It’s true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?

Notice to Employees
(includes part-time workers)


SICKNESS
We will no longer accept your doctors' statements as proof of illness. We believe if you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to work.

LUNCH
If you really must eat, eat at your desk. Any time spent heating lunch in the microwave will be deducted in five minute increments.

LEAVE OF ABSENCE FOR SURGERY
We are no longer allowing this practice. As long as you are employed here, you will need all of whatever you have and should not consider having anything removed. We hired you as you are, and to have anything removed would certainly make you less than we bargained and paid for. Anyone having operations will be FIRED immediately.

PREGNANCY I
In the event of extreme pregnancy, you will be allowed to go to the first aid room ONLY once the contractions are five minutes apart. If it is false labor, you will have to take an hour's leave without pay.

DEATH
This will be accepted as an excuse, BUT we would like two weeks notice, as we feel it is your duty to teach someone your job prior to your departure.

This new benefit program started yesterday and all penalties will be retroactive.

Fatal things to say if your wife is pregnant...


"I finished the Oreo's."

"Not to imply anything, but I don't think the kid weighs 40 pounds."

"Y'know, looking at her, you'd never guess that Pamela Lee had a baby..!!"

"I sure hope your thighs aren't gonna stay that flabby forever!"

"Well, couldn't they induce labor ? The 25th is the Super Bowl."

"Darned if you ain't about five pounds away from a surprise visit from that Richard Simmons fella."

"Fred at the office passed a stone the size of a pea. Boy, that's gotta hurt."

"Whoa! For a minute there, I thought I woke up next to Willard Scott!"

"I'm jealous! Why can't men experience the joy of childbirth?"

"Are your ankles supposed to look like that?"

"Get your *own* ice cream."

"Geez, you're awfully puffy looking today."

"Got milk ?"

"Maybe we should name the baby after my secretary, Tawney."

"Man! That rose tattoo on your hip is the size of Madagascar!"

"Retaining water ? Yeah, like the Hoover Dam retains water..."

"Your stomach sticks out almost as much as your ass!"

"You don't have the guts to pull that trigger..."

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


Another day, another 24 hours. joy


We've got a pretty big rain system moving over us right now. I'm hoping I don't lose my internet. yes


I wasn't expecting the rain tonight, but glad to see it. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are supposed to be in the mid to upper 60s, and that's when I want to try and go to the creek. happydance


Tonight I'm watching that 'Curse of Oak Island' and then the new show 'Taboo' which looks like it will be really good. bravo


Right now I'm having trouble typing because a certain little Chihuahua is chewing on my toes. shocked


She comes by my chair, and she stops and just stands there staring at me. puppy


Anybody want to adopt a cute little puppy?? razz


Have a happy day everyone.

Hello Joe, Ana, Haroula and all who stop by later! Hope you are all well!

Well our snow didn't last long, very mild weather for time of year.

We picked up the keys to our holiday home on Sunday and spent a couple of days there setting things up...it now looks homely and cosy! It's been very well maintained so nothing much needs done. We're so looking forward to spending time there and the family will be using it too.

Have a great day guys!

Wonderful Wednesday ya'll puppy

Lots of things on the docket today. The first one is getting Lil Soot off my bed. He jumped up there as soon as I let him out of his kennel this morning and is currently enjoying the good life....stretched across as much of the bed as he can occupy. I go up occassionally to see if he wants to come out...he rolls an eye at me and goes back to sleep.

I'll be making yogurt, doing laundry, walking dogs, making dinner....and then we shall see.


Niteowl, what project are you working on?

Connie, thanks for the yummies. What's up for you today?

Gail, ick. Stay safe.

Gerry, I'm heading for the hot chocolate. Thanks.

Mary, that sounds wonderful. How long does it take you to get there?

Haroula, wave

Ana, how's the corner going?

Joe, you know the more the merrier. They keep you young hamster

On my 'to do' list for today is getting the LAST of the seeable stinging nettles out of the yard. It's imperative I finish today (despite the horrendous sore muscles from bending and stooping) because it's supposed to start raining tomorrow morning and continue through the weekend, thereby crushing all hope of getting into the soggy, cold, wet grass/weeds. Hate timelines.

Only one area left of about 20 feet long by about 2 or so feet wide in spots. I'm going to do it. Yes I am!

Thanks Nan, hope you have a lovely day too!

Hi L4L! Sounds like a busy day for you! It's a 90 minute drive to the place where our holiday home is which is long enough for us.

Hi everyone else! wave

A hummingbird has made a nest right above the Outdoorsie's feeding table! I'm wondering about the intelligence of the hummingbird. I just noticed it today because the kittens kept sitting under the nest and looking up for a looooong time. I'm hoping that the little birdies will hatch and manage to make it safely to the flying stage. Amazing. Tiny tiny nest. Never saw one up close before. It's only about 1 1/2 inches wide and the mom sits on it, not in it. So cute. Still, worried about the placement. It's well out of reach unless a bird falls. No way anything can get to it by climbing the tree since mom chose a very thin fragile outer branch that won't hold the weight of anything. Watching. luck

AWww Sorta, you are so lucky! Take photos, I want to see! I'm excited! I love my birds outside.

To those that inquired, Shadow is doing a bit better every day. Still not perfect, which concerns me, but I am seeing an improvement. I have one more day of work and then I can start focusing on other things that are piling up around me.
