Good Morning to all you guys. Well, we survived the great stroms. The tornados bounced around us all over yesterday. April, Zac, Caden, Toby and I had gone to eat dinner in NRH and Jared called and told us that there was a tornado on 820 and 30 coming our way, and then Blair called to tell us and while we were talking one came close to Blair and Jay and I heard Jay tell Blair "its here" and the phones went dead. While we were in the restaurant there was baseball sized hail and we couldnt leave until that went past. As we drove home we met firetrucks everywhere. Fortunately our house and cars were not damaged here, but just two miles West where Cadens day care is that park was hit pretty hard. It is hard to tell whether a tornado did the damage or high wind. Then the storm traveled right down 30 and Mike was having a late night service and had to get about 250 people in a hall way at the funeral home. He had to run out in the hail to get the funeral coach out of the hail. He said he knew if the hail didnt kill him his boss would. I will be glad when the weather kind of smooths out for us all.
I was told Thursday that my job was affected by the Citi restructuring. My job will be going to India. I have supposedly a year to find another job or transfer somewhere else within the company. They have a pretty good severance package for us, but it sure will be hard to do. I guess all financing companies in the US are having some major difficulties right now, but why do they think India will save them money? It will be interesting to see how the Indians do appraisals for the US. OH well, such is life. My surgery is Thursday and I have stayed on the diet that the surgeon wanted me to, so I have lost several pounds. It is hard to just drink a protein shake every day. Hopefully since I have been good though he can just do a laproscopic sugery. If not, again OH Well, such is life and I will make it. Everyone appears to be doing well and hope to see all you guys soon. Eletia
