Bye Ellen - Welcome home...

My friend Ellen is returning to Ct. having completed her time at Mayo. Mixed feelings for her, to return to her family, but to start looking for more work.

The time home was good - Visiting the Scoutguys who where teaching the district youth leadership course was great, I felt I belonged again. Good to see my family - and fix that dumb toilet. My non paying renters had replaced the gasket under the tank with silicone caulk, which flaked into the little holes around the rim - which left too little flow to do the job.

Work is ok, no word on any sort of extension. No word on any other leads at this time. Umpa is still taking care of the sale of the camper. I will be home the weekend of 10/2

Long Weekend...

Plane Trip Friday, 6-10 and return Tuesday afternoon. When work seems to be less stressful - the rest gets worse. On the plus side, I negotiated a raise this week. Will be nice when it appears on a paycheck. Found out my housing offers a monthly rate, should save 2-400 a month...

But this too will pass.

Prayers for Dan B. as well - in the hospital for appendicitis, I think.
