I've been lurking 'round here as usual, I'm just a little wound up to post. There was some trouble at work a few weeks ago, and I wound up in the middle of it. So I'm still a little PO'd, and if I start writing I'm fearful I'd spew venom!

Oh no!!!!A venom spewing sewer....that is a frightening scenario! Sorry things got bad at work, hope all is ok now and that things get better!

DU - sounds like a plan! I love the Muppets 3D Adventure!

Venom spewing is allowed around here if you feel that it is necessary and helpful to you

We are here to listen and help anyway that we can.

Morning all.

Wow! REALLY quiet here today! I spent a lovely day with DH. We went out to breakfast, went to the range, had lunch, read a book, took a nap and went out to dinner. We're now in our jammies and ready to read and spend a quiet evening!

I hope everyone else is having a great day!

Whadda day.

Elvis jumped off the stairs, about 5 steps this am (he is sooo stoopid), and dislocated his knee!!!! So I spent most of the am at the vets. Anyhooo his kne is back in place, but lotsa medicine. And no jumping up or down, or running for 6 weeks.
Now how does one get a 9 month old puppy to NOT DO THIS.
Anyhoooooo he seems fine..just walking with a slight limp.

Hmm

I never would have suspected that from you

I don't think you can hold puppies, kittens and small children down, no matter how hard you try. It just isn't in them to stay still for very long.

Have a good rest Betsy, I think you deserve it after working so hard.

Ann, sounds like you had a very busy day eating, sleeping and reading

Well I "let" my crew engage in "shop talk" during the day. One of the "shop talkers" complained to HR about the others, and I got in trouble for it. I was told I should have known what was going with them at all times, and quickly put a stop to it. I mentioned when they are in the field I have no idea what they are talking about since I'm not there, and since the "shop talker" never complained I never had an clue something was wrong. Anyway I was reassigned to administration/engineering at a different location.

You mean you don;t have spy cams focused on them all day?

Yeah, come on sewer

That is a really silly thing

You cannot possibly know what people are talking about when you are not physically there to hear them

We had our street party tonight.

It was decided that we should have a "back to our basic roots" party.

Our street party tradition started about 18 years ago with just the people on our little circle and the street that attachs to it.

Over the years it grew to be very large with people inviting friends etc, so large that it got so that I hardly new anyone who was attending it anymore

So this year it was back to only people who live on these two streets again.

We still had about 35 people but it was very nice.

We have an annual clambake that started out as 4 families whose back yard connects. Somehow, 4 or 5 years few ago, it too became huge, people I don't know in my backyard! We decided to go back to the orignals a couple of years ago too. Much nicer when it is the original people. So does the guy who interferes with garbage cans come? Cause I'd like to eve's drop on your conversations!

We had 2 of my sisters and their families over for dinner last night. grilled London broil and pork loin, roasted red potatoes and salad. Simple but yummy.

There has been some trouble in our lab (not my dept.), and the company has been in court because of it. They want to make sure it does not happen again, so I became the scapegoat for internal problems.

Nope, they never come

Not really fair is it? It was not something that you had any control over

My niece is 15! She is the youngest of mine and my sister's kids-we are headed over there later for cake~have I told you guys my sister is gonna be a granny? Her 19 yo DS and his girlfriend are due in september. Its a good thing they have a strong support system and Brianne seems to have a good head on her shoulders-I think they will be ok. Apparently she wasnt aware of the bad idea of mixing antibiotics with the pill ~

I am loading pics I took of my friend's band. The web guy is finally adding them to the website-its only been a year in the making. The jerk had the nerve to complain when I got tough on him taking so long to get the update done. I am so over his petty-ness. I like Walt's quote, "keep moving forward." I hate going backwards on stuff and that includes dwelling on kayrap that is over and done with

Hiya Threadkillers!

Everyone is eating yummy food and having really nice get-togethers....I'm glad!

TW - I like your attitude - keep moving forward. I hope all goes smoothly for your sister's grandbaby as well.

DH and I are off to visit a friend in the hospital. He had what we thought was minor cancer in his lungs and it's spread to his bones and his brain. Unfortunately, he was out and fell, they took him to the hospital and he looks like he's had a stroke....his left side is affected.

Tom is very sad today, they are good friends. The family's arrival is scattered between today and tomorrow, so I'll make a casserole (gobbler cobbler & salad) for them for tomorrow's dinner.

Oh! On a funny note! I was cantoring mass yesterday (voice is better) and in the middle of a song (for those of you Catholic - the Lamb of God) the mike FELL OUT OF THE STAND! Crash, Bam, Boom! It hit the floor like a well mic'd ton of bricks!

What could I do, but get down on my knees, fish the mike up and keep singing! When you cantor on Saturday you are the ONLY singer! Fortunately, we had someone else there as a back-up incase my voice wasn't up to par, so she kept singing! But with only two people and her voice is soft, soft, SOFT! You could really tell.

After mass a friend of mine walked up to me and asked, "Drop something?"

Ya'll take care and I hope you enjoy your Sunday!
