Morning All
Happy day before Friday!!
On the run this AM so what we have is some nice hot cider, oatmeal, non frozen oranges, and a basket of fresh fruit! and for the healthy eaters a big ole pan of eggs and bacon with a side of Jamies hash! red bulls coffee and tea.
Enjoy the day all

What no coffee, I'll put it out. Going to stay home one more day and do nothing. Drugs should be kicking in soon or it's not a sinus infection, better not be the flu. Not much going on at work today, should be 37, not warm enough for any flood problems yet!

Hows the smoke going Coydog? Is it smoldering, or out!!

Haze there is fq restrictions!!

coffee was on the counter Buster! hope you feel better!!
day 2

Good morning coffee please. My eyelids are still shut. My sister called my an hour ago and now is running to Missippi for BIL Dad's passing. The youngest still in her PJ's in the car has no clue yet.

On a great note picking up Mom today. She'll be my house guest for a few weeks, Yea!

Coy - good going!

Mornin'
Thanks for the breakfast coy and get through the first week.
Your body has to physically change for this to work, give it time to adjust.
At least you have time to get better Buster.
Another milestone... Jamie???
Sun here today, haven't seen it in a month.

Morning all. Thanks for the grub - I'll opt for bacon....ALL bacon.

Well, Chainsaw waited outside at unemployemnt yesterday for a few hours, and got an appointment card to come back today at 9. Of course, then we will have to wait weeks to even see an unemployment check. Seriously, there has to be a better system. We'll do ok, maybe be a little behind, but there are people out there who have NOTHING, and have to wait weeks on end.

Well - back to the grind. Happy Thursday

Morning all
Aw.. Mare... what's going on!!! Why is everyone dying!!
Went to my uncle's funeral yesterday. Well I made it to the reception anyway. Got to see lots of cousins. Also saw some pretty OLD pictures of me... holy cow the late 70's early 80's were a weird time... It was awesome.. haven't seen some in like 6 yrs or so. Got in trouble for not coming up often enough...Well deserved. I love it up there.
I did see one day that someone on FB has pictures posted of Bear Cliff in NY.. want to know who that was. Cousins live at the trail head. That's where I was yesterday.
I love it up there. Did I say that already? LOL

You are right Rich, I hoard all the time I can, they want to reduce it.. Our argument is we are getting older and need more for sick time. We have to have it knocked down by june. I would like them to go for July, That would let me use it in june, but you are right I am lucky, if the weather didn't break there would be no sleep, that was the problem!


Floozy that sucks, I don't know how long it takes here.

Morning everyone! Still a little chilly here today, but at least there's no frost. Mare, glad to see you're excited about taking care of your mom for a few weeks. Have fun! Floozy, good luck to Chainsaw with getting that unemployment. At least you have a positive attitude about the whole thing. Coy, you're doing good....Day 2 is a big deal! Buster, I hope you feel better very soon. I'll take a couple of red bulls please.

Everyone have a happy "day before Friday"....LOL!

Mornin Folks

Rich down from 2 packs + to 1 pack and trying to wean down before I go cold turkey.

Thinking of trying the patch my brother has a few of each level left over fromhim quitting.

I missed the Juggs posting. Her nephew? 37? died?

Mare take good care of Mom. Hang in there Vern.

23 Thursdays till you know when.

Mornin everyone !
Sheesh, miss a few days and I'm way out of the loop. Sorry to hear of everyone's troubles but tomorrow's gonna be a better day for sure

<--- clueless, as usual..aaha


Buzz, my son and his team went up against Nonnewaug in wrestling last nite..Got our asses handed to us and I thought I spotted you in the stands. Not even close once I got a little closer ( hehe, time for an eye exam I guess...)

Bike show in Springfield this weekend. Planning on Sunday morning, gonna be good to see some bikes again

Good for you guys giving up the weeds..

Have a great day !!

ugghhh -- thought I posted earlier.. good morning

Good Morning Everyone.

Was going to try to get to Bentley's on sunday, but might go to the bike show in springfield now instead... I guess I'll play this one by ear! Only 2 more weeks until the tattoo expo in Syracuse (now that I have the right weekend!) - Thinking a trip to Dinosaurs might be in the works - anyone up for meeting up there friday or saturday? (Or at the Tattoo Expo at the Holiday Inn Convention Center any time friday or saturday?)

Vern/Kay/Mary, your and your families are all in my thoughts and heart. {{hugs}} to anyone who needs (or wants!) one..

Love yah all/be safe/Robin

Morning everyone, I will have some saaaaauuuuusssssaaaaggggeeeeee............

Feeling much better, can you tell! lol

Buster, get better soon. Mar, long drive for your sister! Safe travel for her. Hug your mommy when you get her home! She is lucky to have you.

My eyes are a little foggy this am but that's self inflicted..............

Floozy, in NY, all we have to do is get on the internet and sign up for unemployment, they did away with interviews years ago.

Lady, getting warmer down there................I still can't believe it got so damn cold! Maybe you can start taking some of those layers off!

Coy - keep up the good work!

Morning all, thanks for breakfast Coy.

Mary, sorry to hear about BIL's Dad and speedy recovery to your mom.

Buster, get well soon!

Everyone have a good one!

Mike Read your post.....Butts quit not weeds.....

How's everybody doing? Weather feels like it might be getting towards spring time. Going to be in the 30's today. I might have to go have a beverage after work.

Have a great day everyone.

ahaaa..yea, I knew that..

Afternoon everyone! I'm not looking forward to the weekend, only because Lockdown is going out of town for an ABATE meeting. He'll be home late Saturday night, but I still have to try to entertain the girls some how. Vern, right now I have all the windows open because it did warm up today. I'm starting to shed the layers

I'd like to have a drink right now, but I'm trying to lose some weight, so I stopped drinking during the week and started exercising again. Could someone have a few beers for me?!

Hello everyone... thank goodness this week is almost over - on the bright side though it is now daylight when I get out of work.. not for long, but there is hope!!!!

I'd love to have a couple beers for you LadyH, but I kind of made a resolution to 'cut back' and figured I might as well not drink during the week. COME ON WEEKEND!!!!! LOL!!!

Mare hope your Mom is doing well

Vern - glad to hear you're doing better

Juggs -- we miss you

Coy -- keep up the good work -- oops - you too Jamie.

OK -- gotta figure out what dinner is tonight... looking at breakfast for dinner I think... Omelet anyone?

Nonnewaug!?!?!? Thats because they're a bunch of farm boys. That's right in Woodbury where I work. How cool! Did you come down here or did they take the JD and wagon up to Ttown?

happy thirsty thursday everyone.

Good evening all! I have missed all of you too! As those of you that are on facebook know, my nephew died on monday. He was 37 years old, and died in his sleep from a heart disease no one knew he had, including himself.
I have been spending everyday with my sister and her family, as she was there for me 100%, she wouldn't let me come home to an empty house and I was there for almost a week. I hate paying her back in this way but I can't change it. My daughter stated that she had hoped 2010 was going to be a better year and look how it has started.
Steve was a warm, loving caring young man. He has a 10 year old little boy who is breaking our hearts watching him cry. We all hug him and hold him, but losing your Dad at such a young age isn't easy.
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I love you all.
