new day at the office take three

yesterday in the office was a bit unusual in that we celebrated the man to my right becoming a citizen of the United States. He was the second member of my staff to do so in the past two months the man to my left became an American citizen also. The one to my right was originally a citizen of the country whose capital city is Conakry (done anyone besides Andrew know what county that is) how about some guesses) the other guy;s home capital was Beijing. One had been in the US 18 years the other 9, so these guys are not recent arrivals and both are registered professional engineers and one a phd. in engineering. They permit landfills and other solid waste facilities-

other than that it is kinda quiet around here, waiting for March to end and April to get here. That will be a busy month as Patt will head to visit grandchildren then and leave me here - nope no jealousy here, just me back here by myself while Patt is going to visit all three grandchildren and me staying here in Raleigh, so Patt will be holding Isaac, talking to Julianna and Lydia and I will be here - no problem. That will happen in April. Yes in April, Patt will be going off to visit the grandchildren, and not me, nooo, not me, but am I taking this news well, -- of course being the mature person that I am, no problems at all, Patt is going to visit Laura, Matt, Juliann, Lydia, Isaac and see their friends too is my guess, while I will be here - where here. while Patt is visiting and holding grandchildren, playing with them, listening to them, and holding them some more. and where will I be - here -- Yep in April I will keep you all posted, you can probably bet on that.



















be very careful hitting the enter key!! otherwise you have published a post,
and I just did it twice trying to get the title done for this one.

  1. Paul,
    You are such a good - letting Patt go off to hold those babies while you hold down the fort at home! They are super sweet babies! I think Julianna looks like you! Take care, Lynnette

  2. Poor Uncle Paul! How will you ever survive? When does Aunt Pat leave? You can always come up with my dad this friday if she has already left. They might not be your grandkids but come a close 4th and 5th after your 3! Love Julie
