Thank you to Barancoire and Didi!  The little guy is cute IMO.

It's so beautiful here today.  The sun is shining, the temps are in the mid-40s, but it is terribly windy.  We got more propane and are going to bar-b-que today!

Ron's back on the 11-7:30 shift this week.  So I'll have to run & pick up Andrew from school after work, which means he'll have ( Read more... )

I've finally landed a permanent job!  Of course it's dependant upon the drug test, but there shouldn't be a problem there.

I was hoping that the K-Mart job would come through, but I wasn't going to be waiting around while they go through their job freeze.

Had a very good interview on Tuesday and they offered me the job - contingent upon the drug test ( Read more... )

I've been trying to shrink down all our extraneous stuff by selling off these things.  I sold my eliptical bike (which took up a HUGE, not to mention was very heavy), sold some Zines, sold the carpet cleaner, and will be posting Kelly's bike, tv & bedroom dressers shortly.

No, I'm not kidding.

We had our team Christmas party last night.  Everyone at the restaurant was looking at us crazy for the gift exchange and the elf hats and the "Merry Christmases" we toasted with.

Not sure why we had it late, since we didn't meet with the ad agency for the two holiday weeks, so we weren't as busy.

But oh, well!  It was fun anyway.

Thank you to everyone for your comments & condolences.  I hadn't seen J in 4 years, and he looked good then.  I thought he had beaten the addictions, but I guess not.  I do know that the injury he received on the job was devestating.  He couldn't work again, and I think that played into his mindset and his addictions.

The diabetes was hereditary.  ( Read more... )

I just realized I forgot my mother's birthday on Wednesday  - okay, she's been gone 16 years, but I could still buy some flowers in her memory and wish her a Happy Birthday,

And then Wed night/Thur morning, I did another "blonde" thing, though I really like to blame it on the MS.  I got up to let the doggies out.  And I usually have a bowl of cereal ( Read more... )

I got to work and my id wouldn't work.  The security guard called - somewhere - and said my id had been de-activated, and she took it.  I had to walk around the building (in cold weather, about 1/2 mile), to the main entrance, where they called my manager.

Apparently every three months all contractors & temps have to be "re-newed".  And since P ( Read more... )

In honor of my littel grandson-to-be (and since the shower is coming up), I had my nails painted blue.  The left hand is Starsky Midnight Blue and the right hand is Hutch Cerealan Blue.  LOL  My hubby thinks I'm nuts ( Read more... )
