    Verrrrryyy late getting here - but at least on the left coast it is still Thursday.

    Karen, thanks for opening up the bar..............you know good help is hard to find.

    Which makes me think of Catland...........well, they won't realize what they have done until you are gone for a while..............whadda ya mean we need TWO people to do her job?????

    One door slams - another flings wide open - oh look - a good job in my future - what? with a raise in pay? Hmmm, why didn't I leave sooner???

    Thanks for the drink Catland, how about my buying you one.

    Let's celebrate Ally arriving on U.S. soil - to loving Pet Talker's who have talked sweetly to her - and already rubbed off all of her fur while petting her.

    Four years plus one week - and here we all are - isn't it grand?

    Gotta go check out these birdies now - I haven't had much PT time lately.

    xxoo to you all.

    Catland, very sorry for your prediacament. I hope you can find another job soon. And that round of drinks was very nice, indeed.

    9/3/13
    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Duke and Gini, round of drinks - DONE.

    (and thanks for the one back Gini ).

    yes Gini, I do see this as an opportunity - Its a little scary, but fortunately we're not the types to live beyond our means so we can hunker down for a while and do ok.

    Now here's what is really funny. My last couple of months were really stressful because I converted to a new payroll system with a new vendor. It was a very big undertaking and I wasn't 100% done yet. All I wanted was a part time person to help manage things. They weren't even smart enough to allow me to train an assistant before canning me. Who wants to work for idiots like that anyway?

    Its early, but I'll fire up some coffee and get some breakfast cooking. Hey, its not like I've got anything better to do at the moment

    These are not the droids you were looking for

    What about some Maryland Beaten Biscuits to go with the coffee? We can all take turns whacking the dough with the mallet and don't even have to tell who we are whacking in our minds. Is that where the expression "whacked out" came from Good morning everyone ~ yawn

    Welcome Back Richard!

    Catland -- sorry to hear that you got canned, some companies are just too stupid to waste time working for. My mom got the 'golden handshake' because she was supliferous to needs - yet they still call her even now (2 years later) to ask stupid questions about things she did in her job, and she keeps telling them where to go (in the politest of terms of course! )


    Can I get an order of Scotch, strictly for medicinal reasons of course! It helps keep the germs at bay, and i'm just at the tail end of this nasty cold/flu i've had for 2 weeks

    Julie: So sorry to hear about the job but everything happens for a reason. There's something out there for you that is more fulfilling, less stressful and actual pays you what you are worth. Keep us posted, OK??
    Its a little scary, but fortunately we're not the types to live beyond our means so we can hunker down for a while and do ok.
    So does mean no more buying wine-coloured pants??? Sorry, couldn't resist...

    Good morning everyone! Would love to say it's a sunny day but au contrair (sp?).....dark, windy and rainy. A round of drinks for house on my tab please Richard. Good news about Ally!

    Hey Twisted Sister!!!!! **waves**

    I'll check back with you all later.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Reminds me of the time I had to disturb a client on vacation to e-mail them some documents for a real estate matter we were handling. I know I shouldn't laugh, but they didn't know that you can get e-mail elsewhere even if your computer at home is turned off. I was gentle in explaining the wonders of the Internet to them

    Just a cuppa Joe for me right now - I'm at work and they expect me to do stuff!

    Everyone seems a bit down today. So, I hope Willie doesn't mind, I thought I'd post a couple of my favorite Mario pictures to make you all grin. He's into the blueberries of course!!!

    I watched the movie Night at the Museum yesterday. That monkey Dexter, is a Mario for sure!!!
