Soooo....psyched!

Had a talk with my boss last week about finances (haven't gotten a raise since I started with the company April 2005. He said he had to talk to his partners and see what they could do...last week he threw numbers at me; one of those, "I'll believe it when I see it" things...

He sat me down today and confirmed that a raise was coming my way. I figured 1 buck an hour or so "because of finances, we can only offer..." with more to come later....but no, I got a HUGE increase, (works out to about 17%)...! Wooo HOOO!!! Effective next weeks pay!

That will pay off the last few payments on my Wildlife of Missouri series and the books are now MINE, all 1001 books in the set!! And, And! I can pay off that photographer guy who snapped those pictures, with the ..umm... ooh well...no more problems with him.

And a good way to start the pre-weekend off with!

Congratulations! That's wonderful news!

Party for Karen's Birthday!!!!

Ah...Karen..Happy Birthday...

Is Bruster's open? Its Raining (is it EVER!) and the second scoops free!!!

Is that the Coconut bar.

You say that like you, ahh... recognize it. Been there before?

 

[tynkerbell]

Just a big hubabaloo about the wedding to take place in Rome on Sat.

But as they were walking into some posh restaurant tonight for dinner, he was carrying Baby Suri. All the photographers got pictures.....and the pictures just look like he's carrying a doll and she has nothing to do with it. I can't explain it. Seems like they were trying to make sure she didn't mess up her outfit or something. I don't know...just looked odd..

Everything about the whole Tom and Katie thing is odd.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Ah...Karen..Happy Birthday...

Is Bruster's open? Its Raining (is it EVER!) and the second scoops free!!!

What a great idea....too bad the kids are in bed for the night.

 

[tynkerbell]

Why wouldn't he hold the baby....he paid for her!

Hope everyone is okay....we had some UNBELIEVABLE storms here...lots of flooding...our school even had to be evacuated. UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Thinking about everyone...our internet was down all day and is finally up.

I left work early because it was pouring down rain. There was lots of flooding.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

You say that like you, ahh... recognize it. Been there before?

No - never been there....and I'll be watching the view when I do go there...too bad I won't be participating in any "family" pictures!!

Hugs to anyone hit by these storms!!!

No, young Skywalker...drink or do not drink, there is no try.
