    Aww that sucks sunny :(
    (the working on a Saturday, not the snow :) )

    Do you work weenends as part of your job or is it overtime?
  • Dec 4, 2010, 09:29 AM
    88sunflower
    Well its not my new job I started. Its still my old job. That was never overtime. He hates paying over time. He gave me a small raise to take on Saturdays and then put me on salary. Which in the end salary was worth it because I do take time off a lot. So it seems.

    Ahhh right so soon you'll have the weekends off to chill :)
  • Dec 4, 2010, 09:51 AM
    88sunflower
    Yep, soon.
    Probably my choice. I am kind of calling the shots at both places right now. How sweet is that. One wants me full time as soon as I can. The other wants me as much as he can or else the store closes. So I am right in the middle. Its kind off good for now.

    Well well somebodys in demand :)

    I presume you probably like to stop working at your old place as soon as possible (because other wise you wouldn't have gone job hunting :D ) but I can see why it has its uses with christmas just round the corner, it can't hurt to have a little extra mulah lining your pocket :)

    Just don't over do it working too much, this is the holiday season after all :)

    Morning all... (If it still is.. )

    Hey we got 5 inches of beautiful, white stuff last night. It is a damp snow that clumps into a ball easily just like the one you had Bear. First snow, everything is so beautiful and shinning.

    Evening stringer :)

    Agreed, as hazadous as it may be it does look beautiful.

    So does that mean we'll be seeing a snowman soon :D

    Maybe Bear however I am not sure that I have any space left in my front or back yards. Everything is filled with displays and lights. Unless we build one in our driveway? :)

    Thanks Bear.

    Since this is the first snow I'll take some pics with the lights and the snow. Although some that are on the lawn will be under the snow...

    Get some nice sleep between those cool, crisp sheets Sunny an oh yeah don't forget to dream of those sugar plums and candy canes.

    I am only about half way finished with the inside decorations which requires a lot of stooping and stretching so about evry half hour I need to move around and have a cigarette.

    Good night, sweet dreams,

    Hey Stringer nice to see you around. Hope all is well.

    I made JLo's pumpkin pie on Saturday. It was amazing. I'm not even a big fan of Pumpkin pie, I'm a once a year type of gal, but this stuff was amazing! I'll be up loading pic's to the thread tomorrow.

    I'm not feeling to hot, so I am just popping in to say hello and good bye. I have shingles :eek: Just a smidgen painful...

    Adam, I was supposed to make the dip on Sat night, but I got side tracked. Don't worry I'll be trying it, it sounds amazing :)

    Bella, Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. I work with a lady who had shingles. She rarely complains about anything, but she talked about how painful they are. Hope you feel better soon.

    I'm glad you like the pumpkin pie. I'm cooking Christmas dinner - well, it's at our house and I'm making prime rib, potatoes and sweet potatoes, and the dessert. Everything else is coming pot-luck style. My father-in-law asked me to bake the pumpkin pie again, but I still need to make one other dessert. I'm looking for something Christmassy - any suggestions?

    Sunny - Sounds like you are working really hard. It's no wonder you are tired. Hopefully you are almost done at the old place.

    I like to make blueberry buckle cake, with the bigger granuels of sugar on top. Sorry I am having a brain fart as to the name of the sugar I use.

    And I usually attempt a red velvet cake. Let me know if you want any of the recipes.

    OooO I also have a great recipe for Cranberry upside down cake as well as cranberry swirl cheese cake. Not at all tart, almost tastes like a strawberry rhubarb.

    They all sound good. The blueberry would probably be my choice - I love anything blueberry. :)


    WooHoo - I finally made "ultra member". I owe it all to the Accounting boards. :p It only took me a year and a half. I'll have to see what the next step is. I think it's uber member, but how many posts does that take? And does this mean I'm officially obsessed? :confused:

    Day 10 snowed in at red's house,my pursuit of happy hips is dwindling due to the huge dinners I'm cooking to pass the cabin fever.

    The snowman we made last week has become a snow drift,the dog poo has been covered in snow every night,when it melts there's going to be a poo mountain to clean up!

    Meh, I've definitely been better. I never knew shingles were so painful! Going to see my family doctor today.

    Oh Unky, Shingles is a second round of chicken pox, but instead of being itchy they are extremely painful. Enough to make a grown man cry.

    You can still get those happy hips. Wow - it's early here and still so many things come to mind. Bad JLo! :o

    Poor Bella. I hope your doctor can help.
