Nina and I go to the Idaho Falls LDS Temple every Friday morning to work as Ordinance Workers. Last night our Shift Coordinator called and asked if I could be there a half-hour earlier than usual. That meant getting up at 3:30 a.m. instead of 4:00 a.m. That further meant a very poor night’s sleep! I did get in a short nap, but way too short!

On the Census front, my supervisor feels that our work on the Reservation is done. If it goes any further, someone else will do the work. That’s a bummer for sure! Meanwhile, starting on Monday we’re meeting in a conference room out at the Airport that I arranged for (I’m on the Airport Commission, so have a bit of an “in” out there) wrapping up what’s been done and getting everything ready to turn back in. There’s another area we can work, but there’s not a whole bunch of work available there, he told me. But, so far they’ve paid me close to a thousand dollars (gross, before taxes and such), and that’s all goodness.

This afternoon the snow tires came off the Avalon and new tires went on. I called all the tire places around town and got quotes ranging from $890 down to $425. Most were in the $500 range. All were for comparable tires. Of course, the $425 tires were the most appealing. The snow tires are now stored in the garage waiting for next winter. Nina says the car is much quieter.

But, with all that, I didn’t take a single picture today. Consequently, for the second time since January 21st, I’ve no daily photo. Dang!

TTFN!
