FRIDAY

Finally got the application format working, finished the job application and sent it out.  Still plenty of time to get dressed and downtown for the on-site typing test.  Scored 75 wpm but with the sloppy keyboard had three errors... I know I caught three or four others as I went alongm, too.  Now the long wait to see if I get a call for an interview.  I worked at the LPD records bureau back in 1973-75 and really found the job to be highly interesting.  Granted there will have been changes in procedures after this many years but the basic job should be very similar and I would really like to do this for the next 10-15 years.

SATURDAY

Today was our 'holiday' driving up to Omaha to hit the World Thrift stores there and eat wonderful food.  We had our favorite lunch at Thai Pepper and our favorite dinner at Cheesecake Factory.  We always order the same combinations and share appetizers and entrees for the variety.  We both think the Thai Lettuce Wraps at Cheesecake Factory is the most perfect food anywhere!!!

Leofwyna found a lot of scrapbooking and Christmas stuff at the thrift stores and then went totally wild at Whole Foods at the end of the day.  I found another old bed shirt with a cotton gauze foundation so I'll be having a new veil/headwrap.. mainly I behaved and talked myself out of things.
SUNDAY

While Leofwyna slept today I worked on sampler crazy pieced blocks for the next quilt top.  When she got up I got busy stripping my bed and putting on the flannel sheets for winter and the nice clean wool blankets.  Getting in bed tonight will be heavenly!

I also emptied my closet, cleaned it and swapped winter for summer clothes.  I sorted through the summer stuff and pulled the tired, stained or worn items.  I hung a new canvas shoe tower and got the shoes up off the floor ( my previous one collapsed last spring and the closet floor has been a mess all summer.

Since Leofwyna has a CD player in her 'new' van we got out Little Sister's box of CD's and chose several to put in the two vehicles.  We want to give everything we don't recognize a listen so we know what we want to let go at the last rummage sale next spring.

Time to go upstairs and deal with the kitchen before we watch Amazing Race which we taped while we were being busily productive earlier.
