This morning we’re meeting with the Director of the Vail Mountain School. It’s a long shot to get in due to the tuition but they called and wanted to see us again so here we are. I did fill out the financial assistance package and Fed Ex’d it yesterday and it was more complicated  than buying a house, so we’ll see what happens. I think they have spots for both boys if we can get them to cover the $45,000 a year cost. If not, we’re perfectly happy with the Eagle Valley Middle School but it would be a 25 minute drive to and from school each day.
First up though is a walk and then we’ll drop Lori at the hospital where she’ll go up and see what’s going on at her new work home. Yesterday was a cluster, especially for Lori who is still dealing with that crazy lady who preceded her in the role of Practice Manager. This woman has lost twice now trying to get Dr. R to pay unemployment but is now appealing the findings of two previous arbitrators. I mean come on, she only worked there for 5 weeks! As Lori said, she’s spent more money already than she can possibly get. Now her second attorney has also quit on her. Lori and Dr R haven’t hired an attorney as that’s just throwing away good money so Lori has basically managed the entire process. Who knew, I mean we know she’s now kind of a doctor but I had no idea she’s also a lawyer!
It’s so nice and cool up here and must have dropped down to the 40’s last night. I just took Mojo out and it sure feels good but you could almost use a sweater. This morning the sun is peaking over the tree covered mountain across the valley out the balcony window. The line of color between the blue sky and green mountain is so sharp it seems you could cut yourself on it. I’m starting to sound like Lori but that’s what the scenery up here will do to you.
Guess I’ll run, bacon and sausage are in the oven and we hope to be in Denver by 1:30 or 2pm as we need to get both boys dress pants for the trip. Right now there old pants come up to their knees!
God Bless
