Last day,
before I leave.
I went out to install the new serpentine belt for my vehicle but there was another belt that needs to be removed first. No way! I have no idea what it does or if I can reset it properly so I'm taking parts to parent's and Dad and my older brother can help me.
Ms. F and I went and got the parking tags from Parking Authority, so now I can park for free on her block. Yay. I have a pass for my car for all of section C so if someone comes to visit for more than two hours I'll park on the street and they can have my stall. Yay!
Went to the college and got my loan papers back. I'm all set. The only down side is, I may not get any hours in the S.T.A.R.T. labs, they've had their funds cut AGAIN!!! I may not get any work from them at all unless one of the students has a conflict between work hours and class times. I'll have to hope that the work from home thing gets off to a good start or I'm screwed! Yikes!!
I've got the first batch of honey buns in the bread maker, I have a load of laundry to do but there was someone else's clothes in the washer, and since it had just started I decided to put off laundry for a while.
I need to do laundry before I can pack for the trip. I need some (ok, a lot) of the clothes that are, at this time, residing in the dirty clothes basket. Christmas presents are wrapped, I have a list so I don't forget anything (except the things I forgot to put on the list), and the vehicle is gassed up and ready to go. I had a bit of a scare this morning when I went to start the car to go to the college. I hadn't tightened the battery cables enough so the engine wouldn't start. Argh! B-F came out with my tool kit and tightened them for me. The tool kit is still in the vehicle, it goes with me, and all should be well. I got a call from my brother (the one who lives at my parent's ranch), he says the roads are pretty icy so I'll have to go slow. I guess that means that I won't be arriving tomorrow night. I'll have to spend the night somewhere along the way. I've done that before, no big deal.
Happy Holidays to all!!!
