Looking forward

I had a phone chat with my boss yesterday afternoon. It sounds like the plan is to let the assistant work whatever he can work through the summer (and we still don't know what his plan is for that. He's supposed to let her know next Monday) and start looking for a replacement person that can work like 24 hours per week and be consistent with working this amount of hours every week. Even if we have some overlap between the 2 positions for a bit, that would be ok. His lack of work the past 2 months has now gotten me behind 2 months from where I want to be. Then at the end of summer she will let the assistant go. 

I've been happy and relieved I haven't had any slow internet issues for a couple weeks now. Hoping it stays that way.  

My uncle finally got his inherited IRA money. Well, so he said in a text yesterday. Then he called me and said to get it set up he needed mom's info, date of birth, SS#, address, date of death. So, I just emailed him a copy of her death certificate and my address. I'm assuming this info is so he can get it set up as in inherited IRA with his bank for the tax purposes. It never seems to be over, LOL.

Our state primary election is over. Thankfully that lying, smarmy guy in our district trying to get in, was in last place out of 3 running. Not to mention he's a total bigot, which he was really starting to show his colors on that the last few days. I think my dh had a pretty strong hand in his loss, mostly behind the scenes, but also as a vocal (mostly written) voice. Even our Mr. Neighbor, who's part time job has him out and about seeing people all the time, said he was telling everyone he came across not to vote for this guy. 

It looks like DAN will be burning his huge brush pile today, or soon. He had a water truck delivered later yesterday afternoon and it's parked there. He has no well/water, so hence the need for the water truck. That pile is too huge to try to burn without a water source available. Plus, we've been having lots of strong wind gusts the past several days.  

Mr Amos showed up at the back patio door last evening .....with a dang chipmunk in his mouth! He has never even come close to getting a chipmunk before. It was dead and dh is wondering if Amos found it that way, as it was missing part of it's tail. Anything I've seen Amos catch, that's alive, he will, of course play with it for quite awhile and he wasn't out long enough to even have some play time with his "catch". It was another reminder of why we opted out of having a pet door on the house, LOL.
