Signing Up for Overtime

We made a decision yesterday to sign up for an overtime day this Tuesday. It is just too much extra cash to pass up. It amounts to almost $300 for one day's work, and there are lots of things we can do with that extra money. We would be doing the extra day every week if we were younger and didn't need the extra day's rest. Last year we worked 5 eleven hour days, but that was a much shorter total length of time (7 weeks) than this year. If we tried to work that amount of time this year for 6 months, we would be totally burned out by Christmas. It isn't worth it.

The article that appeared in the local Naperville paper about Austin's game Friday night is attached. Thanks to Patty and Mark for that info. It is a great season for Austin and his team and this season is one huge thrill to follow. The real news is that his grades are excellent, and there should be nothing but good news for him in the future. He is the total package and, hopefully, some top colleges will be courting him. Actually, Penn State already has a jump on the others.

We will complete the information requested by Mountain Views RV Resort this morning and send it back. It would be nice to get a commitment from them so that we are able to better plan our time for next year. Josie hasn't heard back from the Phoenix Flower Shops yet, so that piece of the puzzle is still sitting out there for now.

So, instead of working today for our last day this week, we will also work tomorrow. UGH!!...
