Hi all,
Last week was a busy one at work and at home. My project is coming
due, so I have been working very long hours. Jenn got back from her
road trip on Saturday, having seen Andrew in Long Island and friends
in the Binghamton area. On Sunday, she and Allison went to Darien
Lake, an amusement park, and then that evening the four of us went
out to dinner at a new restaurant located at the Port of Rochester,
where the fast ferry used to dock. It was very nice.
Mike has two more interviews left out of the eleven that he had
scheduled. So far, 4 rejections and no call-backs. He is
discouraged, but he has worked out alternate plans with his advisor
in case nothing this round pans out. He followed up on one of the
rejections, looking for feedback on how he could do better in the
interview or in his studies to be considered for that type of
position, and was told he made the short list and that any other year
he would have received a call-back, but this year there are just
very, very few positions for interns.
Jenn will be leaving for Madrid the day after tomorrow. She's busy
packing and getting all of her things together. Her flight leaves
Rochester at 4:30 pm and then Newark at 10 pm for Madrid. Today we
went to visit with Grace (picture above) - we cooked some sea bass on
the grill, and brought some beets and greens that I had prepared
yesterday.
Jim and Nancy have made their arrangements for visiting over New
Year's - they'll be getting in the afternoon of 30 December and
leaving the afternoon of 2 January - I hope that others are able to
visit as well! Please let us know your plans!
That's about it - hope everyone is well.
Kind regards,
Terry
