Great. Heading into full-blown fury. One of my customers who orders the lowest price thing on my menu and gets a special deal on delivery pricing on top of that wants to renegotiate his prices for next year. Ugh. I want to price out what he gets so that I can ‘negotiate’ intelligently, but my mind is in such an uproar that there’s no way that I’ll be able to do such mind-numbing tedious work right now. And so it gets worse.
Ugh. And even though I do it alot, I HATE complaining. Hopefully tomorrow will be the day for the good drugs.
I think I’m going to go to bed now. Or maybe become an Episcopalian and go get drunk.
rigs, I’m pretty sure that if you delete pictures from your library you’ll lose them from your album. The way I understand iPhoto, everything is stored in the library and you organize it in albums that just refer to the picture in the library. I create albums every time I import photos and that’s what I try to organize. I haven’t updated iPhoto in a while, but I’m pretty sure that’s not something they would change from one version of iPhoto to another.
LiLi, those are really cute pictures (thanks for fixing the link rosie!). Also, your blog is really entertaining.
Hope DH is better soon, gotti.
Hi Pie! (That rhymes!)
And hi to everyone else. I’m really tired and need to write some Christmas cards, but I’m not sure I’ll make it that long. I was at work at 6:45 this morning and didn’t leave till almost 6:00 p.m. At least I had a long lunch, but still.
Really? Thanks. I thought it was generally just grumpy. And thanks for fixing the link, rosie. Oh, and now you’ve all seen a picture of the sister-in-law I Can’t Stand, too. I think it’s an unfortunate and unflattering picture of her.
Gahh. Baby is kicking and I’m having those ridiculous one-sided contractions. Except sometimes I think they’re contractions when I’m being kicked, and sometimes the opposite. It’s all very confusing.
Have a nap, gt. Even better, slope off to bed with a good book, lie around drinking tea, and then go to sleep.
gt–well, that stinks. I don’t like opening iPhoto and seeing a whole bunch of random pics there. I want to see “folders” disguised as albums, all neatly labeled and in chronological order, dammit.
I waiting for the bath. #2 son is thawing his 9 year old self out. Thank god for snow-it gets him outside.
Please cross your fingers that Sue is working tomorrow. I like her so much and she makes work fun. Not like Lynne or Lisa… I’ll cope either way (I know Lisa will be there) but work sure is nicer when folks are pleasant.
Feeling somewhat better. I can’t do anything about my grades and my possible future until next year, so I’m trying my best not to fret. This wouldn’t be such a big deal any other year, but this one…I’m trying to decide whether or not to dump my Reasons Why 2K7 sucked rants, but I think I’ve gloomed this place up enough today.
Wooo heat for mmmm!!! my washer is outside, I just have to drag it in. Canes won in a thrilling come from behind victory(2 goals in the last 2 mintues to tie it.).
Taters, :eek: Donner, party of[del]4[/del] [del]3[/del] [del]2[/del] 1, your table is ready.
Great news, snowbunny! I’m off Christmas, too(because the store is closed).
I forgot to say YAY FOR HEAT!!! earlier, but what with it being actual winter where I am, I have to say it.
My arm is sore. It almost feels like I have a spasm, but I can’t find one, so I assume I pulled something a bit. I can manage, but driving is a Bad Idea. AAAAAAARRRRRRRGH! Of course, driving is a Bad Idea anyway for the next couple of days or so because of this white stuff that’s been falling. It may have been light snow all day, but even so, it piles up after twelve or fifteen hours, tiny flakes or not.
How can I explain to my roommate that I can’t scrub my shower for the next couple of days at least because I managed to injure myself stupidly? Hopefully the subject won’t come up, but the shower does need cleaning. I guess it’ll wait.

Well, now the holidays can finally begin - I’ve made my first batch of holiday treats. Just packed em up to take to the holiday party at work tomorrow, the Magic Cookie bar, aka Hello Dollys–it’s on the Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk can. These cookies are sinfully rich and delicious and pretty easy to make. I’ll also make some tollhouse cookies as well as some no-bake chocolate oatmeal cookies. I used to make the pecan puffs, but that’s so much work–the dough is very stiff and it can be painful to work with when you’ve got arthritis in your hands.
Glad to hear everyone is holding up okay. I’m thinking about all the MMPers. While holiday time is supposed to be about being with family and having a good time, it can also be a depressing time. And anyone who has lost a loved one in the past year really feels the loss, I think, more so during the holidays. {{{{{{BIG HUGS}}}}}} and you’re in my prayers, if you need them.
Morning all. My one day working week is over and I am now on holiday until next Sunday, before working my one working day next week on Monday, then holidays again until the following Saturday!
Yay for mmmmms having heat again!
snowbunny, yay for not working Christmas and I hope your arm feels better!
{{{Spaz}}} - chin up. I hope you can sort things out about your crappy professor/tutor/idiot who doesn’t know what the hell she’s doing but decided to teach it anyway!
::waves to everyone else:: I can’t remember who I missed, but hugs, etc for everyone!
Soooo, my sister arrives on Friday night, after spending the last week diving off Roatan Island (in the Caribbean near Honduras, apparently). Boy, is Bahrain gonna be a come-down for her after living the pirate life, eating lobster and swilling rum! I am fairly confident however that they do not have a super-cute baby girl who wins your heart with a single smile, so we may just win the popularity contest!!!
Today is the first day of Eid al Adha (the Eid at the end of Hajj, aka the pilgrimage to Mecca), so once HRH wakes up from her morning nap, we will put our glad-rags on and traipse over to MIL’s house to say hello and eat some sweets, before returning to our regularly scheduled programming. BTW, Eid Mubarak to everyone!
Oky-doke, off to shower and get things organised for the day. Ciao folks!
So many people to respond to, so many things to share, and yet my head is too logey to make it all happen. I’ve caught the latest strain of the Kodiak Crud and I am just. not. well.
Hmmm, yay for mmmms being warm, hugs to my fellow sickies, a polite non-hug (don’t wanna spread my germs) to everyone else, and I cannot wait to see tinyninjachef!
My kids last day of school for the year was today, yay for not having to get up and deal with early morning attitudes, wah for the loss of my onesieness during the day.
It’s cold, low 20’s and likely to remain so. We still haven’t had our first of the winter snow dump yet, so it is just all cold and dark and wintry here.
I guess I should get back in my jammies and hop into bed and watch some tv. I had better wait though, daughter is out with her boyfriend and has a 10:00 curfew. I have yet to fill y’all in on the new boyfriend, to make it short she is 16 and he is 18, and I am not completely comfortable with that. He is still in school, he’s a native kid too, and with the family disruptions he is behind a grade. I can’t fault the kid for that, I understand how it goes in an alcoholic/domestic violent family, but I let them both know that, raging hormones aside, she is too young and I will not tolerate any foolishness.
Ah, I gotta get off this stupid chair, I’ll be back tomorrow. Nighty night.
