Cool and Rainy
That is the weather we have for our FairWeekend. Town wide yard sales, Beer Gardens, Saturn Shows (rides) and Free pony rides and a small animal pen. Not to forget the FrenchFry Truck and the mini donuts and the cotton candy. The art club even had a show and sale at the rifle range. We went in for the parade. A couple of floats and fire engines and old cars . The had the antique fire engine in front of the brand new one and a realllllly old tractor in front of a giant monster on treads and everything. What a contrast. They are also upgrading the hydro at our office this weekend. In theory the breakers won't blow anymore. The CEO for Teranet was out from Toronto for a couple of days this week. He was in our office for lunch from 11:30 to 1:00. We were told to set up for a power point so we moved everything around so we could eat and watch at the same time, but there was no power point so we could have stayed where we were. So now we have met all the new big managers and maybe can get back to work. They track how far behind we are on the target production levels and visits from other department heads doesn't factor in to the time table. Neither does work taken by other offices and not completed. Winnipeg doing some of our work has us 6 days behind on the charts. And I thought I wasn't working in a factory. At least maybe next week Patty will be back from vacation and I can get back to my own work and get caught up. I have got a whole pile of Tax Sales to get prepared. They would be much easier if Winnipeg didn't insist that all the information be perfectly lined up with the line above and postal codes lined up with the right side. (slightly anal?) Jim is going to get our truck mirror fixed today (Yes, I broke it again) If the rain holds off I will plant the tomatoes that we have been given. We have one more box of potatoes to plant. We'll do that about next weekend to give some new potatoes for a longer stretch. The rest of the garden is "nibbling' One row of peas, one of beans, carrots and beets. I want to freese a few beets cause I really like them with Auntie Lorraine`s sauce on them. Lots of onion, though, cause we use them all year. And I know we will have too many cucumbers but we can always drop extra at the Legion.
