MIdvale checking in

Hello family, all is well in Midvale. We have survived the resurfacing of our apartment complex parking lots. We evacuated to West Jordan for two days, to avoid the hassle of finding open "visitors" spaces while our section was being done. We returned home only to find a notice that our section had been rescheduled due to weather conditions. Fortunately we were able to find visitors spaces during the rescheduled time, even if it was a bit more of a walk. We also received a nice flyer today with a phone number of the security people that patrol the complex, so we can call in a noise complaint the next time the folks in the neighboring building have a drunken party at 4:00 am.

Marilyn's temp agency assignment at LDS hospital is coming to an end, as the new Intermountain Medical Center in Murray is opening this week and all the staff are being reshuffled. Cottonwood Hospital is closing and transferring all its patients to the new hospital. There was no promise of the assignment going past the end of October, though we won't be surprised if we get a call saying they want her to come back. We'll see how things go with different assignments from the agency.

We're keeping busy with some reorganizing of our apartment and stored things, and Marilyn has been back at the sewing machine after a needed break. (That wedding dress took a while to make.) She did a Halloween costume for a coworker's child on commission, and the little Pokemon outfit is done now. The sewing machine at home decided to stop cooperating midway through the project, so we had to go the North house to finish it off. The little cap and shirt turned out to be cute.
