Hmmmmm

The human race will always make me go hmmmmm.
That's a big fat hmmmmm right there.
What are we racing for?
Is there a prize at the end?

Kalen's friend Kendra, got a job! So that's one less worry for her.
Remember earlier I had said that she didn't have on, and I told her it would work out, It did, and it was a job she wanted! I'm very happy for her!
Kalen also got his appointments set up for E-town!
Guess we get to go play with Sheila, Sandra & Jamie!

The weekends go so fast for me.
I'm trying to cut my other job down to one day a week....either Saturday or Monday, because I have a lot I want to do, and I get tired. Then I either get nothing done, or it's a marathon everything!
I was there for 5 or 6 hours Saturday, and 5 today!
I really need to get it to one 8 hour shift! I don't even mind going on Holidays in the middle of the week, which is what I'll do on November 11th if I don't go anywhere!
I did say I'd be back Saturday, only because all the time for payroll wasn't in.

I did make one card today....I need to make 3 or 4 more for my aunt.
I have a few pictures in my head, just need to find the stuff to make them a reality.....hence, the craft room, getting revamped!

When I got to my other job this morning, one of the guys had a black eye....not just the eye, the whole side of his face.
I said,"Were you talking when you should've been listening?"
He said, "Actually Gail, not this time."
He'd gone to the pub Saturday night (Halloween).
He was sitting on a bar stool, talking to a girl, and out of nowhere this girl's brother sucker punched him.
He said he didn't see him coming, doesn't know if it was because he was talking to his sister; he was a rodeo clown, maybe he didn't like the costume; there's a lot of maybes there!
The victim said he wasn't drunk, I asked about the other guy, and he said, "Probably."

I'll never understand how people act, or what makes them act the way they do.
What was to be gained?
Just sent the guy to the hospital an hour away for a cat scan. He has a broken cheek bone and a concussion.
And he's damn mad.
Doesn't know what to do about it....what would you do about something like that?
Revenge really isn't sweet, and will just get you into trouble.

I got a headache just looking at him, cause man it looked like it hurt.
He told me he's started some fights where he deserved to be beat up, "but not this time."
Should've told him I had some really GOOD painkiller type tranquilizers.
THAT'S another story, and we're not going there now!

On Friday, the girls at work were discussing who was moving in.
As you know, I work at a Seniors lodge, and there's always a rush to get in at first snowfall!
They were talking about 1 gentleman in particular.
One of the girls said, "He won't be moving in."
Other girl," Why not?'
"Because he's getting married on November 11."
I'm like, "WHAT?!"
Seems he's marrying one of the girls that work there.
I said, "OMG, when did they even date? She works nights all the time?!"
Anyhoo, it's none of my business, but wow!
I told the girls they were doing it wrong, and one of them told me, "I like my wrong!"


Ta ta for now.

Fall Back!

I'm probably one of the few in the country....over 50, that wasn't affected by the extra hour sleep!
Can't do it, nada, not that I don't want to.....I just wake up early! If I can't go right back to sleep, I might as well get up! 5:55 am this morning.

I also started doing laundry when Ray got up (because he's fine with the extra hour!), and had no hot water.
He's mad. Why couldn't the thermo coupler on the hot water tank go yesterday? How come these things happen on Sunday. He says it accusingly, like it's my fault or something!
Told him it was Murphy's Law. He doesn't know what that is, so dropped it!
But this is our second one in 5 years!
He should be thankful though, casuse last year at this time we were replacing the water pump, and yes, it was a Sunday!

I've had a very productive day!
Made labels for Sheila. No, she didn't move, just a new address!
Made labels for the AVON catalogues, and printed off the invoices for AVON. It'll be in on Wednesday!
Helped Ray put a post in the back 40 for one of the gates to lean against, so it doesn't twist.
Just one thought always comes to mind when I do this: How come I'm the one that has to hold the post while he positions the bucket on the tractor over my head to push it in?
Remind me not to piss him off when he wants my help! hmmmmmm
Made a sour cream rhubarb pie, some shortbread cookies, cooked some bacon for B & T sandwiches, italian seseme bread (bread machine), roast, potatoes, fried cabbage.
Did 2 loads of laundry, after I got hot water!

Fed the cats, and took a picture of the wood shed, with more wood than it's ever seen in it's life!

And there's my snowblower, still out in the elements!
I'm not sure why the cement mixer is still in the way there either!
Ray said he still has about 5 trees down that he didn't get, but I guess we can get them in the Spring!


Now the dishes ( the pots) are soaking, and I'm too full for pie!
Guess I'll have it later.

Ta ta for now!
