Morning, Fellas! First day back to work in the new year went off without a hitch, though some lady came in that had some serious BO.
I used an entire can of air spray after she left and still couldn't get the smell out. Outside that all is well. Supposed to snowed yesterday/last night, but didn't get anything, except for really cold temps.....something I'm not ready for yet. If winter must happen, let it happy quickly so we can get back to spring. Well, that's all I've got. Have a good day, guys, and we'll chat later.
TTFN
Morning boys.
Start of a 12 hour shift coming up. At least today I'll get a break after a couple hours (and then no more). Getting up early tomorrow is gonna hurt. Then again... what else is new?
How'd that 12 hour shift go? Hope it wasn't too bad.
I recall you saying before how you were trying to get that foot in the door. Keep up the studies. Knowledge gained is never a waste of time/effort.
I was, and now that I have that foot in the door it'll, hopefully, be easier to get a coding job when that time comes. If I'm lucky, I can get on with the VA, nice government job.
Hello gents! A very belated Merry Christmas to you all and an on time Happy New Year.
I hope you are all enjoying the holidays.
I had a week off during Christmas, back to the grind now. Working day shift for the new year, but I don't really mind it. Honestly DW and I don't do much anyway. My biggest decision for New Years is normally if I should wear pants or pajamas to the living room.
And a Belated Merry Christmas to you, too.
Funny story from Christmas Eve. DW and I had intended to bake a couple batches of cookies (gingerbread and shortbread) in the morning and we would decorate as a family that night. I went out shopping for Christmas brunch that I always do for my parents and brother. DW started the gingerbread and messed up the butter amount. I have no idea why but when she sees 3/4 cup she thinks that's three 1/2 cup blocks. She admits she could never understand fractions in school. Anyway, we had to double all the other ingredients and ended up baking much later than planned. We had four big containers of gingerbread that we didn't decorate until the 27th.
Wait... you had all that and you didn't send us any????
Yeah, what pkondz said! I want some cookies!
Christmas day was opening presents, eating too much for brunch, passing out, then going to my parents for supper and eating too much again. About right for Christmas.
Sounds like us. I ate so much that day.
Sad news, for those who may not have heard. Betty White passed away today. :sad1
I know, couldn't believe it. I thought she'd live forever.
Hey guys. I keep dropping off this board in favor of more readily accessible social media platforms. Hope you all had a great New Year and that 2022 treats you well.
Oh, I also needed to posts I could figure out my DisDad#
Well, welcome back. Grab a seat and stay a while.
We got a ginormous
Lego castle about 2 years ago for The Kid. She built it at the dining room table and we have yet to figure out a good place for it. It is now the 4th member of our family at mealtimes.
Nice of you to think of it as family.
Morning, gents.
One more hour to go and my (overly) long stretch is (hopefully) over.
As long as no one calls in sick, I should get back to my normal rotation starting with 3 days off. Mind you, there's a chance that I'm working one of those already...
Then some rest.
Looks like the making of a second career in the works...
That's what I'm hoping, and if I play my cards right, a career I can work from home. And this is a career that, if I go the right route, I can make some good money, so there's something for me to work towards.
