Summertime and the living is easy

I have been enjoying my life of leisure for the last couple of weeks. I've been watching watching game shows and eating bon bons...
OK, I've also been applying for jobs, transferring bank accounts, and planning for the move to the house. We finally got confirmation that we are closing on the house in Albany on Monday, Aug 18. I'll have a week to clean and paint before our stuff is delivered from storage. Of course, I've had to spend a lot of time on the phone with realtors, lawyers, mortgage brokers and relocation company representatives trying to confirm dates and details about the move. I can't seem to get direct answers from anyone. It's a lot like hearding cats.
Speaking of cats, Marci bolted out of the apartment door a few days ago just after Judy left for work. I was in my pajamas and bare feet, but I went out into the hallway after her. I pulled the door shut and of course it was locked. I ended up having to go from door to door in the building, with Marci in my arms, looking for someone who was home who could call the rental office. Needless to say, the incident left me horribly embarrassed and left Judy highly amused. :-)
The last bit of news to share is that my job interview today at AngioDynamics for the Corporate Training Manager went well. The only problem is that the company is located an hour north of Albany and I just don't think I want to make that kind of commute anymore. I guess I'll keep searching until I find something closer to home...
Signing off for now,
Jaye
