Happy St. Patrick's day!




Hello people! I hope everyone will honor the Irish and have a few cocktails today! I'm not one for green beer...I like green apple martinis better!

We have a wedding to go to this evening. One of our new employees. Going to be small, intimate and probably over quickly.

This has been one busy week. We've been implementing some changes and one employee in particular has not been welcoming the change. Of course this person has been here 30 years, and in my opinion 35 years too long. I understand no one likes change, but this is change for the better. What is the point of fighting it?

My 20th high school reunion is next year. I've slowly been contacting some old mates and finding out that we are all doing quite well.

This weekend will be quiet. Still unpacking some boxes from the move. We'll get some things up on the walls, maybe do some shopping for some other things.

Have I mentioned how much I love my new house?

I love my new house!

3 1/2 more hours until my first drink of the day!

Have a safe and happy weekend everyone. Honor the Irish....get drunk and fuck like bunnies!

Peace...

Moved in......finally!


Ok, congratulate us....we are officially homeowners again! We searched and searched and searched and finally found the closest thing to our dreamhouse. 2800 square feet, 4 level split, professionally designed kitchen (with 2 ovens....my HOB still can't figure out why I need 2 ovens....then I told him I could bake a cake AND cookies at the same time....he understands now!)

Thanks to our fabulous friends we got everything moved in last weekend and we are pretty much settled in. I have 2 walls to paint and we will start to get things hung on the wall tomorrow. The basement is a big family/party room with a built in wet bar. I think I'm going to decorate it with a "games" theme.

So, aside from moving, I've also been really busy at work. Busy is good. Busier is even better! Ready for a quick laugh.....

One of our sales people is dealing with a customer that wants to buy a small pickup (Ford Ranger). He gets her the right price, right payments, right vehicle. She is getting a small downpayment from her wallet.....stops in mid grab and says.......

"God told me not to buy today."

Yea, I'm serious. I don't have the imagination to make this shit up.

She said this with a straight face and meant every single word.

Now you know why I drink?

She put her money back and walked right out.

I hope God tells her to come back. I'd like to ask her how I get a direct line like that.

Enough for now, kids. Momma is almost ready to go home, take a nice bubble bath, have some wine and make a lovely steak dinner with baked asparagus, salad and roasted sweet potatoes.

I know what to do with 2 ovens!!!

Peace out....
