Well, I really wanted to have really good news when I blogged, but that just didn’t happen when I planned. Actually it hasn’t happened at all. 
The good news I wanted to blog about if it happened was that I got a job, but I haven’t heard from Swanson yet. The guy at the interview Wednesday said that Swanson should get ahold of people by today (Thursday). But now it’s almost midnight Friday. 
I think he also said that he was going to do more interviews, so I’m hoping to still hear something. Just incase you were wondering, the place I went to interview at is called Peg Perego. They make strollers, high chairs, car seats, and those battery powered vehicles. I’ll be doing customer service in the call center.
My step-dad’s surgery went well. I believe he has to stay home for at least 6 weeks. He’s still in pain, but he has pain medication for that. I had to take him to his Doctor’s appointment earlier today, plus to the pharmacy to get his prescription, since he’s not supposed to drive for awhile. All in all, he’s doing better.
Early Wednesday morning at about 12:30 a.m. I was sitting at the computer when the lights go out, the air conditioner goes off , and the computer shuts off. Turns out the electricity in the whole surrounding neighborhoods went out. Here it was out for at least 4 hours. It had been thundering and lightning earlier, but it was only raining. We’re still not sure why the electricity went off. So, since we didn’t have any electricity at all, we lit an oil lamp for a little bit, then went out on the screened in porch, and listened to the rain. Then that got boring, and we went to bed.
I have some new pictures, but I haven’t uploaded them to the computer yet, so I’ll save those for the next blog.
I don’t really have any other news that I can think of at the moment. So, I guess this is goodbye…
