Activated Jordan's i870 and Dani's i850


Jordan's i870 arrived yesterday and was assigned a phone number today. I called in to have her put on the rural and fleet ID that Dani and I have.

Shortly there after, Dani's new phone, the i850 showed up and I had that activated on her number. I showed them how to use them and went to work. Worked from 1pm to 9pm. Fairly good night, 2 activations, but I feel the likelihood of return on these units is high. Customer had to many questions and wanted to many service guarantees. Came back from work, Dani was bringing in the laundry about 10pm. The tanker committee was meeting at the Fire Dept, so I went over there to see what they decided. Looks like we are going to get an Elite Power tanker. This will be a GREAT improvement over the old tanker we have been using.

Sorry, Got Busy, No Entry

Well, I've been slacking on my journal. I have been working full time at Standard Process, and part time at Sprint. My mom has been in the hospital with heart problems and she currently has an infection at the site where she had an IV. It doesn't look like she will be out of the hospital any time soon. Jeff is back playing EQ, which is cool. So I created a new character on his server named Putty. I like the new feature that that link refers to, it's a new service offered by Sony to display your characters online without having to update your character manually. Works sweet, I wish City of Heroes would do this too.

Just got home from work.It was a pretty routine night, ran the Alfa Laval and the Vincent most of the night. Gus a co-worker was pretty grumpy, and when I asked him about it, he told me to leave him alone. Came out of work to find my car buried under 4 inches of snow. Apparently the Weather Service has issued the following warning:

Busy Day

Had a pretty busy Tuesday. In linux class we had a test on chapter 14 and then we went thru chapter 15 pretty thoroughly. Lecture lasted the whole morning and we didn't get a chance to do any lab work.

Got home at about 1:00PM and slept till 6:00PM, got up and went down to the Fire Dept to get my flu shot and recertify on CPR.

Went and visited with Dani at the Citgo and then went home and laid down again from 10:00PM to 10:30 and went to work at Standard Process.
