Just a quick hello to all
January 19, 2008 by Sue in Wielesek
Just a quick hello to all. I spent Thursday and Friday taking things to the dump, Goodwill, South Eugene (purple and white ribbons, which you know will turn up as decorations at some Prom), and the computer recycling place, etc. with the help of a CentroLatino worker guy. The office is almost completely cleaned out, and I feel a certain calmness; it hasn't been nearly as bad as I expected. My closet at home is full of pictures which need to be hung up and miscellaneous things which need to be repaired, as well as all the Memory Box stuff to be organized and photos to be labeled, but that's not too bad either. I also took everything from the Museum of Ancient Word Processing Equipment to the computer recycling place except the Smith Corona Electric Typewriter,
Dick's manual typewriter, which needs repaired, and the CPT,
which is complete, and which, the last time I tried it, worked (and for which I have the manual, the big floppy disks, etc.). When you sell it for $20,000 on e-Bay, then you'll be sorry you laughed at me! Amazing to think that it cost $15,000 in 1979 dollars and does much less than my $700 laptop.

Ha, easy for you to say

Ha, easy for you to say...! But thanks for the reassurance. Now, if you'll only tell me it's again fashionable to have the components of one's attire match, I'll have a goal in life.

SHE'S GOING TO TAKE MY FILES!!! The woman I'm...

SHE'S GOING TO TAKE MY FILES!!! The woman I'm selling my practice to made a correct assessment that I would never quit if I still had files here at the office, and yesterday told me, very gently, that she thought she should take them to her office. I spent a sleepless night. They are my FRIENDS!! How can I retire and leave my friends?? I'll be reduced to shopping for matching clothing....
