lol it was me
Shouting in joy when I saw the email at 5 am from the buyers realtor that the final piece of the closing puzzle finally fit in
We got back the OK from the VA disbursement
So we can close on the 23rd
The 2nd buyer who has POA for the 1st buyer(who is on deployment) will be back from his 10 day ship deployment on Saturday
lol I bet once he read the email he was ready to paddle the ship back now
Today is "Origami Day" at school
Last night I cut 60 pieces of newspaper to size to make it easier
Hiroko is also bringing a Japanese special treat she made pickled daikon radishes for the kids to try
She will also bring a child size kimono
I am bringing my camera
I will not try the radishes
Not sure if this afternoon will be a visit to the accountant or treading on the treadmill
lol I got quite the upper body work out yesterday while cleaning
I was using the hand held rotary attachment on the dyson to get the dog hair off of all the furniture
Who wants to come to school with me today to make hats and eat pickled radishes !!!
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

Me, me, me! Pick me!! I'd love to learn origami and I'll try radishes. DH doesn't like them. I've never had them pickled, but I'd give it a shot.
Congrats on the closing news, Karla.
Did my 3 miles, did my chores, hubster has taken the car to the car hospital, so I get the a.m. to myself. It'll almost be worth the $400 bill he's going to have to pay when it's all said and done. The good news is that it's about $100 less than the bill that the Toyota dealer wanted us to pay.
Not much else is new. I think I'll visit my usual threads, then head for the shower, then read the paper on the front porch and enjoy the quiet.
Walk with Max is out of the way, and this afternoon will be bendy sidy things with coffee cans instead of weights
Well Bob's restore of the deck is taking place. This is a new product and it seals the old wood (even the small cracks you get in older wood), it is pretty neat product and Tricia is taking pictures. What it reminds me of is the simulated decking that is coming out. I am still waiting until it is done to judge but Tricia is happy so that is the only important thing.
Found 4 more jobs to apply to today, they are with the big hospital in the downtown medical mile. I used to work there years ago and am not sure if I have any pull left in HR but I think next Monday I might walk a resume into HR (after I fill out the application online and submit my resume today). I think one person may still be there and she might just be high enough on the realm of order for it to make a difference. Not what you know but who you know goes a long way
Gotta get, did not get far with laundry yesterday and I want everything done for the rest of the week today!
hey all
Well the kids love loved the class today
They had a blast
but OMG the pickled radishes were stinky I mean stinky with a Capitol S
But 90 % of the kids really liked them
When I walked back in to the first class after the 3rd one you could still smell them
rofl a teacher from another class walked in and said it smelled like dirty diapers
Hiroko kept saying " they are stink"
lol I put them in the trunk when I picked her up
the smell traveled to inside the car I am now airing it out
Ouch on the car RD bill but glad you were able to save some over the dealer
lol I know what yo mean about having your morning
Thats why I will say "don't you want to go play golf
Sandy how col that you have a "connection" fingers crossed
Evey sometimes a L.susan visit is necessary
Once we are done with closing I am going to invite her over for a day
ok off to call the bank for the last & finally pay off figures I have gotten 2 already that expired
Karla, congrats on the closing!
Your origami day sounds like fun! I would have loved to join you and I definitely would have tasted the radishes
Sandy, good luck! Keeping my fingers crossed for your job search!
Evey, I have the ultimate med agains insomnia - Miguel. Shall I send him over? Since I bring him to the day care each day I "only" have him one hour in the mornings and from3 p.m. on till bed time and he can make me beg for sleep He would be the perfect model for battery or energy advertisements
Today was my gymnastic day. I have a midwife who offers this class and she's really great. We can bring the babies and if they are a little tired or cry, she takes care of them while telling us what to do. My thighs were shaking after class, I had problems driving home
But boy, that does feel good.
Took another 1.5 mile walk - well it was rather wogging since I ran after Miguel on his new bike from time to time.
Now it's off to the sofa to watch a little TV before going to bed.
Have a great evening all!
Came back from Bible study about an hour ago and I have a new puppy. I guess Charlie couldn't help himself and went to pick one up. we need to go get her shots though sometime.
She's a little black dog. Looks to be lab mix but her parents are pit mixes. The parents are small so this puppy will weigh about 35 pounds when she grows up. I'm thinking about the name Lexi but want to think some more about a name.

MM, love that word - wogging. Glad to hear Miguel keeps you moving. That class sounds like it's a real challenge.
