I know I haven't posted anything for a while but work has been busy busy busy. I didn't want you to forget about me so thought I would post something.
Well as I said it's been super busy at work. It's the start of the semester which always means we are busier than usual but this semester it started earlier and just kept on. UGGGGG - some of the calls I have gotten.
I'm sorry but there are only so many ways I can say 'you must choose a payment option plan within one hour of enrolling in a class or you will be dropped for non-payment'. Yes, I hear you tell me that you keep enrolling and for some reason you keep being dropped from your class. I know for a fact that you have to mark that you have read that if you do not choose a payment plan within the hour you will be dropped from your class. You have to mark that page as I AGREE before you can continue on with the enrollment process. If you have enrolled in the same class five times and have been dropped five times you have a problem. Calling me isn't going to change anything. You still have to choose a payment plan to stay enrolled. Telling me you have just enrolled for the class for the sixth time isn't going to keep you in the class. Again, you must choose a payment plan. Telling me you have no money to pay for anything isn't going to help you either. I'm not going to pay for your class.
Likewise, telling me you only today filled out your FASFA for financial aid isn't going to help you. I'm not saying you are not going to get financial aid, I'm just telling you that at this time we do not recognize that you have any financial aid so you must choose a plan and make a payment to stay enrolled in the class.
Can you tell it's been a rough month? Well, Gary started back to work as well having had June and July off. His work week this past week has not been the best. So we decided to take a little road trip today. We do this sometimes now that he has weekends off. We will soon be married 22 years and this past year is the first time we have been able to have weekends off without re-arranging work schedules. We are sure enjoying it.
No major plan for our trip. We decided to check out Perry, OK. A small town a little over an hour away. We enjoyed the scenery on the way over and on the way back. Also scored a win when we stopped at a little consignment antique store in Perry.
I have some carnival glass. One of my pieces is a butter dish. Now the lid to the butter dish got broken and thrown away. Could have been broken from to many moves or could have been broken by a child who is known to break many things. (Said child has broken the lid to my carnival glass candy dish and taped it together on the inside with Scotch tape thinking I would never know.) The particular shop we stopped at today happened to have the exact same carnival glass butter dish with an intact lid but broken bottom piece. Score for me even more when the item was half price.
Now on our road trips we usually take little two lane roads. It's always amazing to see some of the most beautiful hug homes in the middle of nowhere. Our trip today showed us a few things that make you wonder.
1) We were driving through a small small town - if you are from my hometown think New Hampton or Mount Moriah - that a sign posted stating; Sewage system monitored by surveillance cameras. You have to wonder just what goes on around their sewage system.
2) Another small town that likes for their public offices to really help out the town people all they can. Their tag agency also offered ear piercing. How convenient.
3) Now I have driven many many miles over many many different roads. There are areas in the country where it is not uncommon to see a sign saying WATCH FOR FALLING ROCKS. This is typically to inform you that there may be rocks falling down the side and could roll in front of your car or perhaps even hit your car. The sign we saw today said WATCH FOR FALLEN ROCKS. I guess the rocks in this area make sure there are no cars around before they roll down the hillside. Very convenient.
