WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY!!!!
Posted: Wed Apr 08, 2009 9:03 amGOOD MORNING ALL!!
The temperatures here in Olando are record-breaking cool, but still warm enough for Laura and me to hang out at the pool and Jacouzzi-----which is finally, as of yesterday, UP AND RUNNING!!!!
Yesterday was great for two reasons----I had just ridden my bike to the pool and was ensconced in the Jacouzzi when my son showed up with a shopping list in his hand. I assumed he wanted to check out the temp of the water and make sure the jets were finally working. I asked him where he was going, as I hadn't known he had any plans for yesterday. He casually, with an uncontrolable uplift of the corners of his mouth, said ,"Oh I have a few things to do------before I begin my new job on the 27th!!!"
I shrieked and clapped and danced around the pool, crying with tears of joy for him! (Luckily we were the only people there!) If he had ever designed a job for himself, it couldn't be any more perfect than this one. He is an aquatic entomologist/fisheries biologist, with full benefits, paid vacations, bonuses, etc. etc!! They provide him with work official uniforms, so he doesn't even have to update his wardrobe!
SOOO....we still had 10.00-OFF coupons for the Lobster Feast place left over from our first foray there, and the 4 of us went out to dinner there again to celebrate! (I managed to pack away another 8 lobsters!) What a perfect joy to be here to see my son get his first specially-designed job!! YIPPEEEE!!!!! Both of my kids (that I raised) are now officially employed and on their way in life. I can turn over the expenses for this house to Melissa and Weldon, and put all that money that I have been paying forever for this place toward my 2010 retirement!!!!
What an amazing day!
Coffee is hot here, Hazlenut Creme, and the sun is shining. Hope you all have a fantastic day!!
