Gosh... is the weekend over already? I was going to say that I'm going to regret not making more of my weekend... but it was what it was. Yesterday was focused on the football game, today was focused on getting my office moved from one side of the complex to another (which took quite a bit of time). I took the pups with me and wore them out going from one side of the complex to another. At least I had a hand-truck to use, that helped! I have 7 boxes of books now stacked in my new office... I *need* a bookcase for my new office. Hopefully I can beg around the new workplace and find someone that has an extra one that I can use/have.
On a side note, I got an email from my middle daughter, one of the colleges that came up looking for a Professor in her field, is the University of Hawaii! *smiles* Her top three choices are Reed College, in Portland; St. Olaf College near Minneapolis, and the University of Chicago. It'll be interesting to see where she ends up!
Not much happening tonight... I watched "The Amazing Race" and have been reading on the web. The ship I plan to sail on next November (2010), went through a severe storm south of Italy on it's way back to Barcelona. It sounds like several cabins were damaged with broken windows to boot. It must have been a scary night in the storm! I'm sure it will all be fixed before I board next year (and they are sailing back out tomorrow with another group of people, so they must be able to fix those type of things fairly readily if they are able to go sail again). I guess those that were on the cruise had to miss a couple ports and those leaving on the cruise this week will have to miss 1 port (because they are leaving a day late). As someone said... I'd rather be on the ship missing a port, than at work! (or something like that!). I'm counting down my time to my cruise in November. I fly out a month from today. Wow... hard to believe it is coming so fast! I'm hoping I can get everything into 1 LARGE suitcase & a carry-on.
I did talk to Bette today, she & Walt are coming down this week, but will be over on the Big Island for 10 days. If I had the $$ I would have flown over to see them next weekend... but alas, with my trip coming up and other expenditures, I can't afford to go. Oh well... I'll see them in a few more months.
Okay... guess I'll sign off. I need to finish up my laundry and get things ready for work tomorrow.
Aloha!
