Whew!

Tonight my chiropractor called to ask me if I had wine yeast. He was going to try to make some concord. He leant me some 6 and 7 gal carboys some years back. I give him wine periodically. I wrote down some basic instructions and gave him some chemicals. I hope it's at least drinkable! He used to make wine and beer and got the equipment from his Grandpa. These are definitely OLD carboys... some are blue... all have "bubbles" that look cool.

Racked my 11 gallons of Malvasia Bianca, Johanesberg Reisling, Brianna and 5 3/4 gallons of Elderberry. Tomorrow I'll rack the other 6 gallons of Elderberry. THe better bottles are bigger than my 5 gallon glass carboys so I was able to fill the 5 a 1/2 and a 750ml bottle. Given that fact, I should be ok with a 5 and a gallon jug tomorrow.
 
Just sitting here listening to the rain, again!!!!!! The forecast calls for rain as far as and including Thursday!!!!!! :rn :po:m
 
Just brushing the dust off the old resume. Got an opportunity to move up the corporate ladder at work, yipee!
 
I'm applying for a new job as well. Phone interview on Monday. I have an excellent shot at this. It's a longer drive, but less stress. It should be a little more money which will cover the gas costs. Had to get the resume updated a few days ago.

You don't come across a job which offers less stress and more money too often. My current job is about twenty minutes out of town but it's worth it for a good career. I'm getting my foot in the door, anyway. Good luck with your situation!

Thanks Julie, you have to reach out for them when they do come around. My supervisor told me about it and said he thinks that I would have a good shot so I have my fingers crossed!
 
Good luck on the jobs.
I'll be married in a few more days. October 8 coming up fast.
 
Congratulations on the marriage! I'd send you a bottle of wine but I'm guessing you will have that covered. :p

Congrats! May you have a wonderful life together!

My new job opportunity would be 45 min away... and then travel from there! My 5.5 yr old car is in for an oil change today... 94,000 mi... and I've only travelled for this current job for 16 months. We can't buy used cars, we'd be buying one every other year!
