No, she lives where she doesn't have winter like we do.  She lives where people like us who don't like winter would like to live during those months.

Her winter temps are well above zero.

I have a jacket, but I don't wear it very often in the fall/winter months.  A sweater or a long-sleeved knit top is usually enough.  :)

my only winter coat was owned in the 70s whenn I lived in dc.
I wore a suede jacket in the 80s with fringe cuz it was cool. Hotter than he'll but very cool
then I got a bombers jacket. I wore after watching top gun.
I also had a spuds mckenzie jacket.
and I went thru a denim jacket phase.
Jackets have never been about function with me. Always pop culture fashion.

I'd like to go a winter without wearing a coat.

Oooh, a Spuds McKenzie jacket!  :)  I once had a Spuds McKenzie t-shirt but because it had the "Bud Light" logo on it I wasn't allowed to wear it to school. 

I went through a denim jacket phase in the late 80s-early 90s...I owned several of them.  The last time I wore a denim jacket was 1993!  :D

I currently have a brown leather jacket (which I wear only a couple of times a year), and my old black leather jacket I first got in high school.

I vaguely remember my neighbor's teenaged son wearing a black Members Only jacket, circa 1982-1983.  At least I think it was a Members Only jacket!  :D

I think that December is going to be a turn around month for me. So much has happened this past year.
I have tried to keep a blog of the year, but that didn't turn out to be so good for me. I have it linked to this account, you can click the WWW under my name or I will link to it if you want to read. I have decided though that I am going to do away with it - in the respect of it being a journal. I have come to realize that some of my more inner thoughts just shouldn't be read by everyone and anyone - and so by the end of this month I will have edited out quite a few posts. Of course, a dear friend told me that I need to keep the posts that I am editing out, so I will do that as well. I think what I am going to do is get myself a really good journal - and sit down and write the old fashioned way. ;)

I am also not too sure how much I will be around this month either. I will be here to do the avatar contest, but aside from that I can't guarantee. Big Nasty should be home at some point this month, so that is a bonus. Other than that I hope everyone has a blessed holiday season.

I have decided though that I am going to do away with it - in the respect of it being a journal. I have come to realize that some of my more inner thoughts just shouldn't be read by everyone and anyone - and so by the end of this month I will have edited out quite a few posts. Of course, a dear friend told me that I need to keep the posts that I am editing out, so I will do that as well. I think what I am going to do is get myself a really good journal - and sit down and write the old fashioned way. ;)

I am also not too sure how much I will be around this month either. I will be here to do the avatar contest, but aside from that I can't guarantee. Big Nasty should be home at some point this month, so that is a bonus. Other than that I hope everyone has a blessed holiday season.

Now the first of December was covered with snow
So was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston



Not this year....

Met a friend for coffee/hot chocolate this morning, then browsed around Barnes and Noble.

After that I went to Curves.  There was supposed to be a walking session today using some DVD but we couldn't get the player to work.

After lunch I tried on the dress I planned to wear to the work Christmas dinner.  It doesn't fit.  :\'(  So I either starve myself and work out like mad for the next week or try and find another outfit.  :-\\

I'd think snow is more likely to fall in the northern regions of the U.S. versus the southern regions.

Going to LA tomorrow... I got 2 free tickets to see Everybody's Fine in Burbank. 

Called on an old friend I used to work with in Stockton back in 1990-92 she's from Glendale. Even tho I only live 90 miles from her (and I'm in LA ALOT!!!) I haven't seen her in 10 years!  so this should be fun.......or very, very awkward.

Somebody has to love me right? ;D ;D

The Lipton - I had to do it! No house is complete without Lipton's!!! Haha! I am kidding of course. I actually went looking for this brand of sleepy time tea that has peppermint in it, but of course couldn't find it anywhere. I figured I would settle for other flavours, only to find that Lipton is the only one available to me up here! So I decided I would try to accomplish 2 things - get you flavoured tea and hope that it made you laugh at the same time. Apparently I accomplished that! ;D Make himself drink them!;)

And for those who don't know... I also sent Gis an Original Sock Monkey. Of course, it isn't an original one from back in the day but it is pretty dang close.

But, never fear.  I have good people on my side and we are taking care of it.  I am doing it all with love in my heart, not hate and I'm winning.

Things stink BUT, being me, I am still a generally happy go lucky person.

I don't know if you heard, but I booted out the hubby on jully 4th.  I have not seen him since.  On my birthday he served my divorce papers.  On monday threatened to go to court to take Bode!

But, never fear.  I have good people on my side and we are taking care of it.  I am doing it all with love in my heart, not hate and I'm winning.

And I get to keep my house, which I am doing work on.  it will look great.
So, out of the ashes comes lots of good.

and it's almost Christmas, which I can't wait for !!!:-)





looks like you and I are going through the same thing right now, I had no idea, sweetie. We should have a divorce party!! :)

went to a friends this morning for a Twilight themed coffee morning!  We drank virgin bloody marys and did a little quiz.

Then I had music lesson and went Christmas present shopping after.  The toy shop didn't have what I wanted though so I need to go again tomorrow to Toys R US  >:(

What a great idea.  I should think up a themed breakfast.

don't ask, I don't know.  It's just that I've had a soundclick account that no one has said anything in from day one, and a youtube that only One person who said hi to me.  I got a thread here I've been talking to myself in forever now.  I don't seem to be very happy with ASCAP.  I can no longer listen to the good stuff that use to be on  Gray's Midi Page.  Last I checked, the same not so great midi's were there.  Hey! I'm hard of hearing and the less words to make things sound crappy, the better I can enjoy the music. 

I guess if my soundclick and youtube accounts bother me I can just cancel and put my stuff in my myspace page.

  I sh*t you not. This happened last weekend...

  There came a knock at the door, which is unusual but hardly unheard of.  Solicitors, or the friendly people reminding me that I forgot to pay a bill, or something like that.  I sometimes travel to see my friends, and none of them enter unannounced, so it could have been that.  Not likely, though...

  Anyway, I answered the door and there are these two women there.  One of them appears to be holding a Bible, but I can't tell because her hand is covering the title...

  At this point, I look a wreck; I slept from six to noon, that day, and didn't bother putting myself together yet, as I was waiting on some laundry before heading out to San Francisco.  My hair is mussed, and I hadn't shaved for about three days.  I'm not at all taken aback by the look on one of their faces; they think they've unduly disturbed me...

"Oh, I'm sorry," says one. "We're looking for hispanics..."

"People who speak Spanish..." the other adds.

(This is about the last thing I expect to hear from anyone knocking at my door.) "Um," I manage to say. "That's not me..."

"Do you know where any are?"

"Downstairs," I suggest...

"Immediately downstairs..?"

"I think so. .But I don't pay much attention to my neighbors. This building has seen a lot of turnover..."

"Okay," says the first. "We'll go see..."

And they left...

What the hell..?  ???

I performed that and miraculously did not lose any files, got my system back, just went to Fry's and bought Norton 360 all in one security for $59.99 and if I mail in the 2 rebates I'll get $60 back  :)  anyways, my system is up and running better than before and hopefully protected much better. I need a nap now but plan on catching up later this tonight. have a great weekend people.

Oh you are in for it.  Did you pay him upfront?  I hope not.  Sig is doing a lot of stuff on my house and his, I am lucky in that regard.  He doesn't trust anyone anymore to do the right thing.  It is a sad situation.



Unfortunately, Carlos did pay him already. We are trying to figure out what we can do-file a complaint with the BBB as well as other places.

Is there such a thing as the small claims court here?  In the UK you could take this guy to court yourself to get the money back.

That thought has crossed our mind. Of course we have only a month to pursue the matter because we are leaving for two months in Jan.

The radio station I listen to had a contest for needy families, so I wrote them about Tim's sister and her 3 daughters and she was one of the winners picked for $1,000 dollars, Tomorrow we are going to the station to be on air and receive the money. :)

While I was on the bus today, I noticed the driver kept hitting the brakes hard and it was hard to hold on. Then it happened, the bus hit the brakes had (for no reason, he's just an idiot) and this elderly man with a cane fell down and slid all the way to the front of the bus ( he slid about 15 feet). The driver stops but does NOTHING! All the passengers at the front do NOTHING (except scream)

So I run from half way back from the end of the bus and get to the old man. He's screaming in pain. I try and talk to him. I pick up his cane, his little cart ( they ended up on top of him). He keeps screaming. I ask him if he wants me to phone an ambulance and other related questions. I try and help him up...meanwhile. NO ONE ON THE BUS DOES ANYTHING. Not even the driver.

The old man just wants to get up and get off the bus. He yells at the driver. (the driver still hasn't moved, that "deer in the headlights" look). I advise this man that we should call an ambulance ( He's hurt, dizzy, in pain, but not bleeding) to just make sure everything is OK. I help him stand up, he still wants to leave. I told him once he gets off the bus, really can't help him much.

I was the only guy who helped him until I had to ask the driver to help him stand up. So as this guy gets off the bus. Finally, finally the driver says a "I'm sorry". I just look at him and throw my arms in the air. He probably thought I was gonna yell at him or beat him (I am about 5 foot 11, 200 pounds, so I'm not small) and he just looked away, let the man get off and went on. When I eventually got off the bus, I got off at the front. AS I got off, the driver let out a big sigh.

I am pretty upset at this driver. I have written his bus# down and the time & will phone our transit system. But also none of the passengers did anything either.
I should smite them all!

I don't know why no one helped. People were too shocked? scared? Don't want to get involved? At first I thought he might have been unconscious ( he banged his head hard right by the ticket machine). But he was walking OK, I'm sure he'll have stiffness tomorrow, or tonight.

She did what needed to be done, then she started racing around the yard like the devil was in hot pursuit! So she is zipping back and forth, back and forth - snow is flying everywhere! As I am watching her, I start to laugh out loud, which startled her, which then made her skid and go flying ass over tea kettle! OMG!!

Poor Daisy went down head first, arse up in the air, then all I heard was the deep thump when her backside hit the ground! Mahaha!

Find it and hit call. I hear the phone ring and watch the waitress who's been ignoring me answer.
I ask for a manager and she says she's in charge. 

You shoulda seen her face when I asked to turn around and look at the booth by the hostess stand.  ;D

she pretty much offered me the whole menu for free. But I'm time crunched. I wanted breakfast but decided she should give me pie.

Christmas Story: Boise boy licks pole, gets stuck

BOISE, Idaho — It's become an annual winter tale: A young boy gets his tongue stuck to a metal pole, perhaps as the result of a dare. This year, the scene straight out of the movie "A Christmas Story" unfolded Tuesday morning in Boise with a boy of about 10. Boise firefighters used a glass of warm water to free the unidentified boy from the metal fence pole.

Fire Capt. Bill Tinsley says the boy's tongue was bleeding a little, but he was OK and allowed to continue walking to school. Firefighters estimate the boy was 10 years old.

Rescue workers responded after a woman driving by saw the boy and called 911.

Last year, the unlucky boy was a 10-year-old from Hammond, Ind., especially apt, since the 1983 movie is set in a fictional city based on Hammond.

You got it. Denny's is know for discriminating. There have been many lawsuits against them. I was trying to find a link for you to read about it but there are so many, I'm not too sure which one to pick. Just Google Denny's + Racial and all sorts of sites pop up. Then they made a commercial saying that they support diversity and such. Yeah, right! Like I said, we don't do Denny's-which is a shame because I do like their Moons over My Hammy.  ;) :D ;D ;D

Denny's - we used to go all the time when we were in Texas. Never had a problem. And of course I don't mean just me because I appear Caucasian - I have gone many times with several of my Hispanic friends, my Korean friends and my own Son who is Bi-Racial. Never encountered a problem.

They just opened Denny's up here and so we haven't been yet. But perhaps it might be different around Military Posts? Or it is certain areas that reflect this type of Racism?  ??? ::)

My mom worked as a District Manager for Dennys in Ca for over 20 years so this is not my experience with the chain. I really think it depends what part of the country you are in, who you hire and if you are a franchise or a company store because the standards are different in franchises.... this particular Dennys I visited was a franchise but- being a veteran of the company - I assisted my mom a lot in her work... I knew  right away that it was a franchise...and I was pretty sure when I saw how frantic the woman was I figured she'd forget I was there because she didn't seat me.

Ours wasn't racial, either...it was a case of the waiter being to busy hitting on the waitress to care about the customers.

A friend of mine(white) was a waitress at Dennys.  She was appalled, the basically came right out and told her to do what it took to "discourage" black people from eating there.

When we were in Lake Placid at Thanksgiving there was a Can-Am ice hockey tournament going on.  I overheard some Canadian kids saying how much fun they were having saying things like "Damn, I'd better call my nieghbour I think mum left the heating on.  I don't want our igloo to melt away"  Or asking what a TV was, etc, to wind-up the Americans!

It's a pain when our igloos melt, it takes a few days to rebuild one.
Someone sent us an instructional video on how to build them quicker, but we don't have any VCRs yet. Once some guy stole one from the big powerful USA..but we had nothing to plug it in to. dang the luck.

My new laptop runs windows 7 and I have used the wireless and the modem. After the first set of updates, your modem should be good to go.
But yea, that means you have to download the executable file in order to update the modem drives... sucks

I usually go into James's school on Wednesdays for the workgroup.  Yesterday was a snowday so I went in today instead.  Finally managed to finish a project we've been working on for a couple of months!

Then I went to the post office and sent most of my cards (though we thought of yet more people late last night so we need to print out more letters) and some parcels.  Still need to go back because I forgot one gift and still haven't bought my secret santa things.  I do like this office (local one rather than the big one in town).  They let me pick up boxes/bubble wrappers etc and potter around packing and addressing envelopes and then pay for it all in one go.  Usually they check if I need customs forms before I get to the desk.  Lovely ladies.

Housework, shopping and music lesson will occupy the rest of the day.  Mother-in-law arrives late tomorrow.

What can I make with cooked chicken to use up the last of the left-overs?  :-\\

Last weekend we went to visit Himself's sister to do the christmas present run. Her baby is due on the 30th so we thought we'd better get in there early! I don't see her lasting until then........
Himself is convinced it will be born on christmas day and must therefore be called Jesus whether it is a boy or girl!  ;D

This weekend is delivering pressies to Himself's parents and my sister in Margate. Not looking forward to that really, issues with the sister which I fear may come to a head............

Not doing too much around here today.

This snow storm is pretty bad - at least for those who have to go out in it. No school day, so The Son and I went out earlier and shoveled - get a jump on it instead of waiting and having to tackle it all at once. So far we have received 4 inches on Post with snow drifts at 3 feet. :o The dog has been enjoying herself immensely! So I am staying in and staying warm. I have changed the sheets on the bed, done 2 loads of laundry - to include my outer shell f my winter jacket. Remember folks - a white winter jacket is not necessarily the best idea! Haha!

Going to play some Mario wii - I should finish it today. I am waiting to battle Bowser but I have to go back and get all of the star coins I have missed along the way. Then I will open up another level after I beat Bowser's butt! 8)

You should let him watch sports AND go out with the guys, while you take care of the kids

If he likes sports, get him a sports DVD, or other types of DVD (movies) if he doesn't like sports.
For out 10th year, I think wife knitted me a sweater or made me some clothes, with out initials sowed in ( on the inside). Quite nice.

At Scouts we are packing military care packages (shampoo, candy, writing paper, gloves etc.) and writing them letters.  We wrote Christmas cards for service members/veterans or family in his Den meeting on Monday.

Not be around as much after this.  Dai's mum is with us until early January.

Our financial adviser/friend had his annual "Thank You" brunch for all his clients. There are so many of them that he always has two waves-from 10-12:00 & 12:30-2:00. We always go to the later one. Good eats and plenty of mimosa. Had about 4 or 5 glasses.  :o :o :o One of our poker buddies was there. We haven't seen him in a LONG time but it was great catching up with him. He usually opts for the early wave so we were surprised to see him. On the way home, it was raining-then turned into mixed rain & snow. Everything was wet and all of a sudden everything was white. It was just really weird how we turned a corner and there was about an inch or so of snow-when there wasn't anything just a few feet prior. We were on the highway about 5 miles from home when traffic stopped. Emergency vehicles were removing cars that collided. Hopefully no one was hurt. The cars didn't appear too badly damaged so hopefully, it wasn't bad. We decided to get off the highway and inch our way home as the snow was getting deeper and deeper. We are now home, safe & sound and can enjoy the snow as it is meant to be enjoyed-from the living room window.

I think that December is going to be a turn around month for me. So much has happened this past year.
I have tried to keep a blog of the year, but that didn't turn out to be so good for me. I have it linked to this account, you can click the WWW under my name or I will link to it if you want to read. I have decided though that I am going to do away with it - in the respect of it being a journal. I have come to realize that some of my more inner thoughts just shouldn't be read by everyone and anyone - and so by the end of this month I will have edited out quite a few posts. Of course, a dear friend told me that I need to keep the posts that I am editing out, so I will do that as well. I think what I am going to do is get myself a really good journal - and sit down and write the old fashioned way. ;)

I am also not too sure how much I will be around this month either. I will be here to do the avatar contest, but aside from that I can't guarantee. Big Nasty should be home at some point this month, so that is a bonus. Other than that I hope everyone has a blessed holiday season.

Last chance!
I am editing it all tomorrow!
And then I shall be out for a while, but of course I will check in and make sure the Avatar contest is looked after! 8)

Reminds me of the good old days with Timmy, he played the clarinet from 3rd grade through 12th grade, he also played the bass guitar in Jazz band and the bass drum in Winter percussion.
Enjoy these times, now that he is in college I miss going to the concerts.

Went back to mediation yesterday, they decided that we get the baby every other week when Tim gets paid and that Dan & Missy will work out the holiday and summer schedule.The judge still wants them to come back to court next Tuesday, the mediator thinks it is because they are young. I'm glad most of this happened before Missy's 18th birthday, because we were allowed to go in and participate. The lady told Missy that this isn't your parents child it's yours, it's nice your parents are there for you, but that she needs to make his appointments and spend more time with him. Tim & I don't think it even sunk in. :-\\

All these old people know how to do is complain and gripe,I had a situation this morning where this guy was trying to find a wagon and he says to me "Where are all the wagons",It says retrieve but you keep bringing them back and I told him "That's my job,I'm sorry" so he threatened to wanted to talk to my boss about it,I think the old guy was bluffing,he can't threaten me,I'm just doing my job the way I'm supposed to do it,That's all,I don't want any problems.


you're not explaining this properly howard...

you lost me at  "it says retrieve but you keep bringing them back"

If the guy can't find a cart he has a right to be upset, if you don't have any carts to retrieve because they are all being used inside the store then you have done nothing wrong... but


be careful because as a customer, even if he is wrong, he has every right to complain to your boss so always try to civil when dealing with an irate customer

Had to go up north for an eye appointment today. I'm sure some of you know that I am applying for SSDI (Social Security Disability) and they need an up-to-date visual fields because the last one was done in 2006. Considering the fact that the last one determined that I am legally blind, I really don't understand what another could determined-the fact that my vision is getting worse & worse? A DUH!!! I could tell them that. And that is exactly what it showed. At least I didn't have to do any of the other tests-including having my eyes dilated. I REALLY HATE that. So, the appointment took about a half hour-and it was about 2 and a half hour drive ONE WAY to get to the place.


On the way home, we stopped at a Thai restaurant. Since it was an off hour, we were the only ones in the place-and man! Was it COLD!!!! The woman (who I don't think even reached 5 ft) turned the heat on. She said that it is very expensive to heat the place and she usually turns the heat on around 5 when people start coming in. She brought us a portable electric heater & some hot tea. Food was YUMMY and after we were done, she brought us some dessert we didn't order. She put it down on our table and said it was on the house.  :o :o :o  It was YUMMY and besides the fact that we had a little trouble understanding her (her accent was SOOOO thick) you couldn't beat the service we got. We paid on our way out and before we left, she threw up her arms and almost yelled, "HAPPY HOLIDAYS!" It was so funny. Definitely a restaurant we will go back to.

Crappy day so far

I got a call from Sarah's teacher today saying he was worried because she has had a nasty cough for 5 or 6 weeks.  She hasn't.  She had a cold last week and it has turned into a sinus infection.  The cough really started Saturday.  Where in the hell he is getting the five or six weeks I have no clue.  I ended up begging the doctor to let me pay friday (payday, I have $3 dollars to my name and no insurance so I had planned to take her then) and I borrowed $20 from my mom for medicine.  I think what made me angry was the teachers judgemental tone about it all.  The doctor even said it was the very beginning of an infection...no way it has been that long. 

Now I am just going to sit here and wait for the visit from Dept of Child Services because I am such a neglectful mother.  ::)

that does suck! I can relate to the money issue.... I took time off from work to go to AZ for Christmas. I should have left yesterday but the reimbursement check for my travel to class last month has not come. Its nearly $1000 and since I only have $47 in the bank right now and an automatic withdrawl of 140 for a bill coming really soon I sort of need the check right now... plus that's my gas money and my xmas money...

the stupid check should have been direct deposited two weeks ago. I called today to find out where it was they said they cut it this morning and were sending it to my work.. (apparently our accountants payable person in the dept set my pay up for direct deposit but not reimbursements) I asked them to hold at the accounting office... if they do this properly I can get my check by 3pm wednesday. If they screw up my check will be at the police dept on Thursday...either way it has totally shortened the amount of time I get to spend with my family and I only see them twice a year.... if I'm lucky!  >:( >:(

I'm sure she doesn't have H1N1, but a school heard a cough and they go into panic mode and think H1N1 epidemic.  Fudge to the teacher for exagerating.

During the time of SARS, my wife had a cold. Because she's Chinese, hard to find a doctor who's even look at her. People freak out too easily, and good thing you had a good doc.

I wasn't hiding them,I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do every single day that I am there,I go from lot to lot gathering up about 9-10 wagons then bringing them to the front store for the customers,the customers want the wagons to stay there in the parking lot but if they do,it becomes chaos and all the wagons are in complete disarray,wagons over here,wagons over there,then you have cars running into them and that's why most of the wagons are crushed and busted up,that's not my fault,Our job is to bring them back but then the people complain anyway,you can't have your way,unfortunately.  :(

Some people, like that man, are just not happy no matter what you do.  Don't let it get to you, as long as you are doing your job you will be fine.

Some good news-the electrician is here. He knows how to hook up the dishwasher and that is what he is doing-so we are going to have a full running kitchen! YAY!!! We do need to do some damage control. Yes, the entire peninsula needs to be redone but Carlos figured out how do a bit better job than this jerk did. But, it does look like we will be sleeping in our own bed tonight-and we can start putting things away so our place won't look like some of those house do on the show Hoarders.

However, this work is going to have to wait until this weekend because we are going up north for a few days to celebrate Christmas with the kids. There are going to be 12 of us (4 are kids-one is an infant + 8 adults but one is pregnant woman) and only ONE bathroom!  :o :o :o It should be very interesting. Like last Christmas, we will probably end up sleeping on the dinning room floor.  :o :o :o  This was part of the reason why we wanted to have Christmas here. But due to everyone's schedule, it didn't work out that way. It is just as well with our kitchen situation. Hopefully, next year we will have Christmas here.

Sorry to here about your Kitchen... At least it is functional now :-\\  I will be going through construction/destruction myself (a 3 rooms, 3 bathrooms, a stair well, and a kitchen :P)
Not sure if I am looking forward to this... We have some really great contractors/carpenters (but they are slightly on the aged side - I am a little worried about this size of project for them)....  I know the one personally, and he is a perfectionist!  But the time frame, I am just not positive how long this will be :P

At least you have the facilities.

For three months (November 2000-February 2001) when we were waiting for our new home to be finished, we lived in my grandmother's house (of course, on a temporary basis) and my parents and I had to share one bathroom. It worked out just fine though.

Well, still isn't functional. The electrician couldn't get the dishwasher running. He is going to come back on Saturday to try to get it to work. Yes, he is coming back on a weekend. Someone who works on the weekends-what an amazing concept. We both thanked him profusely when he left. We were so grateful to deal with a professional and someone who knows what he is doing. He just laughed. He knows exactly how bad Jeremy is-and he saw the sh!tty work that he did on the peninsula.

Carlos has crashed for the night. The poor guy. He did a lot of work on the kitchen today. I should be heading off for bed myself.

I love all this talk of only 'one' bathroom. That is pretty much the standard in all but recently built houses in the U.K.

Going to the library Christmas Carol Service today. It always makes you feel very festive. It's in an old part of the library where tha accoustics are amazing.

well I finally made it to AZ.... Got here at 130 am....left at 330 pm  :-\\  took four hours to go 140 miles  >:(

I knew it was going to be busy but damn....

then AZ has all these photo enforcement trucks parked on the freeway... there were at least 10 of them the 140 mile drive from the state line to Mesa.... these trucks are parked on the side of the freeway and take pics of speeders. I've been caught before I wasn't going to let it happen again so I had to drive the speed limit the whole way... it takes much longer driving only 75. I think the speed limit should be raised to 80!  ;D  plus about 50 miles of construction that only allowed for 55 and 45 the whole way... my god I could almost walk faster than I drove!  I said almost!  :D

Standing up to abuse doesn't make you a rat.  This guy going into law enforcement is just scary, think of the damage you can(and will) do to perfectly innocent people just because he has a hard on to push people around.

And if you won't do it - I am sure there are many, many people who would gladly take your job and do it!

Furthermore, I don't see why you complain about not getting a promotion to inside - frankly, if you worked for me and called off on snow days, you would be lucky to still have that job the next day!

What Tam said.  Howard, it is your job to collect carts, no matter the weather.  If you want a promotion, you have to prove you are willing to do the job you are given, that includes collecting carts in the snow.  Now quit your bitching and go to work.

Anyone have a feeling if he get's a job inside.  He will be yelling about the people driving crazy, trashing carts, and have no respect for people ???  Along with the people who put food back in the wrong places, the annoying questions of where things are located, and heaven forbid squeezing the Charmin (I am envisioning Mr. Wimple about now).....

As far as I can tell, the thing he wants to be promoted to doing is cleaning the break room inside.  While that is nice, it is only a small part of a job, you have to show that you have initiative and can be depended on and get along with other workers such as the head of floral.  :-\\  You try to get everybody else (including managers) to clean out the garbage bin for you.

Perhaps it's time for you to find another line of work like another fast food/coffee place such as Au Bon Pain...

So far today I've been disappointed.  I wanted to do my video recording with somebody, but I guess things like the Wii are more important.  I use to know how to use the video camera years ago but forgot.  There's a lot of stuff on the computer I don't know how to do and can't figure out.  It takes me forever to learn anything and it seems like if I learn something I'll forget something else.  Think I'll go sing like a little kid some more.

Had a fabulous time with the kids for the past few days. We got to see granddaughter #1 preform in her school winter program. It was really cute. Afterwords, we went back to the house and lit the Hanukkah candles and then had dinner. Of course Carlos' ex & her husband were there, too.  ::)  Then they went home and we went to sleep-in the dinning.  :o :o :o  But, it was on an air mattress. Didn't sleep at all. We were so close to the heater that we thought it would be too hot so we turned the heat down REALLY low-too low because then we were freezing. Sometime in the middle of the night, we turned up the heat but not enough, I was STILL freezing-but not as much. Couldn't sleep at all. I FINALLY fell asleep about 6 a.m.

The next day was "Christmas." We told the kids that Santa tripped over us when he came in through the door. (We were sleeping right in front of the door.) I think the gifts we gave the kids were a hit. We gave granddaughter #1 the game of Life which she wanted to play. She really enjoyed it and stayed with the game until the end (LONG game and granddaughter #2 gave up after awhile-the difference between a 6 year old & a 5 year old.) We then had a pork roast-a HUGH pork roast-21 lbs  :o :o :o :o After dinner, we all watched the movie I made. They all loved it. Then my youngest step-daughter, her husband and granddaughter #4 left. We then got to sleep on the futon they slept on the night before-so we didn't sleep in the dinning room again.

Today, we just hung out until my step-daughter (who's house we were staying at) got home from work and then we took everyone (except my youngest step-daughter, her husband, & baby) out to dinner before coming home.

Had such a lovely time. Part of me didn't want to come home so soon. And there wasn't too much of a problem with having only one bathroom. The funniest part, (I thought) was the fact that everyone was calling Grandchild #5 (who is due in April) as "Baby Buddha."  ;D ;D ;D

Yeah, it was-oh I forgot to mention that we brought some pork home with us. One thing I forgot to mention, if anyone were to see Carlos' kids with all the grandkids, you wouldn't know which kid belonged to who because they all get attention from everyone. At the restaurant, Granddaughter #3 was being very fussy and Carlos' son (who is the uncle) took her and walked around with her, trying to calm her down. He is going to be a GREAT father (like his dad  ;) ), which he will be in just a few months.


BTW, it sounds like you had a great time, too.

When I was growing up we would often have those on Christmas Eve, often at my grandma's house. My mom, when she grew up, often had them at her grandmother's place, since she had several cousins. It was always nice to see the rest of the family. For me, that was mainly my great-aunts, my mom's cousins and their families. Now the members of my generation are all grown up.

Ok, I think it is official. I think I am coming down with something. I don't feel 100%. I started taking echinacea this morning which I should have started to take last night.

I still have some painting to do today. I don't want to put it off because I would really like sleep in my own bed tomorrow night. What an amazing concept. We haven't slept in our bed for about a month & a half now. Carlos is downstairs doing damage control (after he took more photos). The good news is, I HAVE A DISHWASHER!!!! YAY!!! So, once the painting is done, we are going to start moving things back in. We have to figure out what we want to do. I think we should find a lawyer. Carlos thinks we should file a claim in Small Claims court.

Anyway, for the newbies ;)  this is hubby's 3rd deployment. He has never been home on Christmas during any of them. As a matter of fact, his last deployment was '06-'08 so he missed 2 Christmas' in a row! :o That is why I am so excited about him coming home during this one!!!!!!

More info when I can actually put it out! 8)

I hope he does get to come home!!

Yeah, it's going to be yucky and rainy so I'll just hang around on here until I leave and return from the trip.  I'm thinking about my garden.  The only plant that doesnt look dead are my bottle brushes.  I have found one plant and put it in the right spot where it looks okay all yearhttp://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc153/rocksannwastaken/smilies%20sign%20and%20talk/wootsmileymu1.gif

Man,it was a bad day today,from the start of the morning,the supervisor wanted me to start work at 9 instead of 10 but I compromised with him and started work at 930 to get most of the carts from out the snow cause the plowpeople came today,pushing them was such a pain in the neck,It wasn't easy when you have all these mounds and piles of snow in the parking lot.

Then coming home I waited 2 hours for the bus cause there was a massive traffic jam and my feet were so frozen,it felt like they were about to fall off but I am glad to be home,nice warm and toasty.

Painting is done. Tomorrow night we are moving back into the bedroom. The smell of paint shouldn't be too bad by then. Then we get to put the kitchen back together and the rest of the house back to normal.

Very cold at work at the moment, it was 14 degrees at my desk when i got in this morning! I feel like Bob Crachitt in A Christmas Carol wrapped in layers of clothes and still freezing!

had to go into town at lunchtime and it was mental. People kept getting in my way!  >:( I have no patience with people at the moment. Walked back past The Indoor Market and there was a kidney laying in the road!!??! There are a LOT of butchers shops in there so I hope it was from one of them.........


First off, WHY was your desk so cold?  I am very mad at your work for making you cold!   

And second, a kidney?  Whose kidney?  That is honestly insane.  How did you even know it was a kidney?  I wouldn't recognize such a thing.  As one of my favorite people would say, "Holy Horrors!"  ;D

There is an 'issue' with the heating mostly to do with them not wanting to spend money to fix it when the building is going to be ripped apart in 3 years time! ::)
I have been told to only work here for 20 minutes at the time until I am issued with a fleece jacket, oh and they also gave me another themometer!  ;D

As to the kidney I have no clue. I'm hoping it was from one of the butcher's shops in the market so it would be a lamb or pig kidney. I only recognised it because ;
a. I watch too many medical dramas
b. My mother used to make steak and kidney pie so I have seen one when she bought it.

It was a truely bizarre and random sight.

Wow, things have been busy around here.  Gonna take me a while to catch up.  Hopefully I can over the holidays at the lake.  Tomorrow is Micah's birthday (20), so after I get off work, we'll head over to celebrate that w/ my parents and stay for Christmas.

I wish everyone safe and happy Christmas travels.


As if work hasn't been crazy enough (and it has), my only co-worker now goes back to 32 hrs a week.  My dad hasn't been doing well, but is doing better.  We lost ANOTHER of his siblings to cancer over the weekend (now it is just him and a sister out of 6, we lost his only brother 18 months ago to cancer).  Positive stuff:  Micah is doing well in college and I have a wonderful man in my life.  He is 46, an optometrist downstate, and treats us VERY well.  We've known each other since Aug (he remembers more about that than I do--I was in test administrator mode) but got serious at homecoming in October, so a little over 2 months.  He came up to take the Boards again in early Dec and ended up coming up earlier than planned, so instead of coming right to BR, he called from Grand Rapids and said he wanted to meet my family instead of going up and studying in a hotel room.  I hadn't even told anyone about him yet (wanted to make sure we were going to last) so I told them that night.  Not how I planned it, but it worked out.  They like him a lot.


I want to apologize in advance for any postwhoring activities I engage in over the holiday in wanting to respond to posts when I catch up.  But right now, I have to finish laundry and pack.

We are going on a cross country train trip in February, I made all the arrangements a month ago.  Luckily I didn't have much to do so I went over the itinerary and found that I had booked the train a week later than it was supposed to be.  :o  I was all in a dither, it is during school vacation and we need 2 sleepers, I was worried they may have been booked, but it was alright, I was able to change the reservation.  Now we won't get to San Francisco the day after the flight back home leaves.  ::)

Umm if the plow has no where to put the snow, how is this his fault.  And why would you call him names (stupid idiot plow guy), he is just trying to do his job. Trust me, plowing snow ain't easy.  If you prefer, he can leave it in the parking lot as it is, and I suppose you will have problems pushing carts, and cars will still have problems driving.  Come on it is not the plow's fault, his job is to push snow (well you have to push it somewhere). ::)

If the store would like to hire a bigger firm to plow, then they will have a loader and a dump truck to haul the snow away.  But that is going to cost the store some more money.  Perhaps they will have to get rid of a cartman to pay for it. ???

Quit blaming difficulties of your job on other people (the florist, the drivers, the cart users, the plow man, mother nature).  IT IS A JOB, it is called work for a reason!  It ain't easy and it ain't a vacation.  WE ALL DO IT!

Suffered and survived... We did not get a bunch of junk this year, so that was a plus (of course I bought the girl's gifts for Aunt and Grandmother).  Still Loose meat hamburger, green bean casserole (of course I am lactose intolerant- cream of anything soup REALLY Hurts),  mac and cheese - Velveeta shells and cheese that is (lactose), taco dip ( good - but cheese and sour cream on it - so lactose) potato chips and sour cream (lactose), and pepsi (coke drinker...) -- Oh yeah and dessert (pudding dessert with Chocolate pudding, cream cheese, and whipped cream - yep lactose).  SO I came home and am still hungry, and unfortunately the little that I did eat, is making my stomach hurt :P

Girls had a good time, we are now the proud owners of 4 princess dolls (none of them snow white, whom is the youngest one's favorite), 1 barbie, 1 new ds game, 2 jewelry boxes, 2 tiara ornaments, 2 books, 2 new outfits, and some cash.... 

Over all not bad, just HATE the food.  Actually it was pretty funny, hubby called his mom to ask her if she had peanut butter and jelly for our youngest (she hates hamburger and mac n cheese worse than me - and I do not make her eat that.  It is a fact, she hates it - and so do I.  Sweet potatoes she has to try, but mac and cheese and loose meat burger - NO.).  And she likes grandma's bake potatoes.
Grandma said  "yes, why". 
Hubby:"Well Bre does not like Loose meat or Mac n cheese, so we wanted to know if we needed to bring anything." 
Grandma - "she doesn't, how odd." 
Hubby "Nope she hates it worse than her mother." 
Grandma "Her mother hates Loose meat and Mac n Cheese?" "She's never said anything"
Hubby "Nope she doesn't, we never have it here."  "She has always ate it, and been polite." 
Grandma - "oh"

I wonder if the menu will change... I won't get my hopes up.

We did not get a bunch of junk this year, so that was a plus (of course I bought the girl's gifts for Aunt and Grandmother).  Still Loose meat hamburger, green bean casserole (of course I am lactose intolerant- cream of anything soup REALLY Hurts),  mac and cheese - Velveeta shells and cheese that is (lactose), taco dip ( good - but cheese and sour cream on it - so lactose) potato chips and sour cream (lactose), and pepsi (coke drinker...) -- Oh yeah and dessert (pudding dessert with Chocolate pudding, cream cheese, and whipped cream - yep lactose).  SO I came home and am still hungry, and unfortunately the little that I did eat, is making my stomach hurt :P

Girls had a good time, we are now the proud owners of 4 princess dolls (none of them snow white, whom is the youngest one's favorite), 1 barbie, 1 new ds game, 2 jewelry boxes, 2 tiara ornaments, 2 books, 2 new outfits, and some cash.... 

Over all not bad, just HATE the food.  Actually it was pretty funny, hubby called his mom to ask her if she had peanut butter and jelly for our youngest (she hates hamburger and mac n cheese worse than me - and I do not make her eat that.  It is a fact, she hates it - and so do I.  Sweet potatoes she has to try, but mac and cheese and loose meat burger - NO.).  And she likes grandma's bake potatoes.
Grandma said  "yes, why". 
Hubby:"Well Bre does not like Loose meat or Mac n cheese, so we wanted to know if we needed to bring anything." 
Grandma - "she doesn't, how odd." 
Hubby "Nope she hates it worse than her mother." 
Grandma "Her mother hates Loose meat and Mac n Cheese?" "She's never said anything"
Hubby "Nope she doesn't, we never have it here."  "She has always ate it, and been polite." 
Grandma - "oh"

I wonder if the menu will change... I won't get my hopes up.
family relationships sure do put us to the test.  I would have stopped for a burger on the way home  ;)  glad to see hubby be Straight Up and honest. let's hope Grandma remembers and maybe she will just get a spiral ham and some rolls or something  ;D  thanks for sharing your experience

Lol,  I wish!  But remember I live in the country and grandma only lives 3 miles away from us,take a gravel road to the stop sign.  Turn left on to gravel, 2nd house on the right....  No hamburger joint for atleast 20 miles as a crow flies.  Lol

As far as I can tell, the thing he wants to be promoted to doing is cleaning the break room inside.  While that is nice, it is only a small part of a job, you have to show that you have initiative and can be depended on and get along with other workers such as the head of floral.   :-\\  You try to get everybody else (including managers) to clean out the garbage bin for you.

Perhaps it's time for you to find another line of work like another fast food/coffee place such as Au Bon Pain...

I am sitting here, playing Mario Wii, patiently waiting for some news.

I know that hubby should definitely be home for Christmas, and I know some specifics - of course, that isn't something that can be put out all casually and stuff. I am very anxious though. And I wish I could just spill it and tell y'all exactly what is going on and when and how and where - but of course I can't! :\'( :D

I really don't know what to do with myself. I have tried to read a book, but my mind wanders. Playing Mario at least allows me to take out some of my frustration, but not much.

Anyway, for the newbies ;)  this is hubby's 3rd deployment. He has never been home on Christmas during any of them. As a matter of fact, his last deployment was '06-'08 so he missed 2 Christmas' in a row! :o That is why I am so excited about him coming home during this one!!!!!!

More info when I can actually put it out! 8)

Wow, things have been busy around here.  Gonna take me a while to catch up.  Hopefully I can over the holidays at the lake.  Tomorrow is Micah's birthday (20), so after I get off work, we'll head over to celebrate that w/ my parents and stay for Christmas.

I wish everyone safe and happy Christmas travels.


As if work hasn't been crazy enough (and it has), my only co-worker now goes back to 32 hrs a week.  My dad hasn't been doing well, but is doing better.  We lost ANOTHER of his siblings to cancer over the weekend (now it is just him and a sister out of 6, we lost his only brother 18 months ago to cancer).  Positive stuff:  Micah is doing well in college and I have a wonderful man in my life.  He is 46, an optometrist downstate, and treats us VERY well.  We've known each other since Aug (he remembers more about that than I do--I was in test administrator mode) but got serious at homecoming in October, so a little over 2 months.  He came up to take the Boards again in early Dec and ended up coming up earlier than planned, so instead of coming right to BR, he called from Grand Rapids and said he wanted to meet my family instead of going up and studying in a hotel room.  I hadn't even told anyone about him yet (wanted to make sure we were going to last) so I told them that night.  Not how I planned it, but it worked out.  They like him a lot.


I want to apologize in advance for any postwhoring activities I engage in over the holiday in wanting to respond to posts when I catch up.  But right now, I have to finish laundry and pack.


I think I need glasses think you can hook me up?  ;)


sorry about the loss of your aunt that had to be hard on your father especially so soon after losing his brother and probably in light of his own health status... glad to here he's doing better tho...


guess I should apologize for my post whoring today.... who am I kidding. everyone knows I'm a post whore!  ;D

How does one psyche themselves up to go to the in- laws....  this is my least favorite of all Christmas's, no tradition (except kids ripping open presents). The food even sucks, she acts like she puts on such a big thing to everyone (she makes us loose meat hamburger and mac'n'cheese from a box).  And the tv will be on in the background.  Someone make it better....

Glad to see you back, sorry you have to work.  But MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ME!


Thanks! I had a pretty good christmas. We celebrated on Monday.  but it was a lot of socializing. 
Had to meet my fathers friends on Friday
Had to go to party at my mom's friends house on Sat.
Mom had a party for her girlfriends on tuesday also had my dad's god daughter and her son (12) come over tuesday cuz her mom was flying in from VA and Monica lives in Tuscon- so then we had to entertain the mom and her son (19) along with Monica and her son...  geez some days I would've preferred to be back at my home where there's no one just so I could enjoy the peace and quiet and comfort basking in the warm glow of my television.

On the bright side Monica bought my parents a Wii (they played hers during a visit and decided they wanted Wii fit) so monica bought them a console and my mom is getting herself a fit...  I spent my last two days playing Wii sports! Which is good because my mom only watches crime investigation shows and TV judges you can only take so much murder and mayhem and yelling and screaming before it becomes completely depressing.  ::)

I did get my mom to watch the Closer with me. She kept saying I hate scripted dramas.  I said I watched 7 hours of The Buerau and Dateline and crap she said okay.... after it was over she said that was a good show I think I'd like to see more eps  ::)  (I've always known she would like it but I could never get her to watch it before.)



Long assed drive tho and the stupid traffic cameras in AZ make it impossible to make up any time... it took me 10 hours to get there cuz rush hour was so bad in LA and 8 hours to get home cuz I had to drive the speed limit most of the way.

I came home with some good food... too bad I couldn't find stupid tortillas so I could eat the thing I really wanted to eat!

We had some nice ham the night before and didn't do anything today, which is why I've been playing games here all day.  I don't feel like I want to go, It's going to get hectic like it always does until we finally leave and I get to find out again, ht many people I cant understand because I cant hear right. Which makes me upset that all I can really do is tag along with the family.  This makes me wonder if I'm ever going to get a life for myself.  Cool, stuff to think about in the car if I'm not asleep.

Soooooo happy!  Last night I drove into Manhattan and picked up my sister Molly and her boyfriend Frank- they are soooo cute!  I took them to dinner at SushiSamba (japanese/peruvian restaurant) and then we came home and they both crashed.

They have lots of sightseeing plans around town and it's great that they're here.


Stupid act of the day:  I got up early to tidy and instead of anti-pet-smell stuff I sprayed super-cleaner -with-bleach-in  all over the sofa.  It stinks!!!  Ugh.  Even the smelll of the anti-pet-smell stuff won't cover it. 

Numbskull.

Himself and I certainly know the meaning of team work! I managed to leave one of the rings on the gas hob on low, something I have never done before and Himself managed to throw the oven mitt onto it. Cue acrid smoke and flames and two hours scrubbing everything down after wards. ::)
Now we got to figure out if we can get new knobs to replace the two that got melted.  :-\\

Last night I was taken out for a "night on the town."  Burger King and then to watch The Chipmunk's movie. 

I agreed to go for fast food, as long as we could go to Burger King (I prefer it).  But my sandwich was ruined.  I opened up my pouch and there was mayonnaise all over on top of my burger, and then I open it up and they must have put a 1/2 cup of mayonnaise on it  8-P .  I like a little mayonnaise, but not lots (Burger King is the only burger joint that I eat burgers at - so I agreed that I would go for burgers as long as it was BK) - I was soo sad.  I have had my burger quota for the next 6 months (between BK and in-laws Christmas feast) 8-P

Chipmunks movie was cute, the girls enjoyed it.  They both wanted Blindside, and then changed their minds.  So I have yet to watch Blindside.

Haven't tried the Margaritta machine yet - no mixer....  Thinking about taking Christmas down

sorry about your burger Sami....yeah its always a good idea to ask for a little mayo or no mayo then get one of those packets and do it for yourself

So my Mum and brother got back from the hospital about 11pm last night. My Dad has had a small bleed at the back of his brain which has affected his eyes. They are hopeful this will get better over time as the bleed has stopped and was small.
His blood pressure is doing mad things so they are keeping him in for 3 or 4 days to try and get that stable and give him a whole bunch more tests and scans. So on the whole it's fairly positive news.

Today my brother has to go over to my parents house and get my Mum driving again. She hasn't driven for over 5 years and has only ever driven a shift stick car.

Himself is off to visit his best friend today, he was evacuated from his house on christmas eve because the houses in his street started collapsing! Turns out the built them on the site of a quarry and there were old tunnels underneth that have collapsed! It looks like Pauls house is going to be ok but 10 people are homeless and can't even rescue any possessions from their houses, it's too dangerous. :o

I am feeling very stoned right now. I took some NyQuil last night and it is still in my system. I didn't want to get up this morning but I finally managed to drag myself out of bed around 10:30-quarter to 11 or so. (I took the stuff around midnight.)

Here I thought it was just because of the Nyquil but then I realized my blood sugar was low. I used Carlos' testing kit-87.  :o :o :o I would say that is pretty low. Hopefully, the PB&J I just ate will bring that up. Now if only my finger will stop bleeding.  :D :D :D

My sister called on Sunday to inform me that my cousin Sandy who was 51 died unexpectedly. I was never very close to her (her mom married my uncle, when she was in her teens) but it was very upsetting news. :\'(

Had a little scare yesterday afternoon,Daniel was with Missy so I decided to go in my bedroom and lay down and watch some TV. I thought my nose was running so I grabbed a Kleenex to my shock I discovered my nose was bleeding. I went through a couple of tissues and got a washcloth. My mother in law came over to make sure I was OK. I had a sinus headache before & after it happened, so not sure if that had anything to do with it.

Went to fetch my Dad home from hospital this evening, he is looking SO much better, it's such a relief.
It turns out the glaucoma in his right eye has returned, very rare after laser treatment apparently, which he had 9 years ago. That was what was giving him the agonizing pain and they were able to relieve that and will treat it properly next week. We will find out next week what the rest of his treatment will be.

Himself is home tomorrow too, that is providing he gets here! We have more snow promised for tomorrow.

I think we've met the most people now!  And I hope we'll be able to arrange a UK meet when we move back (maybe Henk can come over as well?)

Who else lives near a really cool holiday (vacation) destination?  ;D

Went to my cousins calling hours last night,and came away with the sadness that I really didn't know her.She was not the long haired teenage girl I knew,but rather a short haired lady in her early 50's. Time is catching up to me and I hadn't seen her in over 25 years, so I wasn't prepared for who she became. How sad is that.

that's too bad :\'(

the guests are making me nuts.  not so much that they are annoying (cuz they are) but that I live alone and like everything a certain way and they keep moving my stuff.

I have never spent too much time with this generations' college student.  not easy for me.

I am feeling particularly bad for the fact that my sister (one of the guests...not Ceekay) is immature and overweight and uncivilized.  I think by 24 you understand how silverware works and stop throwing tantrums.  She has voiced her plan for the future that includes working at home at sleeping, avoiding exercise and eating cheese.    It's just unhealthy!

Going to our friends/financial adviser's place tonight. They didn't have their party last year and I am so glad they are having it again this year. Man, do they put on a spread. They usually have turkey, ham, beef, pork, shrimp, & who knows what else. They have one room devoted to nothing but deserts. Carlos avoids that room because his blood sugar goes up just being in it-and I gain about 20 lbs.  ;D ;D ;D  Tomorrow, I start my diet. lol.

I can understand that I just hate the regimentation  "Ooh the month is over- quick lock the thread"  like there'll be mass chaos if we don't
;D


the world will be gone.

1.. Video:  I thought it was cool!  I liked the whole cardboard cut out diorama style. 
2.  I get it.  lock the threads.  or else I'll post on them, which is  a waste of time.

snoz, she's SUCH a rebel...not locking the thread the second it turns a new month!  ;D

Tonight I was looking for some paper to write and found two Christmas cards I *thought* I'd sent out, one of which was Belle dujour's (the other of which was my aunt and her family).  I wonder if it's a major faux pa to send a Christmas card THIS late.  :-\\

It wouldn't have been until you announced it here!  If anyone had commented you could have just blamed the post.  One of ours I know was posted quite early in December just arrived inthe UK yesterday
