No word from the first place

I hope that means they haven't decided yet vs being rude.

They had more than 40 applicants , so they may still be interviewing but I suspect they found someone they liked better.

I understand that I may not be anyone’s first choice these days because of my age, why spend time training someone and incorporating them into your crew just for them to walk away in a couple of years

If only you could find a position where the boss wants to retire in a few years.

I did! Two and a half years ago

Richard’s wish was granted when we stopped for lunch at Cracker Barrel in Zanesville. He had chicken and dumplings and I had a chef’s salad.


Mmmm chicken and dumplings

The evening was perfect. No mosquitoes. A cool evening under the trees. The theater almost as I remembered it being.

Shakespeare in Love was fine. The charm of the movie was somewhat lost, but the production worked because the actors weren’t trying to be like the movie, except for the actress playing Judi Dench playing Queen Elizabeth.

The actor I was looking for, Monte Priddy, didn’t do a curtain call and he only had three scenes. But he made the most of them. Turns out this is his 60th year with the company. He started in 1961.

She said that the plane that she was on when she went to Spokane was a propeller plane, but on her trip back to Seattle, it was a larger jet.

I lost Nicky during the pandemic.  It made everything very strange.

Of course, there is never a good time to say goodbye to your baby.

My sister and niece went over there when she got home, and they all ordered pizza, and they ordered one for me.

It'll have to wait until Friday, and I'm sure it'll still be good.

I don't mind leftover pizza...especially when it's reheated in real oven and not a microwave oven. :)

And we can add some extra cheese so that it seems like a fresh pizza.
