Feeling Lucky

Feeling Lucky
I’m feeling lucky today.

Yesterday, I got an email from the building management. One of the drainpipes was cracked and it was believed to be from my unit. The plumbers wanted to knock out part of my wall in my bathroom to replace the pipe.

Not good for me.

I spoke to the manager this morning to make arrangements about the cracked pipe. She said there was a chance the pipe was to the unit next to mine. I suggested that I go run some water through the pipes so we could determine for certain which unit needs to repaired.

The leak wasn’t coming from my bathroom so I don’t have to have any repairs made or walls knocked out.

Perfect.

May by the numbers
May was a good month for top down driving time. I had 18.5 hours of no blind spots driving in the month. My total for the year is now 61.75 hours. May was a cool and overcast month.

My blog still is attracting visitors in spite of my limited writing and posting. The blog attracted 170 visitors for the month. The blog to date total was 59,476. I suppose that I could have more visitors if I stared my Woman of the Moment feature again.

The January 1, 2007 has seen its popularity fall of dramatically. Traditionally, this page has averaged eighty percent or more of the traffic. It is now down to only thirty percent.

The current blog page is at twenty two percent of the traffic.

Teaching
It looks like I will only have two classes to teach this quarter.

I think I could have had classes but I turned down teaching three sections of one class. The class is abysmal and devoid of any fun. I hated to teach the course on both of the last two times that I taught it.

Both of my classes are essentially new classes as the textbooks have changed and the course curriculums are completely different. On the plus side, one class is scheduled to have five students and three are repeat students for me. The other class has fifteen students, all new to me.

All in all , a good quarter schedule for the Summer.


Be well and stay happy.
