Done for the week - woot
I am done for the week here - we had a staff lunch today - which was nice - we all ate lunch together on Zoom for the one year anniversary of work from home and had a few laughs and then we were dismissed for the week. We have tomorrow off for Spring Holiday and they gave us this afternoon as a freebie. So nice long weekend here. Yay. I am ready for the weekend. It looks like we will be going back to the office in the Fall in some manner. Not sure how it will look - maybe part time or something. That is what our VP said today. Will see what that means.
I think I am going to Santa Cruz this weekend - on Saturday - just to look around and get some oceanside time. I really like it there and it is very peaceful on the cliffs by the water there. I love looking at the waves crashing on the rocks there. The weather is supposed to be nice this weekend so will be great. We go to Woodstock Pizza for a meal and the bookstore there is amazing. Nice big independent bookstore. They have a great bakery too. We make a few stops there.
So the realtor showed the house today to a few people - mostly investor types. Not very nice people. One guy wanted to destroy our lovely yard and pave it over for parking. That kind of thing. My neighbor, B*** - is calling the rental board to see what our rights are. Here we go again. I hope this guy did not get it. Not a nice guy and I don't see him appreciating the charms of our house. Anyhoo. That happened today. Not good.
I figured out what to do about the car and will be getting a new transmission. It is lots of money but I have it covered. It is much less than a new car and there are many reasons why I cannot afford a new car or a car payment right now. So that is what I am doing. Not going into the ins and outs of the decisions but I feel better now that I know what I am doing on that. Just have to plan it all and it is easier to get this done with the work from home thing. More able to leave the car for some days in the shop.
OK. That is about it for me. I am glad it is my weekend now. Hope you are doing well where you are. Cheers to you! Poof, like magic this is cross-posted from - Dreamwidth! Please comment where you prefer.
