Good morning all,
Well it's a paycheck for a few weeks here in Victorville and yes there is nothing to do but work and sleep. I have never seen so many bars and liquor stores in one town so that tells me more about this place. I went to bed early last night and up before dawn -YIPEEE
Still waiting for my project to arrive so bring on the coffee and glad I have at least tv and my iPad with books and netflix.
Hope all have a great day.

HI all,
Cold 23F here and it is depressing. bleh
My mother taught me most of the "etiquette" things..but no dancing with boys..went to Catholic grade school and we couldn't cross THE LINE to the side of the play ground where the boys were..they had cooties or something...and the nuns would flip out...nuns were nuts ....yet another long story.
Meeting committee folks to shop for yet another funeral meal this Saturday.
Hope to get thyroid test results by tomorrow..will call doc if I dont hear from him. I am not one to sit and wait for them to call me...and if there is an issue I want to explore diet changes first..I just hate taking meds and am taking way too many now..boohissssssss

Morning All!!!

Just got paid...and the money is GONE. But at least the bills are paid. There is food in the fridge. Have enough to put gas in the car. Guess I shouldn't complain...but still, damn.

Nora - Adina's therapist wants her to see a psychiatrist just to get meds and be monitored. The meds she is on came from our GP...so she's not exactly an expert on the mental health meds. WHN should only have to see the phsychiatrist once in a while for a meds update. I am still working on it...

My mom always drilled it into our head that you WRITE a thank you note for everything! She still does it to this day....even if she just comes to MY house for dinner I get a thank you note in the mail! I have tried to instill that into my child too, but I have probably slacked in that area.

Whats up with Bri wearing makeup to work? Is she trying to impress one of the tenants? Hopefully there won't be any more threesome jealousy brawls involving her. Although that was quite entertaining. I do miss my Tori (my version of Bri)...she kept life interesting, that was for sure! LOL

Does anyone watch Mad Men? It's my latest Netflix show. It's pretty good but Don Draper annoys me a lot. There is a member of MWO on the Mods thread that says he is exactly like Don Draper and I'm thinking that's something I wouldn't announce. LOL

Anywhoo...it's Thursday...my boss will be gone from 1-5pm today. I've had a lot more patience with her lately, she's not SO bad. I'm trying to revamp my whole attitude. We'll see how long this lasts.

Love y'all lots and lots!!! :h:h

p.s. Mama - I love smoking too. But I had to be honest with myself and realize I was up to 9 cigs per day! Like with drinking, I cannot moderate. LOL It's all or nothing for me.

I liked Mad Men. Don Draper is a pig, but he is HAWT!!!
just back from lunch...I actually went somewhere and sat down for an hour...had stuffed flounder....YUM
FT....... I do that too....I am so tired when I get home that I go to bed early and am up before a sparrow's fart....
My mom drilled the thank you note thing in too...and I agree with her. I think my children are the only ones in the state that write them. And I am NOT Super Mom.....I am too scared of my mother not receiving one that I fuss at them until they do it!!
K9....I get paid tomorrow and mine is gone.....there's a new thing on FB that says.......I don't live paycheck to paycheck. I live paycheck to 4 days before pay day!!
Back to work!

Yes, mama enjoy. Will it be a four day weekend?

Liz I tried three times to post a bunch of jokes for u yesterday and completely failed! :upset:

So here's the one I remember best: So this Blonde walks into a bar and says...'ouch' uch:
Hope this isn't too late. :l

K9 I got an ISFAHAN notice today because I didn't deposit my checks...100.00 in over draft fees- Fricken banks...no better than Vinnie the Fence...or is that Guido Mama? :H

Pauly, Allswell, Dottie et al...tired and sad tonight. Not sure why. Miss my girl friends I think...Madison got asked by Bella again if she believed in God and when she said no, Bella said she was going to hell....sigh...

Love u all

Hi Gang,
Well boredom set in big time tonight, temptation was creeping in to "just have one" but here I am and I didn't. Did some meditation and relaxation work, watched some TV read my book and now heading to bed and read some more and probably fall asleep.
Yup giving myself a pat on the back and very glad that i didn't indulge.
Good night Peeps.

FT - GREAT JOB!!! Hey are you going to be there all weekend? Are you up for company if I can work it out? I would love to meet you. Let me know. I totally understand if you aren't into it. Some people prefer anonymous. You will not hurt my feelings at all. I'm not even sure that I can make it but will try to work it out if you would like to meet an old lady.

That would be cool if you two could meet.
No 4 day weekend for me. Off today, work Saturday, off Sunday, then back at it Monday. Kind of f'd up.
FT - that's awesome that you didn't indulge. Being away from home and accountable to no one woould be problematic for me.
Kradle - I am assuming you mean an insufficient funds notice. I hate that. I can send my Guido (hubs) if you need him.
It's 30 degrees here, so I am in sweats and have a fuzzy scarf around my neck.
Really enjoying not having to race out the door. I ABHORE that.
