So it's the 4th of July. The weather has cooled, YAY. For a few days we hope. Thunderstorms and hail last night, overcast, breezy and comfortable today. It would have been a great day to work outside except Stacy and I are both sick with head colds. We barely made through yesterday at work and so today has been a sleeping and TV day.
Yes, I was finally hired on at the Probation Department. So for the next few years I'll be working again. 8 to 5 Monday to Friday. More money for social security when we'll need it.
Its the fourth, but the town isn't having any fireworks this year as the Chinese earthquakes a few months ago destroyed this towns, along with others I'm sure, 4th of July celebrations.
Last post I'd talked about my radio from my motorcycle. Well, turns out is was fried. The computer is so bad it can't be replaced. It was sent back so I can get any reusable parts and then its junk. Stacy had found the model I have on e-bay and for 3 days I thought I'd have a replacement. Since no one had upped the bid, I wasn't worried when Stacy needed me to go with her on an errand. Get back a few minutes after it closed and someone else got for $2.50 over our bid.
So we'll check a while longer, but I'm thinking now that I'll have to spend the the bucks to replace it.
Everything else is going well as far as we know. Sandy, Laura and Sean were fine the last time we'd talked. Sandy had been lusting after the new 'cheaper' version of the I-phone. That was until last week when AT&T announced the rate plans and 'catches' involved in getting the new phone next week. So now she's looking at another brand.
Brother Mike should be all moved into their new home and working at his new job by now.
I guess that will do it for now. We're watching Rain Man so , back to that for now. Till next time, Tad.

I am working at the new job at Boeing now and really enjoying it! Were all settled into the new home and loving it as well. Don't have that Ocean View anymore, but were adapting well...ha.. We went back to the island over the weekend for a BBQ. It was nice to cruise over Deception Pass again. Would love to have you guys stay with us for sometime, were close to Seattle now and can go spend the day in the City...
Take care Big Brother..
Mike
