YAY! Tori is home for the weekend!!! I survived the April Fool jokes undamaged. In fact, they called me at work and said that my new computer was ready, but I thought it was a joke!
Checked out the Goleta Pier at lunch today and it was just gorgeous- not even windy! I will have to return soon. There were birdwatchers all about and the slough was full of interesting avian critters. Also, there were about six artists making paintings or drawings of the slough. That was also very interesting.
This was my manager's last day as a manager, as he is going into semi-retirement and I get a new on starting next week. Things could be very interesting....
Meanwhile I'm looking forward to the holiday weekend and then taking Tori back to school on Sunday....
