Good morning everyone!!

So where are all you early risers today....hmmm...hmmmmm!

So the person who was supposed to show up at 6 to pick up the window air conditioner didn't show up - so back to kijiji it goes if the second person that emailed doesn't want it.

I'm really glad I did buy the space bags.

Moving is a weird thing.

Mmmmm, Tims. I had ####### coffee this morning. Didn't grind the beans right or sumpin.

I think I must have missed the space bags conversation cause I haven't a clue what you're talking about, nor what they are.

Well, I guess I'm gone for the day. Happy packing, Trailmix!

Over and out.

These are the space bags, they are just the ones you suck the air out of with a vacuum, I seem to have a lot of linens (no surprise really but anyway):

I know. We always knew that summer had come when the Dairy Freeze re-opened.

flames...those are so funny! Very cute!

Here's morning coffee... have to run and do more training today. This is a little different in that one half day a week I'm going to be hearing and investigating elder abuse incidents. Either from family, or the nursing home. Have to interview the resident, and others and make recommendations to the coordinator to follow up with the State. Part of my training today will be going out with the supervisor to handle an actual incident. Will report on my experience tomorrow! Might be a vent though

Enjoy your day!

Oh dear. That's bound to be a little rough on you, Carla. Hope it's just minor and you get through it okay. The nice thing is that you're there to help make improvements, so it's not all bad. Have a great day!

Best of luck!! Dont go into too much info on here (names, institution, etc) otherwise ur committing a HIPAA Violation!

[trailmix 77]

Good morning everyone!

Well I didn't really do much packing yesterday, I kind of played games and did housework, however! Put an ad in kijiji for our sofa and chairs, to give away - last night the people came over and took those and the little stereo stand and the book case!

The living room is looking decidedly empty. Two end tables, a lamp, an area rug and the cat carrier and a tv of course.

Marco just called, left voice mail....new way to talk to Marco...voice mail
