This morning I was tying up loose ends. We located Libbie's Score Card account which has 18,000 points in it. She can trade that for a gift card. Yesterday I paid the 8,000 dollar Visa bill which was our deposit for the Alaska trip. We probably are spending too much for this one trip. I imported the MVL refids from Joe Bruns into an SQL table, now I need to write a program to incorporate that into the existing database.
During the afternoon I wrote a sub to populate the database with the refids. Some of the refids didn't match up to the names thanks to european characters and also the species. I made up REFids for the species. After the database was populated I used iTunes to fetch the file so I could include it in the assets.
Dinner was a salad and lima beans then we went out to the Elks at 7 PM for the 7:30 PM dance with Rollin and the tune swingers. We had a very nice night. The dance floor was not crowded but the orchestra was unbelievably loud in that low ceiling room. The dances were mostly foxtrot but we had a very nice evening. It was over at 9:30, we made it to the end. During the day I used an online service called homeadvisor and was contacted by Louis of Carolina Contracting. He said he would stop by Friday or Saturday to give me an estimate for scraping the ceiling in the back bedroom.
