Bathroom Remodeling: 2000-04-24

Monday, April 24th, 2000

Dear   [Lynn],

Happy Easter to you too. The morning talk yesterday made it feel like a holiday. Change of routine I guess.

I did not receive an Easter basket, but did manage to enjoy some chocolate cake and a few other assorted sweets over the weekend. The weight loss progress definitely stopped over the weekend. Ah well, back on track today. :-)

We’re putting up the new shower curtain today in the new bathroom, and hopefully will get the sink installed tonight.

Later.

Rental Car

Monday, April 24th, 2000

Dear   [Lynn],

On the car you want to rent: I’m thinking it would be a good idea for us to reserve the car now instead of waiting until you get here. Mom says that there aren’t very many cars available in this area, and she thought that finding one once you arrive might be tricky. What do you think?

Lynn’s Visit

Monday, April 24th, 2000

Dear   [Lynn],

I’m not going on vacation until Wednesday afternoon, just before we leave to meet you.

Feel free to give my phone number to your family. I’m in the book anyway. :-) And even if I were not, that would be NO problem.

Obligations. Yep. I feel that stress at work quite often. I wish I had an answer besides (just do what you have to do, even if it makes you very busy). But, alas, I have no other answers. :-)

Later.

Typing Tabbo

Monday, April 24th, 2000

Dear   [Lynn],

Yep, will be cleaning under the bed tonight.

I’m a couple days late on the laundry, but it’s sloshing now.

On Tabbo, and his tail across the keyboard: Do you vacuum your keyboard? I periodically take one of those horse hair brush attachments for the sweeper, and vacuum my keyboards. Keeps any foreign matter from getting down into the electronics and contacts.

Later.

Warming Apple and Orange

Monday, April 24th, 2000

Dear   [Lynn],

“Conservation of effort?” Just a euphemism for LAZINESS. :-) You said it right the first time.

No, the email message you sent from the Land Trust looked okay. Just your email address was formatted differently than usual.

Glad you liked Eudora. There may be an upgrade available now. I need to check that sometime, when I get some time. :-)

I have an orange and an apple warming on my desk, waiting for me to consume them sometime today. Not sure what else I’ll eat.

Later.

Tid Bits: 2000-04-24

Monday, April 24th, 2000

Dear   [Lynn],

I’m very lucky. I love receiving those weekend emails.

Yes, the email thing gets quite overwhelming sometimes. But it’s nice to hear from you, as long as you don’t mind getting most of my responses to your emails on the phone. :-)

Doing laundry this morning.

Sunny blue skies today, about 45-ish degrees right now.

Got the May 21st software installed in CERT this morning. No problems so far. But I am bracing for them. I know there will be some.

More later.
