    It's great to hear that! :)

    If ever she needs some help and you forgot how to do such and such problem, you can ring me :)

    I'm sure she was very cute for Halloween and surely got many candies :p
    Either that, or your neighbours are still egoists.

    Still 12 years younger than me...

    Yeah I'm REALLY stubborn... particularly when I know I'm right... but I am quick to admit I'm wrong when I really am. And it does happen.

    Stubborn can be a good thing. Only if you know when to give in :)

    Just Looking

    Any other ideas? It's a total of 8 (including me) people coming. Doesn't have be too fancy, we kind of take turns and once a month we all get together at someone's house and have dinner, drinks and play cards.

    Adam, how's things going at work? I just re read and saw what was happening. So was this a close friend of yours? I'm so sorry for the family and friends in mourning.

    No no no, I have no idea who this guy was, he lived about 60 miles or so away from me and just happened to end up in the landfill I work at.

    Adam, is that issue resolved now?

    Hey, the issue is as resolved as it is going to be. They never found the body so they gave up because they couldn't search forever. So, if he is here, he will rest with the garbage until the end of days.

    Sure is a windy day here, it really sucks because I have so much paper to pick up it is ridiculous. I picked up paper for abour 4 hours and didn't make the slightest impact. I am sure I will have to stay later to pick up some more, If I can get a picture uploaded I will show you a small fraction of what I am talking about.

    I do believe in them in a way in some stuff.

    Are you going in the direction of when a body is never found then... kind of thing? If so, what is the thing with that?

    Good morning guys.

    I have been a busy little beaver here at work. I found this oak table and I have been sanding it down. I am using all the materials here at work since its my last week here, kind of. I am then staining it a walmut color and have this super pretty marble tile I am breaking up and doing a random mosiac look. I hope it turns out. But I am spending my days doing that since I want to get it done before I am done here.

    Nice Sunny, you sound like me, trying to get stuff done at your job instead of home. Classic

    Good stuff Sunny! Can you come to my house and re do some furniture I have? How are you at sewing? I have an old retan (spelling? ) rocker that needs to be re-covered!

    Hey guys. Ya adam I am having issues with the new job. I won't have the time I have here. Gosh I am going to have to work. I haven't worked in 31/2 years!

    Ok it might be really small. Just when I said I was going to send it my lap top went crazy. I used my cell and emailed it to myself. But it's a little 10x10 oak stand. I am just gluing the marble on and then I am going to stain it a walnut shade like I said. I am sitting on a bucket with a carpet sample on top. I look really professional. I will send another picture after its done.
  • Nov 23, 2010, 11:32 AM

    Yep turned out small.
    I will send a better one when its done.

    From what I can see it looks really nice! I see your carpet piece there lol.

    I'll be back in a bit. As usual I am doing laundry. Blah.

    Here is another picture of my little table. I just stained it. In the morning I will finish the top. I have to buff the grout off the rest of the tiles and then I am putting polyurthane on it. Not sure if that's spelled right. Its going to look awesome! I am gloating to myself because I am so proud I did this.

    I am doing fine, thank you for asking, hope you are well.

    Yes, we have about 35 family and friends coming, it will be fun.

    I have all the displays and lights on the house up and operational
    (cold as a witches... ) looks really good. This Saturday we are going to do the back patio and gazebo with rope lights and other displays in the yard.

    You must have amazing storage for all your decorations. You also have amazing energy to do it all. I love the thought of it. But to do it, nah I just drive around and enjoy all the others. I do put a wreath on the door and candles in the windows. That's about it.

    I've been busy with school and looking for work. I've been temping at a few places, but would like to find a full time position.

    And I've been hiding with the dogs :D

    So when's the last day at the old job?
  • Nov 24, 2010, 06:34 AM

    Well my last day is iffy. My last full time day is Saturday this week. My new boss doesn't want to screw over a locally owned business. So he said if I wasn't replaced yet I can just work part time there for now. I am OK with that because at least I am in. Monday I go there 730-1130 then take a lunch and come here. I said I was only doing this a week though. But we will see.

    Thanks bear.
    Just got off the phone looks like there's a party at my house tonight. How did that happen? Hmm... I don't know but I am going with it. I was asked if I had a blender and that's bad. That means some crazy drinks will be flowing. I have to cook a turkey tomorrow. This may not be good.
