Merry Christmas everyone.

I have the "all Christmas" radio station on to get into the mood. We just avoided a major freezing rain storm here earlier in the week - amazing how different life is when its 34 degrees out and not 31 degrees.

So now its just pouring down rain - ahh - Christmas in the Pacific Northwest.

Hi everyone! Just checking in for the day. Feeling a little blue today.....thank goodness I'm at work and can take my mind off things. Just read about Rocky....there's way too much sadness on PT lately. I've got to get up and shake off this mood. Oh Richard......where is that annoying guy??? I need a good strong drink. Laurie, I'm going to call you on Saturday....hopefully you will be home and not gallivanting around with rich men at country clubs.

Well the furnace repair person is here and he can fix it, I do not have to get a new one

Who would have ever thought I would be happy with an unexpected $600 repair bill...but it is better than the $2500 for a new heat pump!

So keep up the Irish coffee until the heat is turned back on!

Okay, Christmas shopping done (Sorry, but I borrowed the orc to help with the crowds, he's back at work now)

One God's Blessing (for those of you who aren't Spider Robinson fans, that's an Irish Coffee), and I'll join whoever is on the couch. Anyone mind if I put in the George C Scott Christmas Carol again?

One big AAARRGH to the idiots who think that the highway is a place to drive like they're in NASCAR.........My truck doesn't stop as quickly as your little Hyundai, I hope whoever you are you need to go change your shorts!

Hey LH, good idea using ORC for crowd control! I may have to borrow him! I heard him tossing the logs around outside. I like the George C. Scott version of A Christmas Carol. A double eggnog for me, please!

Could I just get a 7 up? My tummy is upset. I wonder if life will ever be "normal" again. I'm hoping God has a nice house picked out for me and will help me find it and get there. It will take a miracle to get me and the cats moved. But this is the season of miracles, eh?

Chicken that I am, I'm afraid to get off the Internet because then my phone line will be free for her to call and scream at me some more. My blood pressure and tummy just can't take any more today.

Richard, try starting with "Callahan's Cross Time Saloon"

You'll love Ralph Von Wau Wau

One 7-up for you .....

DONE!

One parting shot when you move out.....

Tell her this, and yes you can tell her I SAID IT..

"YOU CHEAP BIATCH, If you had fixed the sewer the electricians would NOT have turned your SCROOGE ARSE in to the city...IF that don't work give me her number.....

IT's all her fault not yours.....the city will condemn the property and she is out of the rent she would get had you stayed.

lol,

The thought of an Orc in the backseat of a pickup would caiuse some kind of a traffic incident...

If you are off the road for the rest of the day you get a LARGE OGB.....I read Time pressure (?) years ago.....I'll have to look back into that author. Thanks for the tip!

ETS, I always look at a repair bill as a donation to a college fund!

MOFF,
If you asked for PT Prayers you will probably get them!
