susandennisNice walk this morning. This is my kind of weather - low 40s, cloudy and just a little misty and no wind. I was thinking this morning that I need to really enjoy these walks because the weather is not going to stay this good and when I get a new job, I won't be getting as many walks. (But, on the up side, until I do get a new gig, I can walk every day!)
I popped in my last Sex and the City DVD - disc 2 of Season 5 and watched the first episode last night. I got all the way through to the punch line - the last 5 minutes of the episode and the friggin' DVD was scratched! I wiped it and washed it and tried but no go. GRRRR I wonder if all DVD players are like mine - very tricky to do an efficient fast forward or fast rewind or even much of any forward or rewind. I wonder if they make a DVD player that reacts more like TiVO in these functions or even a VCR player. I wonder. Anyway, back to Netflix with this one for a new copy. It's going to be a while before Season 6 comes out and Season 5 was short enough!
Tomorrow is my last Monday for a while. I need to start making lists. The first one starts off:
- Apply for unemployment (I tried applying yesterday, but, alas, they don't want to talk future, you have to wait until you are actually unemployed - makes sense.)
- Fix up a new version of the resume and a few portfolio sample web pages for the contracting agency recruiter who requested it (May actually do this at work this week)
- Do taxes (I'm thinking H&R Block on line this year. I have not been real happy with Turbo Tax the last few years and I can do the whole thing plus file electronically for $12 through my credit union)
- Make more jigsaw puzzles! I have lots of good pictures to use.
- Make a house clean up plan

I do have a DVD player, just need to hook it up.

Nifty little tv software program we use thru Yahoo Messenger.
And another thing to like about WA..no state income tax!
