Up and Down then Up Again


This picture is of the sunset near the Menan Butte, I just love being here.
Roller Coaster Rides are suppose to be fun, and I suppose at the amusement park they are, but the house selling roller coaster is getting a little tiresome. First it was the radon, and the long distance contract to have that fixed, then the earnest money threats with our agent. We had a closing date set for yesterday, but it got pushed out. The guy buying the house didn't request funds from his 401K soon enough, and they couldn't process the request in time for the closing. So we moved it to next Wed., and that was okay. We jumped through hoops to get our power of attorney to the law firm that is handeling our closing, ( I had to drive to Victor, meet Jim, and get documents notorized, then spent $26 to send it next day air.) Then we found out that the other guys attorney will not be in town next week, so we have moved the closing to Monday the 24th. We would have had plenty of time to spend $3 and have the paperwork to them.

I will be very happy when this ride is over.

On the bright side, I got a job!!! I am going to be working for CWI at the site. They had a shipping receiving position available, and saw my resume. They interviewed me on Tuesday morning, and offered me the job on Tuesday afternoon. The only problem with that was I had gotten an offer from another company that morning. Three months looking for work, and then I get two offers in one day. ( I think Heavenly Father must have a sense of humor. )

Anyway, this job with CWI is the same schedule as Jim is working, (4/10's) with friday's off. More money, and I'm pretty sure that I can do the job and help make a difference and save the company money. I'ts almost exactly what I have been doing with Reichhold for the past 10 years. So as bad as the house sale is, this has made it a lot easier to deal with. Can't wait to get started, and be even busier than I have been the last little while.
