Made my presentation

The farmers market offerings

Finished my book and make my presentation to 3 classes of 9th and 10th graders on

The Hunger Games

. There is a second book coming out in Sept. By Suzanne Collins. She had neat colored bookmarks with images of the covers.

I also finished Stuart Wood's book.

I have been listening to some of the kid's book tapes on my commute. I just finished Julie of the Wolves and Where the Red Fern Grows. I remember mom trying to get me to read it and I didn't. It had gotten the best book award. Now, 40 years later I finally appreciate it. Thanks Mom!

I'm starting on my purchase list now with our meager funds. No Title 5 state money this year.

Finished the Hunger Games

U;m ready for my book talk in the morning. The book was really good and it turns out from Amazon that is just Book 1.

Today I'm reading Stuart Wood's

Mounting Fears

.

Tonight I watched the Oscars and Barbara Walters. The Oscars were banal except for Sean Penn. I'll have to see Slum Dog. I have the Reader on hold at the library.

Well I thought it would go down

My glucose was 140. I'm watching my sugar in carrots not in fruit, haven't been drinking anything but water and tea but still it's high. It even went up a point. I had beets which are high in sugar. Marilyn says I'm still borderline and it takes longer than 2 weeks for your body to adjust or change.

I've been swimming every day some times it seems like all I do is go to the gym. I cut out all white flour and white rice. No potato because of the starch. My calories are low. My activity high. Time to drop more weight and increase my time in core conditioning class and on the treadmill.

This week off I thought I'd so to water aerobics every morning and swim at 6 but I slept in. I like to watch the View opening. i went swimming today amd swam 26 laps again. My legs feel it too.

Marilyn says not to consider a job so far I'd have to get an apartment. I like it where I am and there are a lot of opportunities in this area, more than any place in the country. If I were to move to Brentwood the possibilities would be much more limited.

Friday, the last of my winter break

"Life isn't about how to survive the
storm, but how to dance in the rain."

I'm off to get another fasting glucose test. I'll also do an occult blood.
The farmers market was there. I got some whole grain wheat bread. Wanted honey wheat or my regular pumpernickel rye swirl. No white flour. Got some blueberries and a raspberry to put in my oatmeal while I wanted for my number to come up in the busy lab. I stopped by the veggie stand and wanted to get some carrots and cauliflower but ended up with just an artichoke because carrots have a lot of sugar. I came back and took some pictures of the bounty available on 2/20.

There was a vendor that had honey products from candles to lotion, honey and this great Gardner's hand balm. I keep hitting the lane markers in the pool and have wounds on my r hand as I am forced over when it gets crowded.

There was a vendor that had homemade low fat natural cookies with pumpkin, lemon poppy seed,cranberry-orange and others. I almost bought some before I caught myself.

The cherry blossoms and daffodils are all in bloom. I took some pictures of them too.

I swam 25 laps tonight. My body is a little stiff.
I'm reading the Hunger Games in preparation for my presentation at S.C.H.S.

I was visualizing a move to Brentwood. A lot of work.

I'm waiting for my lab results to be posted.

My PG&E bill was 40.00 this month.

You can track and analyze your expenditure's at Mint.com.

There is also an international career fair in San Francisco. It might be interesting to work out of the country. I considered teaching English in Portugal 10 yrs. ago, Spain I would like.

I once interviewed for Japan. Wouldn't like that

I may get some stock in NetFlix.

Off to interview

I ate when i got home around 10 and at 2 had repeated bouts of blood filling the bowl, unless it was beets, while I was changing the sheets and soaking them and my nightgown I got worried. By the way, if blueberries are giving you antioxidants, why do they pass through whole? Gwen said raisins do too. I emailed my doctor.

Off to get the remote then the interview and now that I discovered I could recharge my camera battery and did, I'll take some pictures. Although snow was on the hills yesterday it was not today. I'll have to get that photo next week when it rains again.

My interview seemed to go really well. The asst. superintendent brought out a salary schedule thinking I'd be off their chart. The salary is roughly the same.

The town is really small. It took me an hour to get there. I'd go home on weekends but, I'd need to get an apt or room there. In this economy, any offers are welcome but,I didn't expect to move so quickly. Their librarian died.

That means a roommate here. Unless Lacy went with me we would miss each other. It would also start soon in March. Small towns are tough to live in. I stopped in the Chamber of Commerce in Brentwood and got a list of businesses and a map. I'll read the tiny local paper. There is one theater and a video store and 2 grocery stoees and a Walgreans. There may be 5 restaurants and I did not notice any Chinese or Thai.

I'd rather stay here. I wonder if the Mission college will call.

I got the new Stuart Woods novel Mounting Fears.

I send Gwen a box of Mom's handknit things a poncho and a hand knit suit. I also put in a sweater for Clare. She said only she got the package and thanks for sharing. Well, does the sweater fit Clare?

So much for sending her cookie cutters.

I went to this Vietnamese BBQ place tonight where you get 5 shrimp marinated and grilled on a squerer and some marinated pork over rice. It's really good. They serve it with pickled scallions, cucumber diakin, shreaded carrot and lettuce, a nice treat.

A new screen

Anais Nin:
"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations. "


I took my car into Toyota for a new multi display screen. I'm glad they wash it too. It may stop me from being pissed off the screen went out. It will be 1000 dollars.

Actually it was 800 something, but I also got my oil changed for 40 dollars and then.... I left my garage remote in the van. I got home and called the dealer. Then I called the locksmith who couldn't open the side doors but he did have a coat wire device that popped the dowel out of the sliding door. It was not fun. I haven't gotten absolute confirmation that the remote is there but I HOPE SO. At 9 while I was swimming Toyota xalled to say they have my remote. Thank Goodness.

Mike is GU. (Geographically unacceptable) He lives in Palo Alto the nice side of the tracks in a townhouse with his son 50 percent of the time. It's in the same city as Stanford but closer to Mt. View.It used to be the model so there are mirrors to make it look bigger on the walls. It's cozy. Like my townhouse in HI it had 3 levels. It is about 20 miles from my house.1/2 that from work for each of us. hum....a lot of miles.

Troy did more.

It's stopped raining for 2 days. Finally, the sun is shining again.

The kitten in the garage was one we already had fixed so we let him go.

I swm 23 laps tonight to make up for my overinduldence in egg rolls. Back to normal now and they were good.

Time to start the Oatmeal in the morning. I like it with raspberries.

A tea date

I spent 4 hrs, on a tea date with Mike. It was a nice way to spend a rainy day. He is nice and had to take his son to a LaCross game in the rain when he got out of school.
I had a cup of Earl Grey and the nice baristo went next door to get me some lemon. Starbucks doesn't carry it. That was nice. It was pouring. We were talking about personality types and I had to come home and look mine up. Ironically, I had seen it in my office this morning, I forgot I am a ENFP. extroverted, intuitive, perceptive, feeling. Routine is a problem; I have to train myself to stick to it when things become routine and uninteresting/unchallenging. I gave him a belated Vakentine.

I was starving when I got home and had the 2 leftover egg rolls for lunch/brunch.

I signed up to sponsor Emily's walk for Cancer this summer, finally.

I began to clean up the house. there is a lot to do. The kitchen and the bedroom need the most work.

I have a job interview on Thursday, a recall of Brentwood. That's the place out near Livermore in the vineyards. I need to get a battery for my camera and take some pictures this time. The kills are a beautiful Emerald green. It is cold so there was snow on Mt. Diablo and all the fruit trees are in bloom.All the vines are leafing too.

Why is postage going up again? Because Congress said they could?

Why is Obama sending more troops to Afghanistan?

My hair is so fried I swim, wash, put on conditioner then it was still so dry i could barely comb in over processed that it is. I hope it helps. No more curling iron. I need to use rollers again and electric rollers if i need more.

CA Mike

I'm talking to Michael Bret Strong of Palo Alto. He's 2x divorced, had a 17 y.o son and takes care of his 79 y.o. mother and takes her grocery shopping every Sat. morning, Ex Marine, ex-EDS and now executive headhunter and outsourcing counselor.

I am heading to Caro's to cook.

Lisa called to say she was sick so we canceled breakfast today.

I made some yummy butternut squash soup and seared scallops last night for my belated Valentine's dinner.

Time to clean house. The kitchen and bedroom need some attention and the housekeeper is out of the budget right now.

Caro and I worked on my taxes and made egg rolls with shrimp, ground pork, garlic, water chestnuts, mushrooms, carrots, celery, bean sprouts,and green onion. They were yummy. Next time, we'll do hot and sour soup.

I talked to Mike and watched the Bachelor. It was miss it or swim. I should have gone to swim and taped it.

Smile

Off to the pool

You are The High Priestess

Science, Wisdom, Knowledge, Education.

The High Priestess is the card of knowledge, instinctual, supernatural, secret knowledge. She holds scrolls of arcane information that she might, or might not reveal to you. The moon crown on her head as well as the crescent by her foot indicates her willingness to illuminate what you otherwise might not see, reveal the secrets you need to know. The High Priestess is also associated with the moon however and can also indicate change or fluxuation, particularily when it comes to your moods.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

I made scrambled eggs and cream cheese and had some fresh pineapple for breakfast.

I ran out in the rain and got gas for 10 dollars at 2.19 a gal.and returned my library book before the library opened. It was due. It's pouring.

Now I'm off to the gym. I did my laps and dogged kids they were swarming and took over the place in a birthday party. I couldn't swim the end of my laps without getting kicked or pushed out of my 1/2 lane so I hit the lane markers. My hand is gashed as a result. I had my umbrella and rain coat on top of my sweats and Uggs.

Tried to stop and get a movie but the library is closed.

I meet the library ladies again for our birthday breakfast. Then, I'm off to Caro's to cook Chinese and do taxes. I just got one 1099 on Friday.

I did the laundry and have Lacy snuggled on my lap. She becomes a snuggler in the cold. She's better than a heating pad.

I have the week off for winter break. Last year I went in. Not this year.

I bought brown rice to swap it out of my diet. Flour is next.

Mt beets are super, I cooked them in OJ from my trees.

I've committed to reading

Hunger Games

for Teen Read Week at one H S. Another is in March.

I'm going to make my sea scallops in white wne and lemon with rice and mushrooms.
Then butterbut squash soup with cellert, carrot, cumin, cloves, broth, salt,pepper sour cream or yogurt and chives.

Happy Valentine's Day !

Hugs and kisses to you all...I gave myself the gift of health and dragged this body to the gym.

A weird thing happened. As Nice gift for me. I swam 20 laps and I lost 14 lbs in one day? Marilyn says it's water.

For Valentine's Day I made Oatmeal with raspberries and strata for lunch and for dinner roasted beets, brown rice mushrooms and scallops. I had fresh pineapple for dessert. Not good for my sugar either beets or pineapple but I splurged.

I made stuffed red and yellow peppers with pork and cube steak with mushrooms and brown rice. I was tempted to get a lobster tail but got 3 scallops instead.

It's been rainy.

If the battery light is flashing do I need to get another or do they plug in? I guess I buy another.... I must have left it on.

There is snow on the hills

My new warm Uggs, ugly and I have the slippers too, my last New Year sale splurge



Me frozen in layers Monterey 12/08


green foothills 1/09

There is snow on the foothills this morning. I need to take a picture. I usually love the mustard in the fields this time of year. Napa has a mustard festival. This year with us at only 50 percent of normal rain and the season almost over, we may be in water rationing soon. No crops, no watering lawns and car washing. There was a seying in 77 something like this We don't flush for number 1 only 2. It was cuter. The restaurants are asked to reduce water too. There have long been signs on the tables saying please ask for water.

Today I go to Brentwood for my job interview. The first one up there 11/2 hrs. away came to naught. They did send me a note saying if I wanted to be in the sub pool let them know and the position was reposted.

At the librarian's meeting there was more pizza, this one much better than Roundtable from Pizza Uno, one with spinach and pine nuts and another vegetarian with tomato slices red onion and olives and spinach. I don't like olives and am not too fond of red onions.

I gave my aides their Valentine's chocolate fix, peanut butter cups,on truffles or a heart of m and m's. They are all going to be hyper not to mention it's right before our 10 days off.

One of my student TA's brought me a long stem red rose. It's beautiful.

I remember the first one I got as a sophomore in high school was delivered in a dozen rose box by a friend of Bruce. He wrote on the card a quotw drom Dorothy Parker: A single rose he sent me since we met.... "I doubt if it's perfect but I thought it appropriate" I brought it in, cut most of the stem off and put it in a bud vase. I didn't know you pay extra for the long stem. I hear roses are up to $100 a dozen this year. Still, I wouldn't mind having some. I did get a Valentine. I sent mine out in Jan. One I gave today to another teacher. Three sang songs, one to the teacher, one for Clare and one for Libby. They can drive their Mom's crazy.

Why are corn chex 10 calories less than 10 rice chex?


I left for my interview a little after 10 later that I wanted, held up by a class, I missed the turnoff and cut over near Oakland and sat on the ramp stopped in traffic for 45 minutes. I called the place and told them, or left a message and arrived none the less, while they were all out to lunch nearly an hour late. I turned around and came back through their quaint little town. It had a historic downtown and I had never been there before. I stopped to take some pictures, but I couldn't. The flash or something was amiss and the lens kept closing.

The drive once I got near Livermore and away from civilization was beautiful, lush, green, cows grazing, snow on Mt. Diablo in Contra Costa Co. and windmills and vineyards and mustard. I may get another chance next week.

I went swimming tonight. It was hard to pull myself out then I forget the 5 towels in the dryer and had to turn around to get them.

The chair

Caro in Monterey



The Book fair

I got a call back from the insurance agency saying the chair was covered. The took all my facts to the principal this morning. He argued the station was not a sitting station. I counterargued, I could not stand for 2 hrs and it was unreasonable to expect that and that all the other middle schools have similar chairs and we have made accomidations to sit by removing a shelf below the desk to accomidate feet. I gave hime the number of the claims person and I am waiting to see. She said that she had never see a school system non accomidate a worker....

I had 2 classes and a literary magazine mtg today. I found one more book fair worker and she got her pizza and am trying to track down another.

Swam 21 laps tonight

Lacey in a Sunbeam keeping me company


Remarkable! I swam an hour tonight and lost 4 lbs. since the last weigh in over the weekend. That's a lost fast. I usually weigh in in the morning and this was at night too before dinner buy after breakfast and lunch and a snack and a nap. I officially smell like chlorine again. You can tell I'm swimming. The spinner to dry swimsuits aye the lining to the crotch of my new swimsuit. I saw threads coming out and stopped it but still!!!!!

It wasn't as crowded tonight. It was rainy out. People stayed home. My crocs we in the car. I wore my Ugg boots in to the pool but once wet didn't. Boy that floor was cold.

The pizza party went well. Kids are empty holes. I don't know where they put it all. I have 2 teaching assistants that can put away a 1/2 pizza between them. One wanted to but a whole medium pizza for himself. I did order it and the total came to 113. and I gave the guy a 20 dollar tip. Glad it;s not my money. I also got grape, apple and cranberry raspberry juice and water to drink and paper products.

I heard from the bookkeeper that my Principal will not pay for the 2nd chair mandated by Workman's comp. and my Dr. I will talk to him tomorrow but I got mad. This one I will fight. Checking things out at the circ. desk is not comfortable anytime but one can only stand for so long and the chair there one is a stool and the other barely a chair with a back. I've brought in cushion's and a pillow for the back which helps but it's not enough. I'd like to sue his ass. Wonder if I could file suit? Ever heard of burning bridges? Was it yesterday I thought I had a nice discussion with him.

It's cold.

Gas was 2.15 when I filled up yesterdat for 15.00 and it went up today 4 cents.

They are talking about water rationing.

I went...

Swimming at night is different. There are a lot of kids, Laps don't start until 8. It is crowded, but, you don't have to rush to work.
What disturbs me is the 7 and 8 year old boys who stare while you change, The sign on the door clearly says 5 and under. I told the mom that there was a family dressing room.

MICHAEL SENT ME THE PROBABILITY OF DIABETES CHART TO FILL OUT AND I'm 90 PERCENT THERE IF NOT ALREADY THERE. I need to exercise every day.
Everything has sugar and white flour and even carrots, broccoli, fruit and potatoes and bread have carbs.

Tonight I gad a stuffed pepper with rice ground beef and tomato sauce with mushrooms,

Last night I made a strata with eggs, bread, Gouda,ham, Cheddar and mushrooms.

Tomorrow is the pizza party for the kids.

The sun is shining the rain has stopped

I awoke at 5:30 and contemplated a trip to swim, but on Monday's at 6:30 the swim team meets at 6:30 and I'd have to get out or meander in the shallows or just shower early and do my hair and get to work early do I stayed in bed till almost 7.

I watched the Grammy's last night. I didn't know any of the bands except two individual people and enjoyed Jennifer Hudson and Paul McCartney. I didn't know he had a new song out. I don't like rap and even with New Orleans in the background and the minstrel jazzy umbrella carrying and jumping and break dancing to Lil Wayne I couldn't understand his lyrics. I thought he put the stereotype back. I saw his interview with Katie Couric and know he had had arrests for week but he has an 8 yr. old daughter. I wish he was more concerned with being a role model for her.

I'm off to the Dr. again. My back has been bothering me. Although the state has ruled my disability claim to be closed and over I am still in pain. I guess I need to lose weight and swim to help the arthritis.

I'll try swimming tonight and see what the traffic is like. I know a lot of people go after work, but from 7-8, maybe not.

My blood pressure is 120/86. That's good. There was an error on my paperwork , a typo that said.08 instead of 80 so the recommended acupuncture was disallowed and the state disallowed the claim and our carrier the same so she is going to resubmit the paperwork and suggests I see a spine Dr. too for a 2nd opinion.

My estimate for the car came back too. For a new multi display screen the cost is $921.50. I was thinking maybe 500.... ouch! I wonder if it would be worth a used one. He said he would give me a 10 percent discount on parts and labor. That was not including tax. So, that knocks off 100 dollars or so. There are reconditione units and I am looking into that. Apparently this year's unit had a lot of problems and there is one guy out there wanting to start a class action law suit. It can range from 4-850 for a unit not new and Toyota. There are over 2000 postings about it. Did you know that a parts person won't look up a part without a VIN? They want to make sure it is the right part for the car! The search continues since I have a navigation system, the cost in more.

I tried a Cottage Cheese Double with pineapple. It was horrible. The stuff that was pineapple was not real pineapple. In the future I will continue to buy pinapple eith crushed or chunks and reduced fat cottage cheese and get two servings. One serving of these convenient but icky combo was 130 calories and 5.5 oz. didn't seem like that much.

"Service" - 69 dollars for the privlidge of looking

I finally took my car into the dealer this morning. My morning is 10. They opened at 7. They do regular hrs till 6. 7 days. They will charge 69 dollars or so to look and see if it's just a fuse. Since it lights up initially it is not likely say's me.

I got the c. van home by 12:30 and am looking at a 3-4 hr wait. I was hoping to get to the gym and the library. I forgot my garage door opener so had to go around back and enter through the sliding glass door.
This time I dropped a broom stick in the track. I was going to get pvc pipe cut, Bob says some metal thing but couldn't manage to get myself to the store. This broom/plant stake seems to work. It's been unlocked for almost a year.
I got a call at about 4:30 and back there by 4. I need a whole new display screen. He didn't take any money and can't get any details on the amount of money the thing will cosy since the Toyota place is closed on weekends. He will call me tomorrow.

I unlocked the side garage door when the van came now with it raining its too swollen to shut the dead bolts. The bottoms will have to do.

I think i have some thing living in the garage. When I was banging the door something moved. Finally in the morning it locked.

Lacy jumped off the fence and came in too.

I got to the gym and did my swimming. I tried putting conditioner on under my swim cap. Well. no surprise, it popped off again and again. Finally I washed the conditioner our and tried again

Then I stopped at the market for water and ham for the ham and Gouda strata I plan to make tomorrow.

I'm off to swim

I watched my cooking shows, slept in and couldn't pull myself out at 7 so now I'm off to swim.
I swam 14 laps and went to the store. It amazed me I was 2 hrs. at the gym.

I forgot to take the car in. Fortunately they are open on Sunday. The library is too. It was closed at 6 when I got out of the gym.

Fell off the horse and back in the saddle again. Marilyn, my friend and nutritionist says I need to loose weight (gee, I knew that!) and that I am borderline just above diabetic levels - No white flour no fruit juice. Got to get the glucose numbers down. I am just over the top of the diabetic numbers of 121 and I am 131.
Amazingly I pit on 8.5 lbs. in a month.

I made some stuffed peppers for dinner and a scalloped potato and ham casserole. I was going to make a strata too but I forgot to get the bread where I have it stashed out of the freezer at school.

My oranges are ripe.

The weather was beautiful. I'll have to get the ladder out and pick some. I wish I had gotten the aluminium one. The wooden one had split and it's too heavy and weathered from my leaving it out. Time to replace it.

I hate slap stick comedy. (the Pink Panther is on)

Another theft...this time from my office again for the 2nd time

Back to Safeway This morning before school I stopped I to pick up the paper cups and plates and some carrots for our pizza party next Wed. I forget something each time.

"Teachers teach because they care. Teaching young people is what they do best. It requires long hours, patience and care." --Horace Mann



It's raining today. It rained yesterday .02 percent. This looks a bit more.


I couldn't log. in to my emigrant account because I forgot a maternal grandmothers name. I never new her. I only recently found out that Mom and M.H. and Jack had an aunt that died as an infant.

With the fasting glucose 131 I will retest over the holiday weekend. For teachers it is nice to be off the whole week from the 2/14th-22nd.

Since this is Black History Month I've been putting up posters all over with quotes from Lincoln..."If you think slavery is OK try living as one." to Langston Hughes and Malcom X and Martin Luther King, Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Booker T Washington....W.E.B Du Boise.

Daffodil days are coming. I signed up to sponsor it at our school. People sign up for a ten dollar bouquet of daffodils and on that Monday the kids bring them and they are dead by Friday. You can offer one to a friend and or another patient or buy a vase or one for a person in the hospital.

This year I'll get one for me and send one to my niece Emily who needs a liver transplant. She is going to do the cancer 3 day walk in Chicago and is looking for sponsors. If you would be interested in donating to her walk or to daffodil days or have a liver with AB blood let me know. She has 3 young children and will need the transplant within 10 years. It only takes a piece or yours and regenerates.

I had some (4) bright wholesome volunteers come from Bellarmine a prep school and try to help my lowest TA's learn shelving et al they didn't relate well to shadowing. I was able to have then do some excel forms for me though. What a difference in students and intelligence!!

Around lunch time the four dollars in fines got stolen from my desk top. I have had it there for 3 days and covered by Post it notes thought it ok. WRONG. I knew better but was busy.

Previously, One of my TA's returned a note to me with another 6 or 7 dollars with a note saying they were sorry that another TA had stolen the money and given some to them and they felt too guilty so they were returning it. I asked them a=each if they had written me a note none of them squealed and I showed the note to the principal. Today, I turned it in to the principal for the higher authority to handle it.
TGIF

Went to the grocery store this morning

I wanted to make some potato cheese soup so I stopped at Safeway this morning. For some reason the commute was light. Then I realized I forgot to get juice and water for our party Wednesday. I stopped by the yogurt place and dropped off a letter and showed my id and gave her a business card and got a $5 dollar gift card.

I was there yesterday but she wanted to see id so I went back today. Yesterday I got frozen chocolate yogurt and some poppyseed blueberry bread. Today I got two loaves of the cinnamon bread she carries from a bakery down the street. One for me and one for the secretary in the office. ( She bought it from me)

I picked up the water and juice for our party and stopped the pizza place to drop off a letter and get a menu and see if they deliver. They do.

Now to turn in my receipts. I forgot the cups and plates. and carrots
Today my 6th period TA's came in starved and I cut my sandwich into 4th's then they ate my celery and carrots and broccoli and wanted more. Boy's are empty chasms.

I turned in my 20 pages of application, resume, transcripts and credentials.

I had my TB test read. negative. in HI it was pos I had them so often.

I stropped in a dinner place that gives you meals for a month all prepared. You go and get them and pay 19. for 3 servings per meal. Interesting concept. The risotto chicken interested me.


I went to the p.o. for an express mail envelope to deliver my application to West Valley/Mission Community College. I need to copy my transcripts and add a resume. When did resumes start to get taylored for every job? I guess they should always have been. That's why I sent out so many with so little response. maybe?

I need to get my tb check tested too on the way.

applications take forever

First you need to copy a pdf file to word then since its now a text file clean it up. a pain it takes hours

Now I'm ready to do the supplemental resume but they don't want a cover letter,
A Community college application is 10 pages plus licences and transcripts and resume. It can't be faxed. I'll deliver it tomorrow since it's due.

I have an interview next Fri. the 13th. at a h.s. an hour away. How good is that?

I can play the tape but the car goes in on the weekend to see why the total display screen is blank.

Free Grand Slam at Denny's

Go to Denny's between 6 and 2 for a free Grand Slam.

I went AT 6:30 AND AT 10 and both times lines were out the door. I didn't hAVe time to wait.

I did go to see the Dr. have a TB test, get blood draws for 3 tests and get 4 perscriptions.

We took in 3300 dollars in the book fair and it gt picked up this morning.

So much for the PTA help.

I want to throw a pizza party for the TA's and CREW members.

This year I'm only taking 450 dollars in books. The rest I want in cash.

I got a call for a job in Brentwood to interview.

I saw the opening to the Superbowl then napped till the last 5 minutes.

I put in my resignation on Friday effective 6/30

I canceled the long term disability application.

Now that I got a battery for the key fob, the whole display system is not working on the car. It says external system not connected sounds like an electrical problem.
no map
no music
mo heat
no display....
the radio works

Gas is 2.02
The temp is 74

My candy binge showed up on my fasting glucose it was 131 up 20 points. not good,,,I was borderline before

I'm reading The Brass Verdict by Michael Connelly.

Can't start the car

For several mornings I couldn't start the car for many minutes. When I push the button it says no key, jet somewhere in the car is the key fob.

Starting in Dec. or longer the remote wouldn't beep to lock and unlock. Today I got a new battery and now it all works again.
