Cutting it close...
Apr. 10th, 2001 08:38 amI just called Galina, expecting to not reach her; that is, expecting to be shunted off to voice mail, indicating a possibility that she was on the road home.
No dice.
She's still in Houston, after having an engine light come on in the "new" car and having the CarMax folks work on it for a while. I hope this is not a portent of things to come. I've called the local Ford dealer in Durango, and have an appointment for Thursday at 1:30 pm.
We are cutting it close, personnel-wise around here. Drew and Shannon depart for her folks' house in California on the 12th (they had wanted to leave tomorrow, but without Galina here, that would leave me alone to run the shop...an impossible task).
As it is, with Drew and Shannon gone, it'll be me and Galina for the rest of the week (except Thursday afternoon, as noted above). We expect Lee to return on Saturday or Sunday, so she'll be available to work next week, but that will still leave the shop short, since I leave on the 17th for Houston to cover the next ISS flight.
I need to get on the phone and make sure there are enough people available to work while Drew, Shannon, and I are gone. I feel I am cutting this one way too close.
Cheers...
