin for LOTS of fishing all throughout the summer!

Here's hoping the phone doesn't ring much in the next few weeks!
