This week I was off to Hot Springs to visit Mom – John and I aren’t planning to take any time off from work over the holidays, so I figured I should take advantage of a Mexican holiday and make it a four-day weekend. Last night I had a great visit and dinner with Dail and Nancy – we sure do miss them!
Hurricane Ike blew through Hot Springs last night – I saw three trees down during my morning walk today.
Last Sunday, several TDYers arrived in Juarez, including our A-100 classmate, Cathy. John and I picked her up in El Paso, then had everyone over for dinner that night. They are all from border towns, too, so it was fun to compare stories. Cathy and I also had dinner together later in the week at Corralito’s.
Work was fine this week – no big whoop. We had a couple of brown bag lunches, and lots of applicants, as usual.
