Nina and I go to the Idaho Falls LDS Temple every Friday morning to work as Ordinance Workers. Last night our Shift Coordinator called and asked if I could be there a half-hour earlier than usual. That meant getting up at 3:30 a.m. instead of 4:00 a.m. That further meant a very poor night’s sleep! I did get in a short nap, but way too short!<\/p>\n
On the Census front, my supervisor feels that our work on the Reservation is done. If it goes any further, someone else will do the work. That’s a bummer for sure! Meanwhile, starting on Monday we’re meeting in a conference room out at the Airport that I arranged for (I’m on the Airport Commission, so have a bit of an “in” out there) wrapping up what’s been done and getting everything ready to turn back in. There’s another area we can work, but there’s not a whole bunch of work available there, he told me. But, so far they’ve paid me close to a thousand dollars (gross, before taxes and such), and that’s all goodness.<\/p>\n
This afternoon the snow tires came off the Avalon and new tires went on. I called all the tire places around town and got quotes ranging from $890 down to $425. Most were in the $500 range. All were for comparable tires. Of course, the $425 tires were the most appealing. The snow tires are now stored in the garage waiting for next winter. Nina says the car is much quieter.<\/p>\n
But, with all that, I didn’t take a single picture today. Consequently, for the second time since January 21st, I’ve no daily photo. Dang!<\/p>\n
