Running the 99 to Dublin

This evening I took Heather and her big boy cat back to the Dublin station to catch the BART train back home. Everything went off without a hitch. She was home before I reached Tracy. This means that she made great BART and muni connections. I had no traffic on the way home and everything went as planed.

She was a great help in getting us organized in our new old house. Monday should see the the stove installed and something done with the cabinets.. Saturday Tony was back to work on giving us a back splash with our porcelein tiles. They are looking good. We had the phone line hooked up to the wrong set so he corrected those lines too. Heather got to use the new tub 3 times. She learned that you have to make sure that the water level is up to a certain spot before you turn on the blowers. She also made 12 trips to the house with stuff that was in the Expedition. It was really getting out of hand.

I through out all of the old food in the big freezer. It spoiled after the air con people left the freezer without power for a week as they were putting in the new box and the new registers. The new heater works wonderfully. The house is much better insulated than the apartment.

I met with the CTA president to go over the written message that will be used to inform our members of the contract changes.

We bought Heather a new IPhone this weekend. She was frustrated because it had to be set up with her computer.. and she was in Merced. Her poor Treo had seen better days. She had scotch taped her antenna and did not have access to her "A" key or a space bar. I hope this will be a great addition for her.

We are having a great chance to "go through" our collections before they get replanted back into our living space. Right now the dust factor is a major issue in this house. We all have developed a healthy hack from working in this space. Its got to get better.

MacWorld is happening this week in SF. My entourage is planning on Thursday. Give me an email if you can join us..

Love Pat
