Good News And Off To Warmer Climes

A couple in Maryland were so happy with the job I did on the books that we sold for them at an estate sale this summer that they hired me this week as an independent contractor to organize and catalogue the contents of their permanent home library.  The wife, like me, is an insatiable omnivorous reader, and there are thousands of books to sort and record.  I'm to work one day a week for them, at a quite nice hourly rate.  I start in October, after I return from GA.  So, now I have not four, but five part-time jobs!

Mums and I plan to leave on a long-awaited vacation to points in Florida on Wednesday.  I'm working up in Bethesda today, and intend to drive to GA tomorrow.  We haven't made any reservations at hotels and whatnot, as we intend this beach trip to be random and relaxed--we'll drive to where it suits us, find a place to stay for the night, and then continue on, or not, as our whimsy takes us.  We both hope the weather will cooperate!  Will post pictures!
