Hey all,
Well, the weather is turning a bit nippy in the mornings now and then by the afternoon it is 70 degrees!! Gotta love Fall in Los Alamos!!
Mailed off 9 boxes this week via USPS/FedEx/UPS full of Kalyn's clothes and books and shoes and jackets and gloves and scarves...whew the list goes on and on!! Her room is just about empty and ready for Tyler to move in!! She's leaving a few things here and so either myself or Tyler will help ourselves to the extra junk she leaves behind!! She's very excited to be moving on and she will be missed dearly around here.
Tyler and I moved him last weekend, so we are glad to be done with it. We borrowed Kevin's truck and went and picked up the couch and his bed and stuffed whatever else would fit along the sides of those big items. Then last Sunday, we each drove down and got the rest of his stuff!! We took it all to his storage shed...well, except for the stuff he wanted at the house...and now his shed is full of his goodies. He is thinking of staying for a year and then move again. Depends on if he gets his bills all paid off. He is absolutely loving his job at the Coffee Booth and the manager there, is in the process of purchasing the place, so he asked Tyler if he would like to be one of the managers when HE owns it! I thought that was very flattering! Tyler is really pumped about it! He will be watching the cats and house while I am away. Hopefully no parties will be thrown!!! :)
Work is going well at the bank. I had my annual review and got a small 2.5% raise, so that will help a little bit. Comes out to $40 a paycheck right now, but after December is when our medical benefits change, so hopefully it won't dig into my new wages too much. Gym job is good too. I asked about a raise there when I get back to my regular schedule in November and the owner told me to remind her and we will chat. :) Haven't gotten a raise there in over 2 years, so it's time.
I'm also getting really excited about the trip and seeing everyone! Should be a grand time!
Tj and Diana will be here early next week. They will be here a couple weeks for Balloon Fiesta in ABQ. We will get to see them probably one evening before we head out early next Saturday am. Will be nice to see them too.
Well, I am getting sleepy so will cut this short and go to bed. Stay well everyone and until next time.....

Labor Day!!!
Hey all!
Had a very productive weekend and still movin along with it!! I got a couple of cupboards reorganized, general cleaning done, work outs, yardwork, watched a season and a half of "Dexter" and now on my way to go clean for the Courtright's!! Today, Kalyn is off so we will be packing up boxes to mail up to Minnesota. We will be driving her little 2001 Honda Civic up there with her dog and then a little puppy to drop off with Shane, so there won't be much room for anything but clothes and essentials! I hope there is room for my stuff that I need to take for traveling too! LOL I will be packing very light as far as I can tell!
Things are going well. Tyler has been here a lot more and he needs to get all his stuff moved in here and to his shed before the end of Sept. from his house in Santa Fe. He is really loving his new job. I'm sure it's very hard for him to have to move back home. I'm trying to be easy on him and not say too much. He comes and goes and does his own thing which is totally fine. He's a quiet guy and I'm sure everything will work out for him.
Kalyn has three more weeks of work at the pizza place and she has 4 weeks of babysitting. She took on a babysitting job when the college started here for a friend of mine who has two little girls, ages 3 and 2 or something. The girls really like Kalyn so I'm glad we were able to help out my friend with a babysitter issue. Kalyn babysits on Tues, Wed and Thurs for Sara and then the other days of the week she works at Home Run. Kalyn got her account opened at US Bank on Friday. She needed an account for up there and she will keep her account here open as her "emergency car fund" account.
Well, I must run and go clean for a bit. Mr. Courtright has had some health issues and is not doing well. He is pretty much bed-ridden now so Mrs. C needs me more now that they have all these people in and out of the house to help Mr. C. I also went and saw Keith! He is at Sombrillo which is a nursing home. He was very glad to see me and I may try to go see him today too.
Talk to you all soon...keep in touch..until next time...
