Hot Weather When Will We Get a Break

Wow have we had warm weather here in the 80's the past week. Barb is sorry to have to report this to all you who have had snow and rain or cooler temps. We understand it is not normal to have temps this high this time of year. But heck we might as well enjoy them while it lasts because reports show it will be cooling off the end of next week.

Our week started off as usual and then on Wed we started our new job at the Spring Training Stadium for Chicago Cubs. We worked Wed, Thurs, and Sat this past week. It is really fun to watch all those fans having such a good time and spend their money likes it is water. Barb processed so many sale transactions she thought she was going to have shoulder problems from reaching up for the sales slips. We had four registers going almost the full 7 hours. Saturday it was a sale out crowd which the stadium holds 13,000 and it was full plus all us workers. Jerry on Saturday got to do security at the sky boxes and patio area where special parties go on. He got to watch some of the game. He is a supervisor so he just releives several security people who are at special post areas like the media area, box area, and ball players area where they go in and out.

Here we are in our uniforms they give us shirts and then we wear tan pants.

Sunday today we had a block party. This block covers actually approximately 50 homes. In the morning and early afternoon those who wanted to had a golfing tournament which Jerry and Barb golfed in. Then at 4pm there was sandwiches, salads and desert at the club house patio. Very fun time to meet neighbors you live next door to and don't even know their names.

Another week gone by.
