back at home...

i got back last nite about 10:45 from the meeting. it was good. i learned a lot more about what the people in my new group do and got to meet everyone.

i do not recommend the Ramada in Oceanside, but you can decide for yourself. i got their about 2:30 and checked-in early. i figured this should be ok since the motel was empty at that time. i got to my room and the door was opened. apparently i got the room that was still being vacuumed/carpet cleaned. the guy was a surprised to see me as i was him. he was very apologetic about not having the room done. it wasn't his fault. so i let him finish the rug cleaning and went to wash my hands. then i discovered that he was also in the process of uncloggin the sink. i was reassured it would be fine in a couple minutes. so i waited and he snaked it with a wire hanger. it was fine the rest of my stay so i was happy about that. the room itself wasn't that bad. i'd say it was as bad as our room at the Royal Hawaiian were we stayed in february. at least the place in oceanside didn't have ants. those of you that saw the pictures of our room know what i mean. the "problem" with the hotel was the area. i hadn't checked it out before i made the reservation so i do take some responsibility. it was pretty sketchy for a woman staying alone. i made sure and got dinner when it was still daylight out so i wouldn't have to leave again until the morning. paranoid??no, safe. the 1/4 inch gap between the door and the frame didn't seem to secure either. fortunately i was on the 3rd floor and not on the ground level.

so back to work tomorrow to finish up the week.
weezie went and got her teeth cleaned today. no cavities, but she gets to go back in 3 months for a check-up.
