Waiting

Here I sit...waiting...





Still waiting....


I am in charge of our ward's part of the "Emergency Preparedness Fair". I have had to contact the Sheriff's office, Police Dept, and Fire Dept. I started working on this Aug. 28. I just today talked to a fire chief, and that is only because I was "authoritative" on the phone...
Wow! A call back from the fire chief...I've only left about 10 messages with the Public Education and Affairs division...I am SO EXCITED!

Now, I am waiting again...


Waiting for another phone call...


Waiting to find out if the super cool traveling RV thingie they have can come to our LDS fair...


Wanting a shower but scared to miss the phone call (he said he'd call back as soon as he had a definite answer), so I sit...


Waiting.....

3 Words to brighten my day:

Jessica, I feel your pain. I know it wouldn't be easy, but you might get better results if you go in person with Jackson in toe. They would know you are serious and can't just brush you aside. (Maybe even have sympathy). Plus, if you don't get the answer you want, you could ask to speak to someone else. Feel free to throw that advice out the window. I have just been learning how to be persistent lately!

You could always take the phone in the bathroom while you shower. Of course, if it does ring while you're in there, you might try to tear out of the shower too fast and become tangled up in the shower curtain and end up a wet mess on the bath mat. Umm... not that I have had any experience like that before....;-)
