2007 Greetings

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A GREAT NEW YEAR..........MAY IT BE BETTER THEN THIS ONE.

Adventures In Babysitting.

Watched one of the Supervisors from works little boy. Mom and Dad's birthday s are close together and they like to go out to a fine dining restaurant. That means no short boy in the mix for the night.
The girls each treated him differently. Savannah patted him like a dog and goes nice baby and then walked off. Constance hugged him. Look someone smaller then me to push around.




Al wondering what that big lump on the sofa is.


Al being waited on hand and foot. Chocolate cheese cake.MMMM



Aunt Sarah teaching the girls how to lick their plates clean.

So Me.

The first person to find this for me in a XXL will be my friend for like...a day...maybe..

The Sky Is Falling.

The weather heads here predicted that the world was going to end as we know it. Ice and snow and fire from heaven was going to rain down on us . It didn't happen.
It rained and then it turned to freezing rain. We didn't get as much as they said. Schools and other places closed for the day...But not the greedy retailers..
I talked to a lady who runs her own restaurant and she said that she hated it when they try to make a storm out to be more then it is. It really hurts her business because people are afraid to go out. I think they should just say what they think is coming and what we may get...we don't need them breaking in and doom saying.
Also...the places that are open need to under stand not everyone that works for them likes to drive in nasty weather. Some people think its a really good idea to just stay at home and wait for the road to be come clear.
that's my two cents.

Christmas List 2007...

Since the list from last year was completely ignored I decided to go a differant route.
Money....if it was good enough for Sally Brown it should work for me.
I was told I was hard to buy for ...If I want something I get it for myself. Ok yeah I do that.
Here are some more suggestions...
Money
Gift Cards. Make sure there isn't a fee or expiration dates on them. Mall and Grocey store ones are known for that.
Money
A Paper Shredder.
DVD Box Sets.
Peace on Earth
Money
Ammo
A weekend of rest.

Oy Vey

There are times that I still feel like a small town boy. I think if I know something then the whole world knows it.
I work with a lady who asked a question the other day that just stunned me and everyone at the meeting. She's in her early 50s with adult children and some college eduction. She asked what the differnace was between Hanukkah,and Chanukah. Her question was met with silence.One of the other ladies said that it just depended on the group of how they spelled it but it was all the same...
Worked retail all these years and didn't think to ask before now.

Like I'd say something mean

the short ,the perky ,and Hannah.
Hire the handicap

Last Years...

Got my first Christmas present. Nancy got me tickets to see Rent. Yep for those that know me this is my 9,430 time of seeing it. It was really good. Great seats and the sound system was set not to loud. The only problem was the size of the seats. They did a remodel of the theatre but to stick in more seat they put them to close together.
Had to laugh at the group at the end of the row. A group of ladies with a couple newbies. There friends tried to explain the show to them. Its not something that is easy to explain.
The day before we had a nice ice storm. I thought back to the last time Rent came to town. There was a huge snow storm the day of the show and I wasn't able to get down to see it.Thought history would repeat its self.

What Are We Thankful For Again

Dear Aunt Sarah,
Happy Thanksgiving from Iowa. Mom decided to do the dinner this year. Uncle took that pretty well. She did everything the turkey,stuffing,pies,potatoes,some god awful dip...no not Constance.
Quiet sister dear, I know you would open the letter talking about the food.
Well it was good.
It was ok..
Your mad Constance cuz uncle made you sit down and eat.
I was just walking around to let it settle.
He did the do it now voice. Mom,Dad and Grandma wouldn't even cross him.
Traitors all of them. You noticed that I didn't say goodbye when he left.
Yeah and I'm sure he's all broke up about that. But back to the food. We had Turkey,and stuffing and twice baked potaotes and mashed potatoes, and corn and carrots and rolls,and green bean casserole. and I'm sure I'm forgetting something.
Your drooling Savannah.
Hush chipmunk.
Uncle said mom only made one mistake . Something about a bag of parts left in the bird.
And that lady that used to live in the basement was here....Grandma and uncle picked on her. She's funny. She brought us hooks to hang up our coats. One is a monkey and the other is an elephant. I picked the elephant and Constance picked the monkey. The big cheeks look like her.
Grandma did put us to work cleaning up after the meal. I think it was to get us back for...
SSSHHHHH Savannah they never found out about that.
Oh yeah...nothing never mind then.
They tell us that you are coming to see us in a month. Over Christmas and our birthday...We don't want much for Christmas...just page 326-470 of the JC Penny Big Book. and then there is....
Constance don't be greedy. She can't get us all that stuff..Just having her here is present enough.
Suck up Savannah...Suck up Savannah..!!!
Well we have all kinds of stuff to show you and can't wait for you to get here...
Suck.up..mmmmmmm
Why'd you stick that doll in my mouth Savannah.
Nothing Chipmunk
jaws
chipmunk
The Cute twin and her evil sister.

It's That time of year again

My elderly sister Mary and my friend Pat both thought it was funny to send me this. Yeah I know its coming. Merry Bugging Christmas...
Countdown

Tomorrow is another day

I had to say good by to a old friend. Yep Scarlett is no more. No it wasn't the broken out back window (done by some of the hoods darlings) No its was a combo of stuff. Just too much to put her back on the road. I didn't figure out how many miles we've been together, but in the four years we've been to help out the displaced in Baton Rouge Louisiana after the hurricanes. Been to Chicago couple times, Down to Louisville to see the Queen,out to Denver to see Stevie in concert. People and myself couldn't believe that we would go that far. Yeah what was I thinking.
So after 4 years,a starter,tires,fuel pump,brakes,oil gauge,exhaust,and a couple of oil changes its good bye.
The guy from the junk yard came to get her..hooked her up to the truck and was just pulling off onto the alley when there was a crack and the sound of metal on metal. The little crack in the frame broke and Scarlett folded up on herself. What a fitting end.

Working Hard For the Money

I'm working two jobs for the Christmas season. Sometimes I only have 1/2hr between jobs and with changing clothes and then the drive I don't really have that much time to think..Here's what happens when you don't pay attention to what your doing when walking out the door...I was almost two hours into the shift before I noticed...thank god I'm behind a counter the whole time.

Slave Labour

See there is nothing under your side Savannah. No food escapes your lips.

Savannah trying to get rid of the big pink thing in her way.

Grandma I know what I'm doing so let me to it please!

You turn it on here.
