I feel like I'm really behind the times here. This past month has been a blur. So far in July I have had problems with my sprinkler system. Fortunately my brother John took it upon himself to come and fix things. Day 1 he worked in 115 degree weather to repair broken underground pipes. Day 2 the connector pipe broke so he had to come back out to fix that. Now all I have to live with is a jack hammer sound when the water comes on. Needless to say I changed the setting so that it no longer waters at 3 in the morning!

I had 2 days of training at work and I am now a Job Coach. The classes were a lot of fun and I learned what the jobs in several other departments entail. All of us in the class, there were 20, decided we liked our current jobs best.

Have been to a few meetings that were held to introduce us to candidates running for local offices in the upcoming elections. I have decided that if it is an encumbent, I'm not voting for them. I also think I'm going to vote for as many females as are on the ballot. They make more sense than the men.

I've gotten line dance classes started here in my senoir community. The instructor I had originally hired backed out 3 days before the class was scheduled. Fortunately I was able to find another teacher who had that night and time open. Whew! Thank you Jo Jo Pupich.

I have also gotten my first comissioned portrait sketch assignment. I am honored and really scared. I don't think I'm as good as others think I am.

I guess that's it for now. I'm trying to figure out how to get a picture or two on this blog. Someday I may accomplish that. Until then - sorry my sight is boring.

TTY all later.

I love line dancing! You will have to teach me some moves.
Look at that computer lingo. Haven't used TTY yet, but like it.

Finally! An update!!! I feel like a nerd because I've been going to town on my blog! Wait... I am a nerd! 8-)
Sounds like you've been a "BSC!" Busy Senior Citizen. That's my new logo for you. I'm going to get you one of those college T-shirts that they make the the cool letters for soroities and have them put "BSC" on it. When people ask, you can tell them what it means, and we'll sell them. We can make MILLIONS!!! Hee hee! Love you Mom!
