Thursday

The work week won't end fast enough for me, at least this one, knowing that I have a week off coming next week. At least the work load has been extremely busy and there isn't any idle time. Today is definitely going to be no different. There is a full day's work in the truck routing system.

No, I haven't heard anything more from Rey. I am going to send him another one-liner note: Please send me Juanita's phone number to verify that she tried to bring the rent money over here. Rey believes his own lies, when he makes something up, he seems to actually believe it's true.

Next week, my son "better" be going to get a job back at Albertson's, if they will even reinstate him. If not that place, then he better start hitting the streets and putting out the applications. I understand that as soon as school got out, he headed to the mountains to work for 2 months, but he's 18 now and life isn't going to get any easier. \

No real bites yet on the room. I figured this wouldn't be an easy one at this time of the year. I'm also not budging on the price, it is hardly unreasonable and I just don't want to go any lower. I have had a couple of ASU students looking for a room - but they don't want to move in for another month. I don't want to wait that long if I don't have to.

I would rather find someone within the next week and get the thing occupied and get the money flowing in.

Whatever the case, that's enough for this one.

G'day.

Yayyyy! Last day of work before getting 9 straight days off. The only thing I have determined to do is go up to my mother's property and have an overnight stay to visit with her. I talk to her once or twice a week, but I haven't seen her since early this year. She doesn't know, yet, that I am coming up there, lol, I just planned that one yesterday.

That is, providing she will be up there. But, she just left last weekend and probably is going to be up there for 3 weeks anyway.

The trailer is hopefully going to be delivered tomorrow sometime. This will be the last of any "big" expenditures - sans any kind of emergency such AC going out or something - and I am still waiting on my federal tax return, the state one came in dropping another $1,500 into my bank account.

Umm, I haven't told them about the intended delivery date yet - so I guess I better do that today, lol. But, really, all they will have to do is get it ready to be moved to the street and then back again. They won't be moving out of it until they get the other one ready, though I expect that won't take them long. The hard part is that that giant cooler will have to be moved from one roof to the other - gag.

Umm, I watched most of the debate last night between the GOP candidates. I thought the question asking Bachman if she would "submit" to her husband in making presidential decision was totally out of line and fairly demeaning as well. Fox did not do a good job of keeping the candidates under control. It was basically a circus type thing and the dude running it - whatever his name is - probably should be replaced with someone else if they are doing any of these debates again.

It was entertaining at least at some points, though, I will grant that.

Whatever the case, there is a small amount of work in the truck routing system and then? Hope to get off a bit early and start vacation - a bit early!

G'day.
