its a changing life

Well life is all about change right? Sometimes I love change, other times I could do without it and be just fine..grrr...
So my job (income) has been changed. We no longer get mileage for what we do. It is effective August 1st, but we dont really get any details until August 13th. Hmmm..Figures. I hear we are to get a raise, but still have to do all the transport, insurance and maintenance on our vehicles ourselves. Even though a single day can be 3oo miles of driving or more. And because we work for the state, we have to carry a 1 MILLION dollar business insurance policy..not cheap let me tell ya. I know, people have to commute every day, sometimes even long ones, and they dont get thier insurance or maintenance paid for, so I guess if the raise is good enough, it might not be too bad. I dont know. And I have to work and wait for a couple more weeks to find out. THAT makes me mad.
In other news...I got to go seem my grandaughter last weekend. She is the stuff let me tell you! I cant believe how much I adore her. She is so beautiful..And her parents (1st timers) are so protective. Its funny. Reminds me of me when my 1st one came. Glad you get over all that with the second one! And you really get over it when you become a grandparent! As long as they dont get hurt, no problems! lol
Oh and while we were there we went to a sport bar/restaraunt that had this amazing bread. It was beer bread. Dense, slightly sweet, with big holes in it to catch the butter that melted down into it. A wonderful sweet thin but crisp crust with oatmeal baked into the top..Oh it was divine! I even asked for a couple of pieces to take home. It was awesome. Oh and the clam chowder was to die for! For the 1st time EVER I didnt put crackers in my clam chowder. At almost 47 years old that is saying something! It didnt need crackers and might even have sucked had I put them in there!Almost worth moving to wenatchee for! But...too dang hot!
Glad to be here and see ya all again soon! Smoochies~!
