Bad Daughter

I feel terrible. Mom called last night and said she heard I sold my house. I forgot to call her and tell her!! This facebook and blog stuff makes you forget that not everyone is online!! And I should know better, since I just got on facebook and don't keep up my blog very well. Oh well, she said she heard from one of the other kids. Bruce is going to take the computer up to the apartment with him this week, so now that I'm finally online, I'm going to end up completely offline for awhile. When we close on the house, I'll be moving in with some friends of ours here in CO Springs. I'll be there until Walgreens opens. The new timeline is mid-August, for whatever that's worth.

My Favorite Things

Skiing and Beer. What else do you need? I can't believe we haven't figured that out until now!! We went to a kegger at A-Basin this weekend. It was a really good time, even though I really didn't ski that much. Between trying to teach someone to ski and drinking enough beer, I didn't get many runs in. We did meet some people from OH, which was kinda crazy. They were from Lima, and know all about Putnam Co. We brought along the polish golf and polish horseshoes games that the guys made for us when they were out here. Everyone was really interested in the golf game. Someone had a chair on two skis and people were sitting on it and going down the hill. It is actually pretty hard to steer and not tip over. After the party we also hung out at the Goat in Keystone and stayed in a hotel there, since no one was driving anywhere that night!!

Update

I'm sure everyone has been on pins and needles about the sale of our home. Right... So we did get an offer, which was 10,000 below our asking, we countered to a more reasonable arrangement, and the buyer accepted. So we are now under contract!! I don't want to get too excited because there is so much that can go wrong. Still, we are little closer to the ultimate goal. We are not sure what that is anymore, but it does involve moving to the mountains somewhere. I'll keep you posted though.. Hopefully this all makes sense, I am on beer ????

What a Weekend...

This weekend, which of course, is the middle of my work week, pretty much sucked. Customers were so grumpy and impatient, I guess because it was crappy outside. We had someone in lane 2 of our driveway just blaring her horn so she could be helped, when the tech was helping someone in the other lane. When the manager tried helping her, she just yelled at her. That's a good indication of how most of the weekend went. Today, I found out that one of my techs broke her arm, so we are going to be completely short-handed for awhile. And oh yeah, some old dude ran his SUV right into the front door of the store this afternoon. He said his foot slipped off the brake! Here's hoping tomorrow gets over with quickly.
