Subject: Feel any way/News of any form/What are you going to do today - NOVEMBER

I didn't see the November thread started up yet, so I figured I'd post it.

Way to stay on top of things! lol

Last weekend was helping my parents get the outside stuff done since Dad can't do it.  We drained the hot tub, removed and stored all the screens (he made us nervous helping us with the storing part), cleaned the eaves, and got the leaves, etc. off the back deck.  Mom said we got more done than she hoped we would.

Today I am still trying to psych myself up to work this Saturday without a grudge (not very successfully so far).  I have to administer a test to 7 people (yes, I will have another person there, but she gets paid).  We have to be there BY 7:00 a.m. and may not get done until 5:00 p.m. with a whole 30 mins for lunch.  I won't get paid for it, I will miss the last Ferris home football game and to add salt to that wound, I will also miss the Michigan-Michigan State game  >:(  .  I will get over it--or at least won't let it show--on Saturday.

On a positive note:  I am feeling VERY good about my dad's recovery (wish I could have gone to the follow up appt w/ the surgeon) and am relieved my mom is willing to include me in things she wouldn't even have dreamed of a year ago.  We'll go over next weekend after I get back from a conference in Battle Creek on Friday.  I asked Mom if they needed us every weekend and she said no, every other gives them something to look forward to.  Works for me.  Any projects they need us for can wait until we get there.  Now I just have to figure out how to get down to Buchanan for a little bit to take my "other" mom some durable medical equipment that I promised her....  ???

It should be a good month........  :)

Well...last night I heard some sad news from my dad's side of the family. My great-uncle Bill, who is the brother of my paternal grandmother, passed away yesterday afternoon at his home in Janesville, Wisconsin (somewhere near Milwaukee). He was 77 and had a heart attack. His two daughters (my dad's cousins) reported the news yesterday to my dad, via the phone. Bill was the last of my great-uncles (from either side of the family); he had come out to California a few times to visit his family members out here, most recently in 2003, when my grandma was turning 75. We had also visited him in 1994, when he'd been living in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Funeral arrangements are for this Saturday in Milwaukee, but there's no way that we're gonna be able to fly out there on such short notice. My dad will definitely miss him, since Uncle Bill was his godfather. :\'(

Well, today I have 2 assignments due (well, one of them is a joint assignment for 2 classes) so that'll be a relief. After that it's just 1 final exam then I'm finished for 2007. That went fast!  :o

Amy- Trust me: these games are never what they're cracked up to be.
But I'm sorry you have to miss them, since you were obviously looking forward to them.

AFM- I dunno.

Another long boring day of jury duty in downtown Cleveland, my one group got called back to the courtroom and I wasn't picked for that particular jury so you go back down into that holding area and can just wonder around and screw off (like post on inthe00s from my phone lol), I thought I was gonna get off early today and then at 2:30 the call of death came as I was called yet again as part of another group (3rd one I've been in this week) where they will pick out what 14 of 22 people. And of course I got out right at the peak of the rush hour. Thankfully it is over tomorrow unless I get picked for this jury then I might have to come back Monday  ::). So far I haven't been in any actual juries, just been shuttled up and down the building like cattle. It's an interesting experience I guess lol.

It gets more interesting if you actually get picked.

I know this, because I was selected about 2 or 3 yrs. ago, and I ended up serving as Jury Foreman.

Spent today at home with Elizabeth.

We went to her friends house yesterday so they could go trick or treating.  Good time had by all.  Just thinking about coming home when Elizabeth came to me in tears.  She'd fallen off one bed and hit her forehead on the frame of the bed opposite.  Nice bump forming.

When we got home she said she felt dizzy and her eyes hurt. I took her to the children's hospital where they checked her over and decided she was alright really.  We got home around midnight and I also had to wake Elizabeth up every three hours.  She felt too tired today to go to school.

I have to go to work in the morning and then afterwards I have what could be my last softball game of the year. playoffs are next week, but I'm having surgery to correct the lashes of my lower eyelids next Thursday and will miss the last games. If we win tomorrow night, we will be #1 seed in the playoffs with the best record so that is our goal and I'll do all I can to make that happen.

Today I am going to a Jazzercise class (I think its the new name for popmobility/aerobics).  It's been organised by one of the R-R wives - she has trained to be a Jazzercise teacher whilst living here.  There will be coffee and cakes afterwards I think (which sort of defeats the purpose but there you go).

Not sure what else I'll do today.  Probably nothing more exciting than cook dinner!

Had a great day at work yesterday, Micah had a great day at school.  Dropped her off at the volleyball game and went to Bennigan's.  Got 30 mins of live Celtic music before she called to be picked up.  Went home and she took the car to go study at the Ferris library.  She got home a little after 10 and came in the door in tears.  She wrenched her knee (the one that had arthroscopic on it) after it cracked and couldn't walk on it (right knee so driving home was interesting, luckily not that far or on busy streets).  Took her to ER, but all they could do was x-ray it and recommend MRI.  They put her in an immobilizer and told her to get back on crutches to keep her weight off it.  Let her take a Vicodin at 7:15 this morning and took her to school (she really can't miss more days if it can be helped).  Told her I didn't expect her to make it all day, but to go as long as she could.  Of course the Vicodin hadn't taken effect before we left the house and the bumping of the car on the road (not great roads here and the alley is worse) had her crying her eyes out by the time we hit the first light.  I went in to the office to explain what happened and that she could call me at work if necessary.  If she can make it til 1, then I'll go get her on my lunch hour.  Still waiting to hear back from the Orthopedist about what she wants me to do.  :-\\

Poor thing! Hugs and karma to you as i can't send it to her.

As for me, it's friday which is good but all i have to look forward to is going home and doing more battle with mould, the real downside of living in an old house with no cavity wall insulation and hardly any damp course.  :-\\
I had a load of stuff stored under the bed in the spare room that has all gone blue and furry. I've salvaged what I can but had to throw out some stuff I'm sad to have lost.I'm hopeing I can salvage the bedcover which has some mould on it but thankfully not too much, as I love it.

Bleach is now my best friend.........

Doesn't your landlord have to do something about that? I'd suggest using ammonia, but man! That stuff is super toxic. :P

My parents dealt with that nasty wall mold when I was younger. We were always getting sick from it. Once we moved, we were fine.

I'm not doing much today. Just cleaning up and washing laundry. Want to get it done early though so I have enough time to exercise before Midas' show comes on.

I had the windows open last night and rubber gloves on!  ;D Oh and old clothes incase I spashed myself.  ::) Luckilly my 12 inch records which were stored under there are fine. The record cases they were in went a bit mouldy but I cleaned them off. I did loose a few handbags though BOOHOO.

I did a load of research on the web and I can't really get stroppy with the landlord as it's pretty much my own fault. I had the bed up against an outside wall with a huge bedcover drapped over it so there was no airflow and the air vent in the room was closed...........
I also quite often dry my clothes in the house by hanging them in the doorway on hangers. All things I shouldn't have done.  :-\\

However I have now pulled the bed away from the wall and opened the air vent so if it does happen again I will be after a dehumidifier from the landlord I guess. From his side we do have the wrong windows in the house and as I say there is no cavity wall insulation and a very poor damp course.

Well...last night I heard some sad news from my dad's side of the family. My great-uncle Bill, who is the brother of my paternal grandmother, passed away yesterday afternoon at his home in Janesville, Wisconsin (somewhere near Milwaukee). He was 77 and had a heart attack. His two daughters (my dad's cousins) reported the news yesterday to my dad, via the phone. Bill was the last of my great-uncles (from either side of the family); he had come out to California a few times to visit his family members out here, most recently in 2003, when my grandma was turning 75. We had also visited him in 1994, when he'd been living in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Funeral arrangements are for this Saturday in Milwaukee, but there's no way that we're gonna be able to fly out there on such short notice. My dad will definitely miss him, since Uncle Bill was his godfather. :\'(


Sorry to hear this, my prayers are with you and your family.




I ran to the mall for a couple of things and later today the kids are going to have their Christmas pictures taken.

Today I am going to a Jazzercise class (I think its the new name for popmobility/aerobics).  It's been organised by one of the R-R wives - she has trained to be a Jazzercise teacher whilst living here.  There will be coffee and cakes afterwards I think (which sort of defeats the purpose but there you go).

Not sure what else I'll do today.  Probably nothing more exciting than cook dinner!


It's also known as "Kickboxing."

How well did you know him?

Pretty well. Even though he didn't visit California very much during his lifetime, he was always glad to see his nephews who lived out here (including my dad), and his grandnephew (me). He liked to work with wood; he even made a few wooden boxes which he brought to California when he came out in 2003. So I'll always have something to remember him by.

I got one that tops it all. Several years ago when I lived in my own apartment, I mailed my rent to my landlord like I always did (unless he was on the property around the first and then I would hand it to him and save myself a stamp). One month he called me and told me he had not received my check-thinking that I may have forgotten that month (it happens). We both started tracking it down. I went to my bank to find out that it was cashed and requested the canceled check (since they don't send them back automatically). What my landlord found out just totally floored me.

-When my check arrived at the Post Office, the workers put it in the wrong box. (Mistake #1)
-The box was to some doctor's office. The workers at the doctor's office opened the envelope. Didn't even bother to look at who it was addressed to or who the check was made out to, stamped the back with "For deposit only", and put it in with a stack of other checks. (Mistake #2)
-The doctor's office took all those checks to the bank and the teller at the bank just deposited all those checks into the doctor's account without bothering to look at the checks. (Mistake #3).

Thanks for your concern (and karma to you) but it is nothing major-I'm not even too sure what it is. The blues? Just not quite feeling sociable. I just haven't been feeling right for about a month now. But, I think I may be getting better (I hope). I can guess what it is.

Today I participated in, what they claim is, the largest charitable event in the world. It was the 27th annual
Delaware Valley A.B.A.T.E.'s Toys For Tots Motorcycle Run. There were thousands of motorcycles in this event.
Just to give you an idea of how big it was; at 12:00 sharp the first motorcycles started up, where I was in line
I didn't even start my motorcycle until 12:11.

It was a slow parade to Childrens Hospital Of Philadelphia so I had to nurse my bike the last few miles because
the engine was running so hot. Right now my clutch hand is killing me, but it was all good.

Justin and I went back to where I used to live for the weekend. I never knew it would be so hard finding a place to sleep. None of my family would let us spend the night for .. well, the lamest reasons imaginable, pretty much (real nice, eh?), so we were pretty close to driving back home in the middle of the night.

Finally, Shippensburg is feeling like home. I visited where I used to live for not even two days, and was all "'Kay, cool, I'm ready to go home.."

So, on that note, feels good to be home.

Finally did some grocery shopping.

It's a strange thing, not getting food you're used to.
Beef I can give up easily (Melissa is having a tougher time with it).
Pork is a little tougher, but I can cope.

Lamb, on the other hand....THIS I have trouble with.

On the other hand, though- I get to experiment with meats I am not as familiar with, or get much of.
I also get to buy more seafood (shrimp is a popular item in my house).

Well...last night I heard some sad news from my dad's side of the family. My great-uncle Bill, who is the brother of my paternal grandmother, passed away yesterday afternoon at his home in Janesville, Wisconsin (somewhere near Milwaukee). He was 77 and had a heart attack. His two daughters (my dad's cousins) reported the news yesterday to my dad, via the phone. Bill was the last of my great-uncles (from either side of the family); he had come out to California a few times to visit his family members out here, most recently in 2003, when my grandma was turning 75. We had also visited him in 1994, when he'd been living in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Funeral arrangements are for this Saturday in Milwaukee, but there's no way that we're gonna be able to fly out there on such short notice. My dad will definitely miss him, since Uncle Bill was his godfather. :\'(

Apparently for a while as well as burning a 'guy' an effigy of the Pope was also burnt.  A lot of British traditions were carried on over in New England.  In some areas there is a large Irish population which, I suspect, resulted in the Pope burning part coming more to the fore.

Anyway, unfortunately we won't be celebrating with fireworks here.  The laws are fairly strict about when fireworks can be set off and the locals seem keen to report these things to the local police force.  Wouldn't want to appear in the local papers would we?

It's my Grandad's birthday today.  He's 93 I think.

Dai is away for a few days with work.  He's gone to somewhere in Florida - if he comes home wearing Mickey Mouse ears I know he was telling me a story!

Housework today (when I can get motivated) and then James has acting class after school.  home for a quick meal and then James has a Tiger Scout meeting tonight.  Unlike in the Uk he has to have an adult with him.  Since Dai is away Elizabeth will also have to come to the meeting.

Yes, Chucky posted a thread about the "disguised emoticons" in the Penguin News. Personally I think it's all too confusing.


Just 'hover' your mouse over the emoticon in the reply box.  And then put up with it for one day! It's nice to see Chucky doing somehing to honour a day outside the US.  Actually his Thanksgiving hat ones would probably do.  I always picture Guy Fawkes wearing that sort of hat for some reason.

Thanks, Karen.  I didn't mean to sound like I was complaining, it was just a surprise.  I never got to learn about GF as I live on this side of the pond, so I didn't recognize him.  I, too, think it is great that this forum has members from all over the world and we can celebrate everybody's special days.  I guess I'm going to have to make a trip to the library.......

Before spending any of that, I'd call Social Security.
Just to be on the safe side.
Usually, when they issue a check, it's for a reason.

Micah doesn't have today off for elections (we don't use high schools for polling stations in BR), but she does have Nov 15 off for "Safety Day" (first day of firearm deer season in MI).  I wanted to take the day off and take her to Grand Rapids to do some Christmas shopping, but with being gone the rest of this week for a conference and then having to take Monday morning off to take her to the orthopedic surgeon (she suffered a setback last week and they want to see her this week, but I don't have anyone who can take her, so it's first thing Monday morning), I can't take any more time in this short a timeframe.  I mentioned it to a co-worker (small office, need to make sure time off won't cause a staff shortage)-she simply rolled her eyes and made a comment about Micah missing more school.  Very disheartening.

Today has been a ROUGH day (the roughness started at 7:35 a.m.!!!!)

Tell her to stuff it. It's none of her damned business when and why your daughter misses school.

So yesterday I had my hair cut and it looked really nice when she fixed it.  Today as I was attempting to style it myself I realized that she basically F'ed it up.  I have never had a hair cut as bad as this.  There are long pieces all over, the layers are completely uneven, I could have given myself a better cut.  I'm pissed off and I feel pretty self conscious about it.  So I go back on Thursday to have it fixed...I might have to get the Sinead look.  ;D

We just got back from going to an aquarium in Newport, Kentucky (across the river from Cincinnati, Ohio).  It was nice.  They had the usual fishes.  But this one was pretty cool, they also had Sea Otters, Sharks, Penguins and Lorakeet birds.  You could buy nectar (and a raincoat) to go in and feed the lorakeets.  They were flying around all loose, and just landing on you.  It was a little scary, but cute when about 6 birds landed on my husband's friend.  I got a video and some cute pictures of our day.  I will share them when I get them uploaded.  Been a long day and we are both tired, so it may have to wait until tomorrow.

thanks and I'm actually rather upbeat about it. the condition is called Trichiasis::Trichiasis is an uncornfortable condition in which the eyelashes are misdirected toward the eyeball and scratch its surface, the cornea. The position of the lower lid is normal, but the lashes point in the wrong direction. This may cause infection and scarring of the cornea.

mine are both eyes, and they're the lower lashes. how they got this way is a mystery

I don't think I have the style to bring anything back.. I just like looking like a complete bastard.  ;D

Everyone out here in the mid-west wanders around in their backwards baseball caps, ripped to pieces jeans and american eagle shirts, I do my best to give them all something to think about as they parade around, clones of each other.

Mike- I wish you a speedy recovery.

It reminds me of the RK surgery I had when I was 17.
Not the laser surgery, but the old-fashioned one, with the diamond-sharpened scalpel cutting.

I'm sure you'll come out fine, man.
Just take it easy.
thanks a lot Wayne. I think it will be a piece of cake


Ouch, that must have hurt. How come it took so long to getting around to doing it right?

it does hurt when the lashes are poking directly into the eye, and i waited just because the temporary fix, of having them plucked was ok, and I'm kind of a wuss when it comes to surgical hospital stuff, but this is right in the surgeons office, he's highly recommended and so after almost 2 years, I finally made the decision to have it done.

Still coughing up stuff. I think I know how a cat feels when they cough up furballs.

Hope you feel better Wayne.  I, too, have been fighting a cold or something lately.  Mostly sinus headaches and allergies.

I finally made a dr.'s appointment a couple days ago, but it isn't until the end of the month so either I'll be better or not.  At least I can talk to him about my high blood sugar readings and see what I need to do to take better care of myself.

Yup. Also, Howard needs to check these sudden windfalls of things (the extra SS money and the food stamps). They could be making a mistake and he's going to get hit with it later.

I know we'd qualify for food stamps and stuff, but we're okay, so I'm not even going to bother with it. However, I do want to get WIC so I can get free milk. The boy goes through three gallons a week :o and that really adds up.

Oh, no doubt. But it's better to make sure, especially with government agencies. Unemployment is still trying to collect $400 from me because THEY overpaid ME three years ago. Needless to say, they aren't getting sh*t from me, at least voluntarily. They usually take my state taxes, which amounts to maybe $25. :D

I didn't even feel like eating dinner until after the pain was gone...which wasn't until after 9 PM. As a result, I stayed up a little later and didn't get enough sleep...so I was tired this morning.

Thanks but we don't play Texas Hold 'Em. We play "REAL" poker  ;) -5 card draw, 7 card stud and variations.

We always play dealers choice. Most games are either 5 card draw or 7 card stud (Texas Hold 'Em is a form of 7 card stud). The main difference is what is wild or not except in Baseball where you get an extra card.

Our poker game was a bit of a bust last night because two of the guys didn't realize that we were on-so it was just 3 of us-which isn't as much fun. But, I was the big winner (all 36 cents worth-I have to be very careful not to spend all of that in one place).  ;D ;D ;D  But, we did have a nice visit with our friend but we manage to leave the poker chips at his house.

We will have our Auto Loan paid off- about $85/month.

The Wizard of Oz is the best movie  :) nice to hear you had a good time "networking" Amy and I'm not recovered yet. I still have two black eyes from the surgery, but hopefuly that will go away soon. I'm treating my eyelids with ointment & icepacks a couple times a day. Sorry to hear Micah has a problem with hers, the plucking of eyelashes is good and bad, good because it relieves the pain & irritation from them poking the eye, bad because they can grow back thicker. mine are the lower lashes and i think they're all gone now  :o

Today I'm off school for the Veterans Day holiday observance. This is interesting because the last time Vets Day fell on a Sunday, which was in 2001, Monday the 12th was not a university holiday. This time, however, they've decided to make it one. This is good because it'll give me some more time to study for an exam that I have on Wednesday of this week. My professor had originally scheduled it for last Friday, but he postponed it at the last moment because we needed to review for it. So hopefully I'll be ready in a couple days.

What a crazy day today at work.I'm doing cart collecting and all of a sudden I thought someone had threw something at me then I found out it was a seagull or pigeon that pooped right on me but it got the vest only and not much of my jacket.And also this guy is taking his cart of groceries to his car and this old woman is yapping on her phone and trying to park her car at the same time so he yells at her but her window was up when that happened.Just too many cars to deal with in the parking lot,I feel like an airplane conductor. ;D ::)

yesterday, my eyelids started to feel better, than come nighttime they began to sting a bit, but not too bad today, there is still black bruise marks. I'm go to see the surgeon tomorrow for a followup and decide on when I can return to work.
today, all 3 of us are home, Diane's out grocery shopping, Julie's watching MTV and chatting on her laptop and then we take her back to her dorm tonight.

I plan to just take it easy today.

Melissa is doing some office work, but not much.
Teela is visiting her best friend, who's up from Sacramento.

Plan to get some coffee, momentarily.

May I suggest any game involving the New Orleans Saints?

I am a diehard fan, and have been since '82.
They are the most loveable underdogs in the NFL- they have never been to the Super Bowl.


I expect it will probably be a UConn Huskies match sometime.  The ground is about 10 miles from here.

Pretty much.

I hadn't seen her in about 2 weeks, which is very uncommon, we usually see each other 2 or 3 times a week at least, so I stopped by her place and she told me all about it.
For once I didn't have any obnoxious comments. Didn't really know what to say, it's easier when somebody dies.. that.. ya know, already had a life.


that's sad. good of you to be around when needed.


Yeah, thanks Mike.

At least she is ok, she told me what the deal was, something to do with conflicting blood groups and the body creating antibodies or something, but apparently it was very weird because if that happens it's normally very early on.

The Rh factor is a blood-surface antigen kinda like the ABO group antigens (that determine blood type) but is a bit rougher to deal with during pregnancy.  Usually the first baby, if the father was Rh-positive and the mother was Rh-negative, is okay, but the second one is at risk of being rejected since the mother has generated anti-Rh antibodies by then.

Big bummer.

On a lighter note, it's good to see that Davey DOES have a soul :)

My wife has an RH factor, also.
Because her blood type & my blood type are opposite, her body tries to abort when she's preganat.

She was given Rogam shots, and this helped her body to carry our daughter.
Teela was still born about 6 wks. premature.

Perhaps this bit of info would help her?

That's why I was asking if she'd been pregnant before.

My mother-in-law made some vague hints about her having trouble becoming pregnant.  I found out later that she is AB- blood and I know my husband is A+ so I assume it was a similar sort of thing.

I had a good four days off of work. I went to Justin's play- "Where The Wild Things Are". It was short, but he was absolutely phenomenal. The best I've ever seen him act, honestly. The next day, I went to breakfast with a friend and we also saw the play again, and even though I didn't think it was possible, he was better than the day before. I'm uberliciously proud of him. Afterwards, Justin and I traveled to Carlisle to see "Martian Child". It was such an amazing movie, everything I hoped it would be. We were both in tears by the end of it. On Monday, Justin's little brother and I hung out all day. I took him bowling and out for pizza.

Also, I'm so excited that my hair is practically dancing out of my scalp. I found out that Weston's playing at my favorite venue ever on December 15th. They'll be at Maxwell's in Hoboken, New Jersey. The atmosphere of that building and it's location is .. *sigh* Ugh, I'd give anything to live in that area. You walk out of the building, which is on the corner of a long street of brownstones, and you can see the New York skyline. Being that it's in December, I hope it snows a little bit!

Uncle Rick has cancer on his lungs, and in his face- educated guess is somewhere in a jaw hinge.
Either he'll survive, or prepare for Arlington.

He was in the Army between 30-40 yrs.
I know he went to Vietnam a couple of times, was in G-2, and spent time in Turkey.
So he has had an eventful life.

I would've liked to have gotten to know him better, but he's not really close to my Mom, and this is the 1st we've heard from him in years.

You do know the reason.  Life kicks us all in the balls and that is what is happening to you.  I think it will help ifyou to get in touch with your uncle and talk to him.  My mother and uncle were not close, my uncle lived on town over and, out of loyalty, I didn't have contact with him for many years, then he died and it was too late.  I will regret that for the rest of my life.  Ten to one if you call or write him and tell him you wish you could have known him better and how bad you feel, you, and he will feel better.

The biggest problem is that I have no idea how to contact him.
We heard about all this through my aunt, in Sacramento.
We aren't all that close, either....'nuff said.

Actually, the problem concerns a different issue, of a much more personal nature.
That's all I can really say, right now.

Taken the kids to school because we missed the bus.  Had a quick word with James's teacher.  She says he is working much better now and is concentrating well.

Elizabeth is going on a field trip today to the Pequot Museum.  I've heard its a bit anti-British so it will be interesting to see what she makes of it all.

You will find that in New England there is a relationship to the British that is very odd.  THe anti-British attitude is only manifested in the area of the Revolutionary War, and is more than made up for in the love of all things unrelated to that little skirmish.

Himself dragged me out of the house and away from the T.V on a mystery trip. I am a big fan of Art Deco architecture and a fan of the 'Poirot' T.V programme with David Suchet. So I got taken to the amazing Art Deco block of flats they film the T.V show in! We get there and sadly it is shrouded in scaffolding and plastic.  :(
So we were standing outside admiring what we could see of the building when this old lady comes over and asks us if we are looking at that particular building. When we said we were she said 'would you like to see inside? I live here' I was in seventh heaven, it has all the original fixtures and fittings, it's amazing. She took us to the top floor where they do the filming and then to the roof garden which has stunning panoramic views of the London skyline. We then went down into the basement where they have a swiming pool and gym, again all original fittings etc. It was incredible, as Himself said we could have been anybody! You aren't used to that kind of trust and kindness in this day and age really.
After that we went to the pub and shopping. ;D

Well, I work in a home with mentally ill/mentally handicapped men. I'd make them cook, but I'm almost sure that would be disastrous  ;D. The image you put in my head kinda brightened up my night, though XD.

I wouldn't mind it if I didn't specifically tell my boss that I suck at cooking. All the women I work with are pretty old, and most likely experienced with cooking.

They could at least have someone scheduled to work with me, to help out. It's not like I'm throwing hot dogs in the microwave, this is bloody Thanksgiving Dinner, for the love of God.

Ugh.


Okay, that makes more sense. :D

I'd tell your boss to get over there and help. You told him/her that you can't cook, so I'd say that's their responsibility to handle the bird.

Now I'm annoyed with your boss. You're giving up your holiday to work and he/she couldn't even spring for a pre-made meal that could be bought for less than $40 from any number of stores? Feh.

I am going to say something. Being that today, I actually somehow managed to ruin hot dogs, I don't think it's going to go so good.

Yeah, that'd be the nice thing to do, but honestly, the agency I work for is so screwed up, we'd probably get into big trouble if we don't provide a traditional meal for these guys. We'd probably get yelled at because they didn't get to wake up to the scent of turkey cooking in the oven like a lot of "normal" people do.

Another thing is, the guys I work for now are so extremely picky about what they eat, how it's cooked, and whatnot (one threw a radio towards my head, because I didn't know he liked spoons instead of forks), I know I'm going to spend hours cooking, it'll suck, and they'll refuse it.

I can't stand the "They don't know any better" bullcrap that I always hear. People greatly underestimate them. The people I used to work with when I lived at home were amazing, and they had the same problems as the current ones. These ones are just spoiled.

One thing to remember about cooking a turkey is that there are THREE bags of giblets inside. The first time I cooked a turkey by myself, I forgot the 3rd bag-and yes, it got cooked. Now, if that wasn't bad enough, the next year, I STILL forgot about that 3rd bag and cooked it again.  :-[ :-[ :-[  Needless to say, Carlos does most of the cooking.  :D ;D ;D ;D

Ugh, I'm sorry you have to work in such a place. And being mentally handicapped is no excuse for being violent, spoiled a$$holes. My aunt was doing the same work you did, and the people she cared for were very nice. They helped clean the house they lived in, ate whatever my aunt cooked, and did their outside work with no complaints and NO violence.

And the gizzards are the organs of a turkey: the liver, the heart, etc. Also, be on the lookout for the turkey neck.

;D exactly.they're the innards, all the delectable little turkey organs, the heart, liver, neck and something else nice and crunchy, not sure what it is  :o and some people eat them, but most use them to flavor the the broth for the gravy. cook em up for a while and then chop them up in your gravy, they're quite flavorful, but liver is a little too strong tasting for me.

I just had the horrible task of tracking down Himself, who had to go to work at 4.30 this morning and is not allowed a phone on his person whilst at work, to tell him his Dad is in hospital having been knocked down by a car last night. Thank the lord it is not too serious, broken leg and broken arm. Not sure what happens next, we wait for more news.

As for us, tomorrow we go up north to see B.J. Thomas & Billy Joe Royal. The firefighters put on a concert twice a year. I donate to them & they send us tickets. Sometimes we go to the concerts (the Rascals, a Beatles tribute band) or sometimes we give away the tickets (Lee Greenwood, some other country singer I didn't know and can't remember). After the concert, we will be going to my step-daughter's and spending the night. Monday is her birthday so we will be celebrating with her. Unfortunately, we won't get to see our granddaughter because she will be visiting with her dad.  :\'(

When you dream of death, that does not necessarily mean a physical death. It usually means change-a part of you may have died, but not you. So now, you have to figure out, what part of your old self gave way to a new. And that may or may not be a bad thing.

This weekend was mixed.

Bad happenings: Last night, Melissa & I got into a very bad fight, over a misunderstanding, and I didn't get to bed until 5 AM. (It sucks when you can't sleep)
Tonight, I had to deal with drunken Gridley college kids, who wanted to blow out my speakers by screaming into the mic. (I HATE that %^#^%&^!@~)

Good happenings: Mom got out for her 1st date in ages, so she didn't see last night.
I found out that one of my bandmates is trying to line us up for a gig in 'Frisco.

In some ways, it balances out, but in others it doesn't.

My cousin went missing last night.. well, yesterday afternoon actually. I'm not a fan of hers but being the only rational member of my family I went and found her and sorted the whole mess out. Ugh! This was supposed to be a relaxed week. I took the entire week off work and don't have any Uni issues to worry about. I think I might just go to work tonight and get out of the way, some of the local crew guys are working the hockey game strike because there's a concert tomorrow night. If I turn up I'll get paid, may as well.

Yikes! And she didn't say anything? Brave girl. :o


Well, she woke up and cried for a minute, said her wrist hurt and went back to sleep.  I just figured she twisted it or sprained it.  But when she still hadn't used it much, I knew something was wrong. 

I feel guilty because we waited so long to take her to the ER, but when there is no physical sign (it wasn't even swollen) how are you supposed to know?

She's ok, she wants a pink cast, I told her she should get a red and white one so it would look like a big candy cane, she looked at me like I'm the biggest idiot in the world and told me to "Be quiet!".  Yeah, she's feeling better.  ;D

Yesterday, we went to see Billy Joe Royal & B.J. Thomas. Carlos wasn't too impressed with Billy Joe (he didn't remember many of the songs). I thought he was good-but was suffering from a cough. B.J. was much better (and Carlos remember more of his songs-but not too many). The two of them did an OUTSTANDING version of "You Lost That Lovin' Feeling". They were the Righteous Brothers but they sounded damn close. And B.J. finished the concert singing the theme song to Growing Pains which I forgot that he did.

Then we went to my step-daughter's house. Her daughter was at her father's house & my step-son was away for a job so it was just her. We took her to dinner to celebrate her birthday (which is today). Then we went back to her place & watched the DVD of Weeds (we had never seen that show before-we enjoyed it). Then my step-daughter had to go to work.  :(  I didn't realize that she was working mids. She got in about 8 this morning but we were still asleep. We left before she woke up. She was sleeping so soundly that we hated to wake her up-she REALLY needed the sleep. So, we left a note for her. She did not make any comment about us NOT having a cig the entire time we were there. I don't know if she didn't noticed because she was so tired because of the awful hours she has been working or what.

We were only gone for 24 hours but it seems like we gone so much longer.

Heavens!  You are travelling to New York today.  Good luck, today is the most travelled day of the year.  Car, bus, train, plane, no one will be immune to back ups.  Have a good time, though.  If you go to the sight of 9/11 be sure to pop into St Pauls which is the little church adjacent to the sight.  It is a very nice historical church and has a 9/11 exhibit. Note the scuffed pews, that is where the rescue workers slept during the crises.

We made reservations at a restaurant for tomorrow. Yeah, I know, it sounds so...untraditional. But, it is only going to be the two of us and we didn't want to cook a meal. But the meal at the restaurant will be on donations only and the donations will be divided between the Lions' Club & the organization I used to volunteer for. Of course that got me to thinking, if I was still volunteering, I would probably be spending a good portion of tomorrow at the food shelf-taking in donations.

I guess we shall be doing the same thing. It's a family get together of sorts so I think me and my Uncle will drive up to bum-fudge Missouri then come back in the evening, we both hate being up there but in the interest of keeping the peace I suppose we'd better leave here early to get there late morning as it's a good 4 - 5 hour drive at least.

Just wanted to wish you (and everybody else that may be traveling) a safe trip wherever they may go.
thanks and same to you Patty. wow, your Grandma is 98 years old, that's awesome


Have a safe trip.

I guess we shall be doing the same thing. It's a family get together of sorts so I think me and my Uncle will drive up to bum-fudge Missouri then come back in the evening, we both hate being up there but in the interest of keeping the peace I suppose we'd better leave here early to get there late morning as it's a good 4 - 5 hour drive at least.
and same to you too Andy. long drive, wow. men's road trip  http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/12/headbang.gif  have a good day


worked today, but i did get off 1 hour early, came home and picked up Diane to go to the Thanksgiving evening service they had at our church tonight, mostly music, lots of drums, keyboard and electric guitars so it was pretty cool. came home and lit a fire in the fireplace, and was gonna sit out there with Diane & Julie but they're watching Project Runway  8-P  8-P

Everyone who is road tripping, BE CAREFUL. The weather is pretty nasty on this side of the US.

I'm just relaxing and resting my foot after making pies and deviled eggs. I twisted my foot/ankle while I was bustling around the kitchen, which aggravated the hell out of my plantar fasciitis. It keeps feeling like someone is stabbing me. :P

Yeah, the wind is just slamming into the side of our building. Gotta be 30mph, at least. Couple that with the rain and the lake effect snow, and you have deesasters.

Actually! I just found out that the turkey I saw in the freezer.. was actually for Christmas. Apparently, they already had Thanksgiving dinner at a Day Program they go to. All of my co-workers, and I thought that it was for Thanksgiving, but we didn't really take the time to ask the house manager if it really was.

Today, two of the three guys went home to be with their families. So it's just me and a guy who refuses to get up from his chair unless absolutely necessary.


I'd like to apologize to Mike, though! I'm sorry, you typed out the instructions for making a turkey, and everything. I felt so bad when I found out it wasn't for Thanksgiving!

We're leaving for family gathering.

November's been a mixed bag for me so far. When I came home from Majorca, I became more tired and felt that my weight loss hasn't been going as well as it did last month. There was one known death that I found out about this month. A Personal Trainer called Russ who worked at my gym passed away recently and all the other PTs are taking time off work, including my very own Tamara. I sent my PT some text messages, but she hasn't responded to them yet. She must be too depressed or devastated to contact anyone right now.

I also read some things that I wasn't happy about on my arrival from Majorca. Two members of staff had written some incident reports about me because I expressed some indirect negative comments towards them (e.g. "Why did JJ come to my door after 8 pm?"); one in September and one in October. This month, I also started doing some in-house art activities on weekends that coincide with Cecylia's weekend shifts. We did acrylic painting, stained glass painting and pastel drawing. I also got the impression that some staff and residents were disrespecting me by speaking to loudly at certain times of the day.

Yup-it is a tradition here, too. Unfortunately, last year (when Max was visiting) we couldn't listen to it because my step-daughter had borrowed it. But we have it back now-both copies (the original & 30 years later), so it will be played.

Busy, busy, busy.
Even though our gathering will only consist of four people this year---me, my parents, and my grandma---we still need to clean up the house real nicely for the holiday. So this morning I have been doing some vacuuming and house cleaning, and I will need to do more as soon as I sign off. Then we'll prepare the feast, which shouldn't be too much work, since there's only the four of us. :)

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

Made it to my parents' safely last night.  Weather improved the closer we got, but it has snowed all day today.  We'll eat in a while, then relax.  Mom wants Micah & me to go with her to get a Christmas tree tomorrow (don't think she has EVER gotten it this early).  On Saturday, she is taking M & I to Muskegon.  We'll drop off Micah at her favorite clothes store (Dots) to get the clothes she wants for Christmas (a tradition) and while she is doing that, we'll go to Wal-Mart to find me something (either a dig cam or a new printer, I hope).  Today I got one class's final exams graded, now I just have to record those.  I still have to grade and record the other class's, but there are only 14 of those.

Hope everyone is safe and happy!!!

Had hubby get my christmas tree out last night, but it isn't too big so (3 foot) so it won't be a bear to decorate.  It is really easy to assemble, but I always go overboard with the strings of lights (my favorite part).  I think last year I had 6 strings of lights with little room for anything else.  ;D
I'm going to try to restrain myself this year and actually try to decorate it more evenly.  Cat will love it, even though it's plastic, she always sniffs it and gets this look on her face like "Hey mom, what's this thing with the flashing lights growing in our living room?"  OK, that's me putting those thoughts in her head, she's probably just thinking...oh good...something else to knock over and then scare myself silly.

I had good intentions of putting the tree up, but didn't have the energy.

We ended up going to Golden Corral buffet early (about 11) and of course I ate myself silly.  Then we went and shopped a little bit at Big Lots.  We needed a broom (hubby is renting a garage and plans to move some of our crates of books and extra furniture into it.)  I also bought some Revlon version of Bare Minerals make-up.  Yes, I'm a sheep.  I've watched too many infomercials late at night and I want to look gorgeous.  For who?  I dunno.  I think as long as I wrapped myself in role-playing books and rolled some dice would be enough to send my hubby into the stratosphere.  lol  I just wanted to try the make-up just for myself I guess.

We then came home and slept.  Maybe we'll go to a movie or something in a little bit.

So, me, Justin, Darin, and Darin's cousin went Black Friday shopping at 4:00am. Well, actually, we didn't plan on buying anything. We kinda just stood in the crowd, sipped coffee, and observed. Wal-mart is.. insane. They have HUGE piles of items covered by a tarp, and at 5:00am, they rip the tarps off, and people get.. COMPLETELY OUT OF HAND. We sent Darin in the bustle, to pretend he was getting items. I think he only pissed people off.

He did get a huge piece of cardboard for breakdancing, though.

Okay, so going this morning wasn't a complete waste of time. We got one of Justin's little brother's presents- a Nintendo DS. Apparently, the people in line for the new special edition DS were waiting in front of them since 2:00am. We got there at 5:00, when they went on sale, and just grabbed one. Their waiting was so unnecessary.

Oh, and I got to play Rock Band for a pretty long time! =D

After I have eaten I get the pleasure of cleaning all my mouldy shoes!  :P
I'm on the last bit of mould cleaning. My Mum, god bless her, had a flash of genius and suggested Miltons Fluid. Don't know if you have that in the U.S but you use it to sterilize baby's bottles and clean nappies/diapers etc. I picked up a bottle yesterday and sure enough it says for use on fungii among other things *result* You can use the solution on all sorts of materials so it looks like I can save my tartan Doc Martens which makes me VERY happy.  :)

I picked up a copy of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" for the boy and the movie "Night At the Museum" ($8.99, originally over $20 :o). Then we went to Hollywood Video to rent some movies. I found some used movies ("Dreamgirls" and "Stranger Than Fiction) for $3.99 a piece. Not too shabby.

Gonna spend the rest of the day getting the house in order. Our friends came over with their dogs last night, and the white doggie shed all over the place. ;D Not a big deal, but the boy likes to roll all over, so I need to clean it up. Then I need to figure out where to put our furniture so I can put up the Christmas tree.

Gis, it was family tradition for us to put up the tree the day after Thanksgiving. I'm not even sure when we started doing that, but it makes the house feel all warm and cozy. :)

I was like, "You've got to be kididng me!"....but luckily..a few hours later, it totally picked back up....and we were swamped the rest of the day.

We got a tree and got it all decorated.  Usually we do it a couple weeks before Christmas as my parents are usually on Hilton Head this week and next week, but my mom has been so concerned about how they were going to do a tree w/ my dad the way he is, so we went and got it done today.  It looks pretty good though you can tell the drought took a toll on the fullness of the trees.  She feels so good about what we got done today, it makes it all worth it.

We're going to get most of the shopping out of the way.  Medical bills coming in fast and furious so the only one who is really going to get much of anything is Micah.  I think Mom convinced my bro not to come up for Christmas since they will be able to see him right after the new year when they go to Florida for the winter.  We had such a relaxing day yesterday, I would be ok if he didn't come.

Now we are watching "Happy Feet" for the 2.5 time (we watched it 1.5 times last night)    ::)

So once thanksgiving is over is it like official that you must get your christmas tree or something??   ;D

NO....I always wait until the 2nd Friday of December or thereabouts to get it. That way it'll stay fresh through Christmas and into New Year's. Besides, I don't like to rush the holidays/seasons.

Today I was home for most of the day; we only went out to go to lunch at the harbor.

I would LOVE to wait for a week day to shop, but Rice has the Costco card and I hate driving. :P It wasn't too bad today though.

We had an adventure coming home. So we found the train set that the boy wanted at Costco. It was $30 cheaper (rebate good until tomorrow), but it was HUGE and we hadn't planned on buying it today. So we bought it and it didn't fit in the trunk. Rice and one of the Costco dudes had to tie it to the roof of the car. We had to drive home very sloooooowly, through the nasty traffic and the people who do not believe in crosswalks. We made it, but I had my hand out the window every five minutes to check to see if the twine was coming loose. :D

Oh, Palmetto Dunes is really nice. We've actually stayed in that area before, when I was younger. We had rented a condo for 2 weeks...but now, we just stay with either my aunt/uncle or my grandparents. My aunt and uncle live in a plantation called, Moss Creek Plantations (which isn't far from Palmetto Dunes), and my grandparents live in the infamous retirement community called, Sun City. :)

I hope so, most of the past Christmas's they have stayed fresh as long as we make sure it has plenty of water. This one is really green and fresh. 

I'm a little bummed because i just got beat in our poker game and am done until we start round 2 in about an hour. this sucks the BIG ONE!
on an up note, Diane won $42.50 on our special bonus prize when somebody gets 4 of a kind, so she's already won the biggest possible money prize available tonight and she's still in for the 1st & 2nd place prizes of $30 or $20.  and I'm out here in the computer room  while they play cards  :\'(

Just chilling out with a cup of tea. I have been working steadily since friday night having attacked the last of the mould I have been doing a major clear out and tidy up whilst I was at it. I can't believe how much junk I moved house with last year when I thought I had thrown it all!  ;D

God bless my brilliant motherthough! The Miltons Fluid worked a treat and my Docs are saved I'm a happy woman. I only ended up throwing 3 pairs of shoes, two of which were very old and knackered anyway so that was good. Next I am going to tidy under our bed so I can get the christmas cards out as that is where they are stashed. It's going to be horrific as I just shove everything out of the way under there...... :o

For those of you who were worried about Carlos, he is ok-NOW!  We had a scare yesterday. He was having severe pains in his stomach. Since I don't drive, he felt that it was time to go to the emergency room so I called 911. The EMT came with an ambulance. (I just happen to know the driver). We spent most of the day in the ER and they did a cat scan. We (including the doc) thought he had appendicitis. Come to find out, he has diverticulois-which means he has pouches pushing out from his colon. He was released so we called a friend to give us a ride home. I told him that I really didn't relish the thought of spending another night in the waiting room (like I did when he had his surgery). He told me that if he did have to stay overnight, he was going to send me home-as if I was going get any sleep without him next to me. I felt bad because he only had his robe & slippers-so I gave him my coat. He is on meds now and has to eat pretty much a liquid diet for the next few days (which may be a good thing because it will probably help him lose all the weight he has gained since we quit smoking). The pain has subsided. In fact, he is well enough and drove me to the store to get his prescription filled (he stayed in the car while I ran in) and right now he is playing on his computer. I didn't want to say anything last night because I wanted to make sure it was ok with him to let everyone know.

We both appreciate everyone's concern.

Also,I now know that wearing cotton socks and wearing steel toed shoes do not mix.The steel toe was rubbing against my toe that had weak flesh yesterday.Never again will I wear it until I buy stronger socks.

Forget about the steel toed shoes.  I don't know anyone who wears them anymore.  You are supposed to in construction, but they the metal makes them colder in winter and hotter in summer.

He should be alright with the thermal socks.  I found they helped, also thermal insoles are good.  I think Howard has had problems with carts running over his toes so steelies seems the way to go.

I took Megan to school and then I took Hunter to school.  He got hysterical when I was about to leave, screaming "I WANT MOMMY!!".  He's never done that before.  :-\\  I felt awful leaving him but I called a bit later and he was fine.

I had to go to the bank and put stop payments on some checks since we lost a checkbook.  >:(

I ran a few errands and I will be going back out in a little while to pick up Hunter. 

That's it.

I just read your posts, Isabel.  I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during the upcoming holiday season.  I bet it was beautiful and you did a lovely  job.  I'm sure she would have been proud.  I thought my grandmother would live forever since she seemed to keep going despite everything the doctors did to her (without bothering to tell the family).

Another trip to the orthopedist this afternoon.  She is really worried about Micah's knee.  She said the radiologist's report that there was a partial tear in the ACL is inaccurate, that mechanically her knee is fine.  She is worried about the fluid building up and is concerned that the rheumatololgist can't see her til Jan. 9.  Basically the poor kid can't do vigorous exercise until the rheumatologist makes his diagnosis as to whether it is rheumatoid arthritis or not.  She told Micah she can stay on the cheerleading squad, but wrote a note saying she shouldn't do anything high impact.  This is killing Micah (she is used to playing sports every season).  Dr. said if it is RA like she thinks (she had to remove a lot of arthritis), then the rheumatologist will take it from there.  She said if that isn't the diagnosis, she may have to re-examine her options and possibly scope the knee again...but it all hinges on the rheumatologist.  Micah's in so much pain, if they don't diagnose RA, I'm going to ask if there is a test for Fibromyalgia (I don't think that's it, but it has to be something).

Time to leave to go teach.

Hope everyone had a great day and has a great night!

My boyfriend and I have decided to become vegetarians for moral reasons. Both of us have considered it many times, but never really went through with it. Well, all it took was one viewing of "Meet Your Meat", and I didn't want anything to do with it. I would love to be 100% vegan, but I'm not sure I could afford Vegan food, or not. Some of the ways they get milk are completely inhuman as well. It's just too cruel for me to support.. =/

I think as long as you're not buying 100% organic stuff, you can afford it. And it's a shame you don't live around here. We have sandwich shops (that have faux meats and cheese and mayo :o) and restaurants that cater to Vegans. Chicago is a very Vegan friendly city.

I'll eat Vegan food (our friend is a Vegan, so sometimes I have to cook without meat), but I really need my meat. And I don't care if people are Vegan as long as they aren't militant about it. It's like religion: you don't try to convert me, and I won't spike your dinner with animal products. :D

Nah, I don't care if other people eat meat. Most of my family, and all of my friends do, I'd better not care too much! It's not just for the cruelty, I feel crappy after I eat meat. And vegetarians are .. I think they said are 50%-75% less likely to get cancer and heart disease. Those run in my family like CRAZY.

sorry, it was just a year, not that great.  but the one thing I remember most was all the music that is now considered by some as overrated and overplayed was just being played for the first time  and that was cool. ok, no more.  I wish that some good directors would make a tv series of the decades. hey, they could call it inthe60s, inthe70s, inthe80s, inthe90s, inthe00s and show history and pop culture during those times as one long 10 DVD set.

Well, we've had an eventful morning. Jason came into our room about 5am, just crying and crying. I thought he had had a bad dream again (he's prone to nightmares). So he got in bed with us and he kept crying and saying, "Neck...neck." Then I noticed he was holding the left side of his neck and playing with his left ear. Oooh boy. So I finally told Rice to just get ready and find out where the children's hospital was. So he does that, I get ready, he gets the boy ready, and we head out in below freezing temperatures. Luckily, the children's hospital is a mile away. The emergency room isn't busy, so we get in and get triaged. Jason freaks out as usual (he hates doctors), and they send us to a regular room. Two doctors check him over.

The diagnosis is a possibly forming infection. They said there is no sign of one right now, but the pain might indicate something developing. So the docs gave him a prescription of Motrin and some ear drops to clear out and numb the ear. They seem to be helping now. He's not crying anymore.

So that was my morning. :P

Thanks guys. :) I gave him some Motrin and the ear drops earlier and he seemed to be doing better. Then I went to the restroom for two minutes, came out, and he was asleep. So I guess it's helping him. He's been asleep for about 2 1/2 hours now, and he hasn't cried or woken up or anything.

Yes, he's still breathing. :D

Is there another pain killer you can give him alongside the Motrin (different type)?  In the UK when my daughter had an ear infection I was advised to use both Ibuprofen and Calpol (Paracetemol).  If you give them at the right intervals the pain killers don't have a chance to wear off.  Hope he feels better soon.

Dentis and Dr, and lab work. Hopefully you and hubby get through it with minimal pain. I wasn't a fan of the dentist either, until recent dentist. he is great, his staff is kind and they have helped me overcome fears and now I don't mind going which is a complete turnaround.

I'm starting to think that Jason had no signs of an infection at all and had just hurt his neck really badly. He's a very restless sleeper (he will flail and kick the wall in his sleep), and there is a possibility that he turned it wrong or hit it somehow. After watching him yesterday and the way he was favoring the left side of his neck, I noticed it was a bit swollen. He would also cry if he turned it too fast or anything. So I gave him some Motrin last night so he would lie still while sleeping and that seemed to have help. He's turning it easier today and causing all sorts of merry havoc, so I think he'll live. :D I'll probably dose him with Motrin for a couple of days though, just so he sleeps easier and rests his neck without acting like a ninja in his sleep.

I'm just sort of embarrassed with telling the doctor he was holding his ear and stuff yesterday. He was, but maybe it was just his neck hurting all the way up to his ear. :-[

No need to be embarrassed.  There are many times you won't quite know what is going on with kids, and there will be many future winces remembering things you have done.  I wince alot and sometimes cannot believe he survived my over/under mothering.

Did I tell you about my card being rejected at cargo? I gave them the wrong card, it was from an account I had like $4 in.. that's why the one guy didn't like me. Annoying thing was, I have him another card.. and gave me a great tip.. and he still was a prick.

I'm having a good day so far.I was talking with my job coach and he was telling me things to do with all my saved money like invest in gold nuggets,sell my Michael Jackson memorabilia,Penny Power magazines or just go on Ebay and buy stuff that'll go up in value many years from now.
Howard this man is not a very good job coach judging by things you have told us on here and he DEFINATLY does not know what he is talking about when it comes to finance! Please don't listen to him!

Gis is absolutely right.  DON'T DO IT Your coach is way way off base, this is so egregious your job coach should be reported.  I have worked in investments, and I am a collector and am very familiar with the collectors market.  Investing in collectibles is the absolute worst thing anyone can do because it is subject to the whims.  Remember Beanie Babies? Remember Cabbage Patch Dolls?  Well people who were foolish enough to get caught up in those collectible frenzies will never recover.  Even the proven collectible market, like stamps and baseball memoribilia has its pitfalls. The collectibles market it for people who already have money to burn, because that is what happens a lot, they get burned.  Considering your income bracket the best you should do is putting your money in IRAs' or CDs' at your bank. If I was there I would punch your job coach in the mouth."

With a lazy day at home, watching cricket on tv in the morning and some of the movie "Babe: Pig In The City" and hammering the keyboard with some of the tunes from the opera Carmen. I am off to see (and hear) a concert tonight featuring Beethoven's 9th Symphony.
