Twisp of Fate

I’m having one of those “I can’t believe it’s Friday already” days.  It’s been a big week.  I started a part-time job in Winthrop at the Pacific Biodiversity Institute – I will be the new bookkeeper, and also see to some computer maintenance tasks around the office.  The bookkeeping position will entail some training with an accounting firm in Wenatchee, but we are still figuring that out.  I am pretty used to Quickbooks, but there are plenty of things to learn both about that software, and bookkeeping for nonprofits in particular.

Then on Wednesday my Dad came over in his little Winnebago “Rialta” RV, which is a 15-year-old low miles rig that he bought from someone in West Seattle.  He is going home via Wenatchee and Stevens Pass (Daroga State Park and Lake Wenatchee State Park) on a shake-down cruise.

Also my brother and sister-in-law came over from their home on Camano Island, and so we all had 2 nights and a full day yesterday together.  The weather actually cooperated, and we had a nice sunny day.  Here we are up the West Chewuch at Falls Creek:

Dad brought his cat, Squeaky, along in the RV and she seemed a little cowed by the whole experience, but yesterday afternoon I did get her to sit on my lap and be petted for a while (in the RV).  So we all hope she will get used to the idea eventually.

I did get 3 rugs woven last weekend, and am planning to be at the Winthrop Artisans Market this coming Sunday.
