Replying to: steve_ (May 09, 2008 11:23 am)  I would have done it myself but I'm just too busy at work nowadays. Plus I'll have a receipt for the timing belt, every buyer wants that.

Replying to: ateixeira (May 09, 2008 11:40 am) Too bad none of that stuff adds to the value of the vehicle (although it may help it sell faster). For some reason, a few of the guys razzed me in the Subaru Crew chat last night for going 124,000 miles on the original spark plugs. Can't imagine why.

Replying to: steve_ (May 09, 2008 3:53 pm) On a related note, my mom's RAV4 was up on the lease, so she looked around and ended up in an '09 Forester X in dark grey metallic. She never really cared for the Forester I had (thought it was small), but likes the new one very much. -Brian |

Replying to: ateixeira (May 09, 2008 6:46 am) Is the 2% under a recent change? My last 2 VIP purchases (2/96 & 8/02) have been at invoice. My brother did a VIP purchase 8/04 and I'm pretty sure it was also at invoice. BTW, these were all through IMBA. P.S. Congrats on the new Forester!

on the job front ... it just gets worse and worse ... I have had 13 conferences over the last 2 weeks (each one lasts at least an hour with a ton of paperwork apiece) .. and we have 5 more scheduled for next week and at least one the week after that ... all the paperwork will have to be completed in the next 2 weeks ... I am still trying to finish up testing that all the students in grades 1-5 complete .. we're still testing for new identifications for special education services .. and I'll still have final progress reports to complete by the end of the school year on all 32 students on the caseload ... on the interview front ... so far it appears the jobs open have been given to others - HOWEVER it's early in the transfer process and lots have more experience than I do .. these were all internal postings so there should be MORE postings from the transfers already done .. we've also had a retirement buy-out that over 20 teachers have taken advantage of, and those jobs have not yet begun to be posted ... so I'm still hopeful for a change before the next school year ... on the "professional education" front ... I spend the first weekend in April at an advanced language class on Saturday and Sunday in Springfield IL and then went to Columbus OH the last weekend of April for another one... this is supposed to run a fall and spring class each over a 2 year period .. but I missed the one last spring so was making it up .. I'm through with the classes but still have outstanding book reports and video lesson observations to submit ... it will get done when school is out .. at least it's a bit flexible in getting the work submitted ! I already have the required 600 hours of tutoring practicum that go along with the requirements .. on the personal front .. I'm a year older .. ... family was very nice to me ... one daughter put together a collage frame of all the children/grandchildren for me to have on my desk .. one daughter sent flowers .. daughter and son-in-law took me to one of my favorite restaurants for dinner .. and we have a show to go see tonight that I'm excited about seeing ... on the "family" front .. husband's mother continues to improve by leaps and bounds and has once again taken over the reins of the family's seasonal business - running a popcorn stand at an amusement park ... the place was bought out by a camp resort company, and his father "lost" his job working in the office .. he's 81 and drawing unemployment for the first time in his life .. LOL .. my mother is still improving but still in the nursing home with rehabilitation .. not sure what will happen in long run .. I suspect that they'll want to move her home with support within a fairly short while, and my dad will require a lot of help to take care of her at home .. she will not walk in the immediate future .. her leg muscles are too weak and when she stands it hyperextends her knees .. they are still working to strengthen her, but it will be a very long process ... on the "home" front .. we have had someone come to begin design plans and estimates for some home renovations .. there are things that need to be 'fixed' and we're weighing whether to fix or change ... front entry needs to be enlarged .. master bath/closet needs to be reworked ... and kitchen needs a better design ... we'll see what they come back with for these 3 projects ... so April was a bit busy and I seem to just be trying to stumble on through May ... might be awhile before I make much of a post again ... I do read the posts .. and enjoyed reading about Juice's pending arrival ... got the boards stirred up a bit didn't it? see you !
