Costly Win

The main event (for me) yesterday was the matchup on Thursday Night Football between the Cardinals and Seahawks. I root for both teams except when they play each other, and then it is all Seahawks. They won last night, 22-16, in a game that wasn't as close as the score. The Seahawks again provided a couple gift scores to their opponent via penalties. The bad news is that they lost their best defensive player, Richard Sherman, to an Achilles Tendon injury. He will be lost for the rest of the season and the Seahawks have a tough schedule the rest of the way. I don't see them going too far this season with all the serious injuries they have. They also lead the league in penalties, and they didn't hurt that distinction last night. Of course, I will still be cheering for them.

Josie will spend her final work day at the 7th St store location today. That is the toughest of the locations for her and she will be happy to see this day end. She has only next week to go at the 19th Ave store before starting her new job at Cactus Flower.

I made an appointment for next Thursday to have my annual Ultra Scan for the aneurism check. It should be fine as the device that was surgically installed seems to be doing its job.

We are getting new listings, daily, for rental properties. There have been a couple that we want to do a "drive-by" to check out. We have a way to go yet before getting serious about any rental.

It was announced yesterday that the GTA (Grand Teton Association) will eliminate the year-end completion bonus next season. They already have modified other compensation benefits (gift cards) which has us worried about the future impact of all these changes. We are not closing the door yet on a return to Jackson next year, but it is looking more and more like we may be taking at least one year off, based on our current activities...
