I wish! :-)
Matthew's Latin teacher was interviewed by the Broken Arrow newspaper...and so was his wife who is a very good friend of mine, used to be my parent's neighbor and a member of BA CHEF. They really talked up homeschooling, Latin and BA CHEF! As soon as it comes out, I'll scan it and post it.
Have a great time!
Bring me home some dessert please. :-)
Well, whaddaya know. That's pretty cool, 2J!
Well... all fed now...
And what are you up to, 2J? Aren't you gone for the weekend yet? ;-)
(The guys in are in the garage spiffing up their pinewood derby cars for the regional races in the morning.)
I actually gotta wash clothes for in the morning, so I better log off. I'll be back in the morning, while they're at the races!
See ya!

I spent all day at work staring at my cellphone, willing it to ring. I finished my training today, and passed the test, and listened in on live calls, all the while staring at my phone and fretting. Finally, at 4:45 this afternoon, the recruiter called back with the good news ... I'm in with the better job! I start next Wednesday at 1pm (it's a scheduling thing)!
Of course, everyone in charge at the current job had tiptoed out early --- my trainer, getting a jump on her vacation; her boss, getting a jump on the weekend, the big boss also AWOL. So I called the recruiter. I thanked him fulsomely for working so hard on my behalf, told him I'd been presented with an opportunity I couldn't pass up, and offered to work a short notice. He said he understood, and that the notice wasn't necessary. I told him I'd like to come in Monday to personally thank the woman who hired me, and he thought that was a good idea.
So, I'm pretty durn happy, what with this being Friday and all. I leave work, go pick up DaBear, and he's driving us back across town when my cellphone rings. I think it's thenewrecruiter, calling about thenewjob.
Nope, it's a chick from a company I applied to weeks ago, calling to find out if I'm still interested in a software tester job that pays a little more than thenewjob. It's a direct hire, no contracting, with benefits off the bat, in a field closer to programming, with a company that will always make money --- they manufacture gambling machines. So, I'm doing a phone interview with her Monday morning.
I'm being poured on ... and it feels right good!
Happy Friday evening, all!
Ohmygoodness! Wow, that's amazing!
Holey Moley... :-)
