Jobhunting and Labor Day weekend Part 1
Aug. 31st, 2008 02:44 amTHURSDAY
Stayed home all day. Read newspapers. In the mail, two THREADS magazines; gotta get that sequential instead of duplicated. I really enjoy this magazine and this particular issue is thoroughly instructional in applying basic techniques in contemporary ways. I watered the maple tree... Picked ripe tomatoes...
FRIDAY
Pat/NET called about freelancing there; I will not unless they come up with a contract letter to pay me hourly at my rate. Found a note from Leofwyna... "Please take this check and get my registration for the van cause the 31st lands on the weekend." Okay, lines will be at least an hour long, right? Right! Heading home stopped at Goodwill [left empty handed] and Walmart [Drumsticks, Cheddarwurst and Nutter Butters]. In the mail was an envelope with paperwork and an appointment for next Friday. I WANT THIS! Did a couple washer loads of laundry and put away rubbermaid of garb from Cattle Raids.
SATURDAY
Put in last laundry load this morning. Little sister drove in for the state fair today. We saw the best quilts, a horse gentling demonstration, part of the talent show in the open-air auditorium and ate our way in and out of the fairgrounds; Love the corn dogs and lemonaid. However the double ferriswheel wasn't open for business so Leofwyna and I will go back Monday when she gets off work to use the ride tickets for the 'traditional' ride and get supper... more corndogs and lemonaid. We had a lovely day, sunny with a nice cooling breeze for the afternoon. Afterwards we went back to the house and played Tripoli, little sister enriched both our penny jars this time.
