Thank you -- that's what I wanted to know. I just requested a sample of the first book. Will check it out!

w00t!!! We're getting off an hour early!

krisk · 04-20-2009, 01:49 PM

hey you guys! you've been venting and ranitng a lot, there are still SOME good things!

I quite accidentally/inadvertently got a private office WITH a window and a door that locks! w00t!

I found out yesterday that the tiny little hole in the wall town that is closest to where I moved to here in Cali has a Chinese restaraunt owned by one of the former top chefs in San Francisco! the last sunday of every month he puts on a "wine club" dinner. for $40 he serves a full on 5 course meal complete with the appropriate wine for every course! this month the entrees are;

seared ahi tuna with white bean and sausage ragout
rack of lamb (and I can't remember what goes with it)
mini beef wellington with pear salad in a basalmic reduction

I made my reservations last night! who'da thunk it!? out in podunkville!

I've been wondering how your new life is going, but apparently, it's delicious. ENJOY!!

krisk · 04-20-2009, 03:07 PM

a few bumps and stumbles but that is to be expected.

krisk · 04-28-2009, 03:35 PM

I think I may have found a place!!!!!!!

Awright!! Tell us about it (and perhaps that "last straw") when you feel like it and get the chance. We love to share woes & happies!

zelda_pinwheel · 04-28-2009, 04:12 PM

krisk · 04-28-2009, 04:18 PM

lets hope! it's a lady high school principal and her teenaged daughter. very reasonable rent in what is, according to my co-workers, a very tony part of the county! on 2.5 acres.

zelda_pinwheel · 04-28-2009, 04:24 PM

I haven't spoken with him yet. I just looked at my bank account and he has not cashed one of the checks so I put a stop payment on it. cash only (well checks and cash) that he has in posession takes him through this day! (coinkydink?) of course there is an unanswered $1100 of food and house supplies... *sigh*. I will take as much food with me as possible. I meet the lady at this other place tonight, and if all goes well.... well I have nothing holding me back! my furniture consists of an air mattress, TV and a stool! then it is my rifles, clothes and jewlery... and the critters of course! but for the airmattress, stool and food, I don't have any more than I came with, so 2 van loads would do it! might have to take part of tomorrow off, but it would be totally worth it!
