We're coming

Darn internet. The guy came and worked on it a couple of weeks ago and said he would have to come back tomorrow to finish it. I'm still waiting for tomorrow. I don't know when I will be home again for him to come. Sometimes I have internet and sometimes I don't. Frustrating.

I just want to warn you that if you have not yet returned your census, about a million or so of my closest friends will be infiltrating the country looking for you. We are hitting the streets of Carlin tomorrow in mass.

The highlight of class yesterday was when our field office supervisor visited our class. For those of you from Elko she is Carol Simmons Castle. I re-met her when I did my testing for the census. She lived in our ward for a bit many, many yrs ago and I didn't know her well then. She is a gabber and we were best friends by the time my test was done. Anyway, she knew most everyone in the group and said hi, then she saw me. She said, "Marilyn, I met your son in the Reno office." Then she proceded to tell the WHOLE story. Lance had had a job interview that day so he was dressed up when he went to work. She told him that he looked like a Mormon missionary. He told her that he had been one a few yrs ago. She asked him where he went on his mission and of course she had a kid living in Houston so they had to talk about that for a while. Then she asked him if he grew up in Reno. He said "No, in Elko". Well that got her going. She had to ask how old he was and if he knew her daughters. She told him that she taught him in Primary. And then she asked about Marilyn Simmons. Lance reluctlantly admited that I was his mom. So then they talked about that. And she gave all these details to our class today.

My blond friend, Ashley, from my last group is in this group. We will be doing some work together. I will have to give her a lesson of what my car looks like.
