right now, gidget, i'm fine and at work. it took me 70 minutes to make what is usually a 25 minute drive, but, hey, i made it! and the sun is shining and it is a pretty day! serate, good luck. i think i would move, too. gidget, you never know, you may end up with the best neighbors in the world! the guy who lives next door to me washes my car and changes my headlights and stuff like that. he's a cutie, come to think of it. young, but cute. he used to shave his head and the other day i notived he has started the beginnings of an afro. he told me he has decided he wants to grow dreads like lenny kravitz!!

right now, hermi, did you drive to work or dogpaddle?! LOL, gidget about the coffeemate. yesterday i used an empty coffeemate packet folded up to put under a rickety table leg at work, but i think i would know what to do with the contents without being told! when we were little kids, our neighbors also had a housefull of kids; both of the parents were physicians and they always had a live-in to help with 7 kids born in 9 years. one lady was from germany and spoke only a little english. the parents were both going to be out so they had given her simple instructions for making spaghetti and a salad and told her the kids liked the parmesan cheese in the shiny green container. when the parents got home, the live-in was upset because the kids had refused to eat their dinner with the lovely cheese on top. turns out, she grabbed the shiny green can of Comet!!

Right now Gidget chatter away! I like hearing your stories. Don't be too afraid of your apartment yet. All the other places I've lived were ok, we just got a bad bunch of neighbors and a bad apartment manager. Eddie was terrified all night. I finally had to lock him out of the bedroom so dh could sleep and make a bed on the living room floor for me. Today he is a terror getting into everything running around like a wild banchee and I don't have the heart to try to get him to behave. No damage to us - just had to have fans blowing out the windows all last night. Which meant yet another trip to Wal-Mart to get a couple more fans that will fit in our windows - the wide skinny kind - so Eddie wouldn't fall out of the screens. Fire damage to the actual apartment, no water damage to that apartment, the one next to us, and to our WONDERFUL *insert sarcasm here* neighbors down below. I asked one of the maintenance men today if anybody was hurt. He said no, and the Red Cross is putting the 3 living there up at a motel for a couple weeks. I said interesting, there were people staying there last night and this morning. He just came and told me *unofficially* that he found 6 people there sleeping. None of the 3 that are on the lease. I told him I wondered if the apt manager was getting kick backs from these type of people [thanks for the idea Tabby!] and the dopers below us and he said he was sure of it. Thankfully our lease is up today. We did sign a month to month lease, and need to give 30 days when we are ready to move [a lease has been signed for September] so tonight when dh comes home we're going to discuss all our options. He's got a meeting with our soon to be landlord today [work stuff] so he's gonna get a feel for how soon their new house is going to be finished [60% of the brick was on the outside Saturday]. Cute story Tabby. I remember in college a lady from China telling me her first baking experience. She was making a cake, got to the part about "fold in 3 eggs, 1 at a time". She didn't know what to do so she fried the 3 eggs, folded them, and put them in the batter 1 at a time. *L*

Right now, I did another scary thing - I called the assistant superintendent to actually make a request... they moved me to the school I least wanted to go to - but they yada yada an explanation, and toldme if I had questions to call the assitant super. So I did, I just asked if I could pretty please if possible be reassigned to either the Jr Hi or the Middle school - noting I understood need for change, but I was taking classes in the philosphy of my preferred building, but I am flexible and in the end I'm fine with going to North (k-6 w/ dual language) all on voice mail... why are my hands cold and shaking?!!

Right now, just got back from taking Mom to the heart surgeon for a checkup and he is amazed at how beautifully everthing has healed! She has to start cardiac rehab next week, which she is not thrilled about because she thinks that she can do whatever she wants. We stopped by Target afterwards and she did really well walking around.

right now, that's wonderful, mamie!! well, tomorrow is 'the day' at work...and here is what is going to happen: my boss (who works in our main office and only stops by for lunch) has hired a general manager (which is what i thought my boss was--his parents own 200 million in property and businesses and gave this guy their 'summer home'--read this as golf course--to manage. they also have the course as a tax write-off, i'm sure, since all their other properties and businesses are money-makers)... the new guy starts tomorrow and will be sitting in the pro shop back office watching all of us on cameras. his job is to bring money back to the course. he has no golf experience. he owned his own business for many years, then worked as an auto mechanic somewhere. he was going to go back to oregon after a failed marriage in california, a failed relationship in oregon, and a failed auto mechanic job back in california....but somehow, boss met him and suggested he come to work for 6 months to whip us all into shape or something. so here's a golf course that's not even making ends meet and they hire someone at big bucks with no knowledge of golf, or greenskeeping or setting up tournaments or ANYTHING, and he is going to be our manager. i am afraid the pro-shop manager and the restaurant manager will both quit. they have each been there for 15 years!! it is not a general manager we need, since things run well already. we need a golf professional to help set up tournaments and package deals to bring in more money... i am dreading tomorrow and i have to work a 12-hour day.... of course, i have to give this guy a fair shake and i need my job. let's hope he's a nice guy! if he can somehow make more money for the course, that'd be great...but i don't understand the secrecy about springing this guy on the people who have been devoted for years and bringing someone on board who has less golf experience than my kitten, bootsie. wish me luck!
