Home for the weekend.

Had a good interview with a small electronics company (here in town!).  Think it went well, hopeful for a second interview.  And when I came home - my headhunter called, and my three month extension had been rejected by corporate. So I am not staying in Colorado into November, I will be driving home next week.  Quite a shock, I had been offered the extension a week and a half ago, and it seemed a done deal.

Update

Was home last weekend - Took Umpa out on the Farmington River Sunday afternoon.  Picked up D. at Camp Workcoeman after a week of CIT, Kevin came back from Ohio, S. and I had N. in my canoe - I dislocated my left pinky as I put the canoe in the water, a little freaky but it snapped back in to place. Later, someone in my canoe was snapping branches back at me and I leaned over and feel out.  My youngest, who shall remain nameless, was a bit panicked when the canoe and he left me behind in the water.  But it was a good trip - nobody else got hurt, it was a good day.

D. is back at CW, this time with Troop 4, and he'll hear tomorrow if he is invited back to be staff.  S. is STILL looking for work, and half-heartedly looking for a car to drive to college.

Was offered the extension here in Colorado for another 3 months, with the possibility of a total of 2 years. That would the duration of getting rid of the Tandem here (Like NASDAQ, and Kohls)...I asked for the ability to work remotely as well (1/2 time) since they have others who do - but was turned down.  This is too far away, and too much to fly home - I will look for tickets for 8/11 tomorrow.  S. graduation party is that weekend.

Kevin wrote today as well - they're planning to go to Saranac, one of my favorite campsites on an island on Dog pond.  But it is scheduled for Monday - Thursday before I get back.  Hopefully the boys can go with Umpa, depending on their WORK schedules.

Three weeks 'til I get home, the disappointment of today brought it home early.
