Thanks for all the well wishes and support. Found a room to rent for a week in Houston at a lodge with a restaurant and bar.
Ready to leave Valdez just in time for the next snowstorm.
Happy Holidays to all!
Well, I got fired from my new job in Houston today. So it doesn't look like I will be moving there. I was just getting ready to leave when I received an email informing me of my status. I needed to take care of some business here Monday before I left and missed work today. She said I hope it was important business because it cost you your job.
Now I still have stuff in Houston I have to move. And my stuff packed up here in Valdez. I think I will still have my friends bring my big stuff to Wasilla. Store it some place til I figure out where I'm going. I can stay with a friend in Anchorage and rent a storage unit there. It will be easier to get my stuff from Wasilla than Valdez.
I'm dissappointed about getting fired. After the shock wore off I am okay being jobless and almost homeless.
pretty cool
Took these pictures around 3pm today. Nice clear day in Houston hovering around 20 degrees.
Meanwhile, Valdez goes big with 24 " of new snow and goes over a 100" for the season with 116" as of late Wed night. Talked to a friend in Valdez tonight and she said it was still snowing.
Hope they get it all neatly piled up by Saturday...
Early Moon Rise
Its been hectic the last few days as they wanted me to start my new job right away. The weather for traveling back turned really crappy anyway. Valdez only got a foot and a half of snow last night.
I have weekends off so I'm driving back to Valdez Saturday for another load coming bach Sunday. Weather permiting. Good news is some friends are coming up to Wasilla for Christmas with an empty truck as they want to bring a load of good, dry spruce back. So they'll have room for my desk!
Houston was 23 degrees and lightly snowing. Quite pleasant.
My bags are packed and I'm ready to go by first daylight Monday. Watching the current Alaska Road Conditions at http://511.alaska.gov/ and it looks like its good to go to Houston. First trip anyway. Its so much fun to move in the winter.
Swimming, the only sport with no half times, no subs, no timeouts and you only get 1 shot at your goal.
And I thought there was only one flavor of KitKat. “A massive collection, mostly from Japan, of every single wacky KitKat flavor every created. Includes banana!
