        I started my new job today.
        My boss handed me a fiver and said, "First things first, I need you to go down to the shops and buy me a glass hammer, a skirting board ladder and a bubble for a spirit level."
        I laughed and said, "Do you really think I'm that stupid?"
        "What do you mean Simon?" He sniggered.
        I said, "That lot is going to cost more than a fcking fiver."

        do you have the same issues?

          Mae everybody,Mick love the cow on the hood when I was a kid my mom was taking me to school and yep,cat was on the engine but we didn't know so it lost its tail,that was terrible! Work has been so incredibly slow I just don't get it,I've worked at that shop for 14 going on 15 years and I've never seen it like this,it's booth rent so I hafta pay even when it's slow so I'm basically paying to sit on my ass and read my phone..
          Much love to all and wishes for a happy AF Wednesday

            Greetings Abbers,

            Yep Mick, you guessed it - I went to check on the girls today. I actually met up with them at the Orthopedic office & didn't miss a thing. The surgeon decided no surgery was needed, yay! She got to pick out her own style of removable brace (polka dots), ha ha! The days of old fashioned hard casts are mostly gone. So she can go back to school tomorrow, everything is good & will be rechecked in 3 weeks. I am so grateful, believe me. She was a total trooper!!!!
            Glad Jeeves seems to be returning to his old self, LOL

            Pauly, is there a newer shop opening near by? Is it time to advertise a sale or something to draw people back in? Is there a possibility that one of the other girls there has been turning customers off? Just guessing here. I hope things pick up for you!

            Hello to PQ, Det & anyone else stopping by.

            It's chilly again so the fire is helping.
            Have a nice night one & all!

            Lav

              MAE ALL...

              Mick...you are such the jester! Spent the day doing the program coordinator's work as she is pretty stressed out over the craft sale. Oh well it'll be over soon. Have to spend time on my own work tomorrow in preparation for our Annual General Meeting. It's going to be a long day/night. Will also be working the craft sale Fri night and all day Sat. My raise better be a good one!

              Pauly...just what you need right before Christmas! Geeze! Hope things pick up soon, there's got to be some Xmas parties coming up so maybe people will be in to spruce up.

              Lav...you beat me. Glad to hear all is well with your grand daughter. She does sound like a trooper. We had a fairly decent day but colder temps and snow tomorrow morning. Then temps going up to positive double digits so we should have a great turn out at the sale.

              Det...hope your continuing in good spirits and all is well.

              Too pooped to cook so it's mac & cheese and hot dogs again. See you all on the flip side....:smile:PPQP

                Mick, thanks for keeping us rolling as always.

                Lav, a polka dot brace? awesome. no such thing when I was a kiddo.

                PPQ, hoping for a big raise.....

                Pauly, hang in there hon. It's about all I can manage all too often

                Work was unusually fun today.... we had a work pot luck lunch and I got voted 'chef' so I got to prep and
                cook at work.. how nifty. I roasted up some ham, turkey, cold cuts for sammiches and everyone brought a side.
                Mine was garlic/rosemary mashed potatoes with a criminal amount of real butter. oh my.... oink-a-roo.

                No cravings in sight, guard up...ready for any beast or demon.

                Only pulled an hour of over time today so actually have time to wind down properly tonight. yay.

                gnight loves

                      Re: w/c 12th

                      Good evening Abbers,

                      No one has broken any body parts so far today so it's been a good day, ha ha!!!

                      Mick, I need you to come over here & figure out how to keep my chickens from flying over their fence! I know I could clip their wings but I'd rather leave them with the ability to escape from a possible chicken-napping when they are out free ranging. In 13 years of raising these large Buff Orpingtons I have never had one able to fly over the fence at will. Orpington chicken - Wikipedia
                      I've had other smaller birds capable of flying, often found them on the roof of the chicken house.

                      Pauly, why are haircuts so cheap there? That's crazy!!! We pay double that, no kidding. Maybe offer free coffee & donuts with a haircut or something

                      Chilly here but it's going to be much colder & windier over the next few days. I'm staying inside, ha ha!
                      Hello to Det, PQ & the others.

                      Have a peaceful night everyone!

                        Re: w/c 12th

                        Pauly, before Martha Stewart became famous she baked killer pies. At one of the goings on (community), she was selling these luscious pies for $6.00. They weren't selling so she hiked up the price to $10.00 - sold them all.

                        So, advertise a Christmas/New Year's special for $10.00, with eggnog - such a nice round number.

                          MAE ALL...Just home from work now and I'm bushed. Soon heading to bed.

                          Mick...I should get a % of coworkers salary! Boss did thank me for helping out, he figured she was pretty stressed. Was a long day but a successful meeting with a good turn out. Glad Jeeves is feeling better. I didn't know brushes were daft.

                          Pauly...hope you were a little busier today.

                          Lav...we were supposed to get a skiff of snow this morning and turned into a whiteout! They say there's a chance of snow tomorrow, wonder what that means.

                          SK...good to see you.

                          Well that's about all I got left in me so will see you all in the morning....:smile:PPQP

                            mucho tired from another 11 hour day but boy will that help come pay day.

                            Pauly, I like Lav's idea of accommodating treats that are cheap but folks will remember and tell their friends. Speaking of which...
                            do you promote your biz on social media?

                            Mick, er... Warden Mick! glad the bunny line is holding. Still daydream about pets but I'm better off just taking pic's of animals when I can.

                            Weather here turned dreadful starting last night. Huge rains and winds with rumors of snow perhaps tomorrow. Thankfully it will be Friday.

                            PPQ, sounds like you're well ahead of me on the difficult weather front. Ice driving just freaks me out.

                            Better get my sore buttocks into bed....

                              mornin all a frostee day again today ...how are we all thoday...poets day the weekend is here..any plans folks?think Im off mental defecting this weekend...

                              so lets have a brew to start the day orf...here we go.

                              hiya det hows the biblical donkey today..(the weary ass)? hope you are better ..yep the pesky line holds ..no s k p s yet ...

                              ppqp ..oho clever eh? re the brushes ...the ball is returned..I didnt know snow came in little boats!!!!!ha ha thanks is nice a few bob more in the wage packet would have sweetened the deal....

                              hiya sk ...how are things with you today? hope all is well.

                              hi Lav ..brew time it is ...interesting about the Orpingtons ...black ones to hide the soot of London ..I reckon you could stop them flying out something attached to the fence that will blow in the wind that they cant work out ie helium balloons?

                              hi pauly hows you today? still minimal trade? a monthly /weekly ticket draw?dollar a ticket? you keep in touch over da weekend we are here!!!!

                              big hulloooo to everyone there..

                              They've had to cancel the panto 'Jack & the Beanstalk' this Christmas in Birmingham, Bristol, Oldham, Bradford, Burnley, Leicester, Luton and London.
                              Apparently the giant couldn't smell any Englishmen.

                              Can I just ask everyone a huge favour? Those of you who are planning to put Christmas lights in your gardens, please can you avoid anything red or blue and flashing? Every time I drive past, I think it's the cops and have a mild panic attack. I have to remove my foot from the accelerator, slam on the brakes, put my seat belt on, throw my phone on the floor, hide my bottle of whisky ,swallow my joint, and shove the gun under the seat. It's a major drama. I really appreciate your cooperation and understanding.

                                Mae everybody,Mick hope you can make it to detecting this weekend,seems like you haven't been in a couple of weeks? Funny joke about the Christmas lights will just have to go to work and keep track of my spending more(which I hate doing!) Vegas being such a transient city makes it hard cuz people are always moving away,plus the neighborhood of the shop has gotten worse,seen a guy sipping a small bottle of vodka at 8 am yesterday just hanging out by the cell phone store next door,loiterers in the parking lot who I think security is scared of,what I think I'm gonna do is get on Vistaprint and print me out some different business cards,give them to my regulars with my phone number on them so if I DO hafta go to another shop they can find me,Kell and I both said we kinda want to be in a different neighborhood anyways,will see what happens,mom probably isn't coming down which I hate to say is a huge relief(hate saying that out loud) it's just too soon,,too close to the time last year she and Jon were here I don't want a fricken flashback ya know? Anyways much love to all and wishes for a nice AF Friday
