o.k. Lots happening. Attached a pic of Evan and me at the airport. He spent 2 weeks here. I think that this is better than 1 because we all got into our "sinc" and everything flowed. We had a great visit and he was of a great asset to Bob in finishing the floor downtown at the restaurant. I miss him. He is so dear. I think he has truly kicked the alcholol and is ready to move on. Hope he does well in school this semester.
We have harvested 6 tomatoes so far, two of which I have given away. They are so delicious!! Tomatoes take so long to get here. They are very "pithy" and not worth your time, much less the price. We buy only the cherry tomatoes, if we buy at all, so we are thrilled to have some of our own.
We are managing the neighbor's house below us. He has it rented out from mid Jan to April and he is paying us to clean and look after it while tenants are in it. There are two women in it now from Mass. who have no car. Can you imagine? Just think how "needy" they are!! We are doing our best to accomodate, but need to charge for some services as we don't live here for free either. It's quite an experience.
I met a new friend walking about a week ago in Privateer. We have walked together 2 other times. Annie is her name. She has 4 children 19-24. She is divorced and remarried to a guy who got in a car accident when he was 21 and suffered brain damage and has severe short term memory loss. She says she took him "as is". I wonder if he remembers having sex!! LOL Anyway, she is convinced I am the person who should come in to work at the Jolly Dog near Skinny's. She is working too many hours and needs some relief and the owner wants some "mature" help. Think I qualify?? I interview with the mgr. this Sat. Tiny continues to wake us at 4 a.m and then expects to be fed by 4:30. I let her out and go back to sleep.
Bob has just about finished the job downtown. We are waiting for the rest of the crew to finish so he can seal the floor. Pretty good money in this.
Nathan is quite stressed. The deal fell through. Apparantly, there were contingencies - last inspection, etc. The woman brought her fiance thru and he said too much work for the price: $60,000. Realtor put it on the market for $55,000 cash. We only have until March 8 when it will go into foreclosure. He moved completely out of the house last night and is staying with a friend until they can leave by week's end.
All for now.
