Re: w/c26th

Mae everybody,yep Mick you may be mad hope you find something awesome to make it worth it,just thought of Sam cuz we haven't seen him in awhile and he just popped in my head,talked to the girls at work yesterday and the "manager" is definitely giving up that job she just graduated and wants to work for the government and only work at the shop a few days a week,think the owner will shit when he hears that,then two others want to leave so yep it's up in the air still,oh well as I always liked the saying"I was looking for a job when I found this one I'll find another" put up Christmas decs last night,tree is bought but still in the garage,gonna enjoy the season no matter what,who or when! Much love to all my friends here who keep me grounded I appreciate you all! Wishes for a nice AF Sunday

Re: w/c26th

MAE ALL...

Mick...you are definitely mad! Stay warm out there and good luck with the hunting.

Pauly...talk about organized. Presents wrapped, dec's up, tree bought! I am impressed. I'm also impressed with your attitude, very positive. Whatever happens at work will happen but you can decide how to spend Christmas. Hope you have a great Sunday.

Off to start some of my chores I've been ignoring. Have a good one all.....:smile:PPQP

Re: w/c26th

Good evening Abbers,

Yes Mick - yes you are!!!!!
I hope you day turned out well

Pauly, maybe someone should make the owner an offer on the shop then you could have a 'new' place to work in without ever making a move
I just had a chat with Sam on FB a few days ago. He's good, busy but good.

Det, so glad to see you & hear that you are OK :hug:

PQ, I think Pauly has us all beta as far as holiday preparations, ha ha! I do have a few gifts purchased & tossed into a closet, that's about it so far, Lol!

My chicken who went missing two weeks ago made an appearance this morning, believe it or not. I was shocked to see her in good shape! I put her back in with the other chickens & she escaped again before dark - I can't cope with her, ha ha!!! A chicken with her own plan

Hello to everyone & wishing a peaceful night for all!

Re: w/c26th

Hi Guys. Finally managed to log in! You looking for Christmas gifts on your diggings Mick? I gather its very cold in the UK at the moment
But cold will be the norm for you PQ. Stay warm.
Det - yes holidays will be tough - try and think of something different to distract yourself. Or pretend you are a guest member of another faith or nationality for that day. Hey, we dont celebrate Thanksgiving here in NZ - and you are practically an Australian.Nothing religious about taking on that identity.
Pauly - you do sen organized. My daughter comes home from Norway just 3 days before Christmas - so just as long as I have the tree up by then. I really am looking forward to spoiling her. And having a hug.
Lav - I bet you will be busy with the countdown to Christmas as well.
Well I have work for 2018! Its a professional job but only for one year and its in another city (via flight not driving) - so I have to live elsewhere but will come home on some weekends and Mr G will come to stay with me when he can. Its a research/writing position and I am almost my own boss - will be very busy but it will be interesting. Pay is about 60% less than the job I lost but its still good. I am really thrilled although lots to do before I take this up in March next year.
So thats the news.
I have had some thoughts about drinking now and again - but they are only thoughts and they pass. In this case its the sense of wanting to go 'yipee' and the sunny weather that brings back delusional memories of gin and tonics. Haha, it doesn't take me long to have a reality check. Just being viligent. Well done, Det on not drinking through the Thanksgiving weekend.

Re: w/c26th

You're silly Mick congratulations on the work for 2018 TT!!

Re: w/c26th

MAE ALL....

Mick...got some of the chores done, didn't want to overdue it. LOL Sorry about the zilcho nish nada yesterday but bonus points for exercise! Yup went into work this morning and decided to take the afternoon off. My twin had an operation over the weekend and couldn't get her off my mind. She's ok but had to have another toe amputated. Diabetes. Couldn't concentrate on anything and didn't want to have to redo it all tomorrow. Got to admit the boss is really into work/family balance and it's appreciated. So just a little excited about Harry and Megan. LOL Times they are a changing.

Pauly...and you have a closet full to be wrapped. :welldone: You just continue to impress! Sending you "SNAPS" to get the lingering gone.

TT...great news on the job, at least it's something. Too bad it's in another city but it sounds like that'll work out. I'm so glad that the drinking "thoughts" were only "thoughts". Shit happens and it's how we deal with it that makes all the difference.

Lav...I don't even have anything stashed. Working on a cross stitch twin baby announcement for my niece so will be happy to just get that done!

Have a peaceful evening all...:smile:PPQP

Re: w/c26th

Greeting Abbers,

‘Tis the season so I’ll be spending my evenings in my shop stitching. Tonight it’s lace ornaments, oh boy

Mick, sorry yesterday was a fail. Maybe it’s time to give up detecting until Spring?
My chicken apparently made an appearance again today, I found an egg in my herb garden, ha ha! That poor thing is going to freeze her a$$ off, it’s really cold at night around here.

TT, Congrats to you! Your new job sounds like an awesome adventure
Drinking thoughts pop up when your’re not expecting them. I even had one today for absolutely no reason whatsoever!
I hope you enjoy your time with your daughter.

Pauly, you are fine, everything is fine......just keep telling hourself that. That’s how I have gotten through the last decade of my life with all the ips & downs, believe me!

PQ, sorry to hear about your sister. Diabetes can really be a b*tch I hope she heals up quickly.

Det, hope you are doing OK

Hello to everyone else, have a nice night.

Mick, we will gladly take Harry if you take Trump off our hands, ha ha!

Re: w/c26th

Good eve ABerooos,

a tad better here... hopefully my sense of humor returns soon as I miss it. Thanks one and all for the encouragement.
TTops, celebrating with you in NZ would be amazing, I just need to get a large list of bills paid somehow. ugh.
Lav, chickens are your workout program I see?
After making some 'adjustments' with payments to the IRS looks like I'll be able to afford resuming my therapy sessions. I'm sooo
relieved as they are a big tool for me. Tomorrow night... fingers crossed.
PPQ, so sorry to hear about your twin.

thank you one and all for your strength, insights and humor... you really help a lot.

be well loves
