Blue Skies!!!

We can finally see the sky again. There are still clouds, but this morning we have some blue sky and sun for awhile. We are expected to get more rain today, but I don't how heavy a rain we are supposed to get. But for now, we are enjoying seeing the blue sky again. I don't mind the clouds, because it is considerably cooler with the clouds. The clouds this morning are just big, white, fluffy clouds. Much better than gray clouds that keep circling around the city.

Another Treat!

Mike received a nice surprise in the mail yesterday. Of course, I get to share it with him. A regular customer of the company he works for always asks for Mike to do their service calls. Well, they had something larger than usual and asked Mike to come out and take a look at it and do some consulting on it. The man even gave Mike the CAD program(I believe that is the name of it) for the blueprints. So Mike got to do some different work on the side (by request of Mike's boss). Well, after helping with the drawings and then the company submitting them to the county, they were finally approved. The man asked for a quote on the job from Mike and Mike explained to them that it was just too large a job for their company to feasibly handle. The company he works for isn't set up to handle large jobs. He kept after Mike to do the job, but it just can't happen. So Mike recommended a company that is owned by someone he used to work with. They employ several guys Mike used to work with also, so Mike felt that his customer would be in good hands. This company bid on the job and got it. As a token of appreciation, the man sent Mike a $100 gift certificate to the Outback Steakhouse.
