Margaret's Retirement Dinner

Journal Entry: Wed Jul 2, 2008, 9:28 PM
"Lincava.us" [link]

Well, the affair went off without much of a hitch. One of the menu choices was not as described, and choice of what type of potato was not asked, everyone just got garlic mashed potatoes. No one seemed to care. (the rest of my life should be so uncomplicated) Since I planned it, I'm happy it all went well. The bosses paid for everything top-shelf, including the meal choices. It made my job easy. The flowers came on time, as did the cake, and a good time was had by all. The bosses - the true hosts, presented her with a gold wristwatch - also a well known name. The entire watch and band were done in 14K. It was a fitting and glowing tribute to Margaret's work and personal impact on the company over her 15 years of service. I was so happy when it was over. Having been sick, the meal was lost on me, though I did eat a bit. I enjoyed being there with Gina.
During the course of the occasion, my boss asked her to return in September. It felt like a gift, and she lit up. She was hoping that Dart would have her back when the boys return to school, full time. Here, it's summer holiday until the first week in September.

Tomorrow, I've work to do, but the boss told us tonight, half a day tomorrow, as Friday is Independence Day. It's a gift, and these bosses are generous in that way.

Music of the heart
in the dead of night.
and so the dance does start
and ends with morning's light.

Richard,

I like it. I like the faces, the way you left Wart open and yet to be 'finished'. It's the way we see him at that age.

Thanx for the fav on Merlin & Wart, one of my favorite old illustrations from too many moons ago. I can't even see well enough to draw like that anymore.

Best to you, as well. I've been watching, and like the feel of the same scenes done in a variety of ways.

Hi Lin. Thnx 4 fav! I've mostly been looking, looking, looking at this site since last contact..........but now I'm actually trying a few new techniques that I've picked up. I love the broad range of stuff on deviantart.

Thanks for your comment, Mary-Anne. I often forget that those who are "Watching" get my journal. I started the journal because there were family members watching and keeping somewhat in touch through it. I did not care for "My Space", and I was already involved here. It has become a portal for me to other friendships, yours included. Many folks helped to keep me balanced when Nick was going through the times in his illness where he was so close to losing his life. (Still hard for me to just say "death".)
It's also a way to say some things that I'd like to give voice to, but would otherwise go unsaid. Not so much like the soapbox, above, however.

Thank you, once again.
Best,
Lin

No worries, Kathleen.
You've got school, and work. And a life! When you get a chance.

Thanx for the note. It's been snowing in Seattle for the past 24 hrs! (only sticking above 500 ft. elevation), but that's okay as I have much to do indoors.

I'll get this Java thing figured out soon.
*Lincava:iconLincava: Apr 16, 2008, 11:58:41 PM
Okay, Kathleen -
I'll watch for it.

Click To Save Lives !

That was Zen, but this is Tao.

Right now I\\\'m having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I\\\'ve forgotten this before !

Yes, I'm okay, but I am deeply involved in another venture with two partners. One is pulling away from the venture, and the other wants the entire magillah. Leaves me an 'unequal' partner, if it goes down that way, and I've invested a lot of time and effort in it. I'm attached to it, and may have to leave it behind. Feels like a broken heart, even though it's not a love story.
