I need to get busy, just been sitting on my ass all morning looking at real estate. Don’t know why, I can’t do anything anyway.
It’s only me and Sah-son here now so I can enjoy the quiet and I guess start my laundry. I haven’t seen him all morning so I guess he is still asleep. My mother is giving me grief because he isn’t in college and I said HOW? am I supposed to enroll him in college when I don’t know where we’ll be living. Then she gets all pissy and says I should be trying to get him some grants and I repeat HOW? when I don’t know where we will be living.
Does anybody know if online colleges are any good?
I know he can take online classes at the community college but eventually he’d have to go to the school itself for exams and some other class work - depending on the class. The only classes I never had to go to the college for were 2 different computer classes where we could take our exams online - being that the exams were testing us on how well we knew the internet.
For everything else I had to go to the testing centers to take mid terms and finals and had to go to class for presentations and to turn some work in.
Howdy from da cave. Got the oven heatin’ up for cornbread as I post. Cornbread muffins to be exact which are different from corn muffins. That Jiffy Mix [sup]TM[/sup] stuff is not cornbread, it’s corn muffins which are sweet. Anywho, Ham 'n N.O.T. soup and cornbread for dindin tonight. YUM!
BBBobbio I saw bald eagles a lot down around Pine Mountain, Jawja when I was a cub. Pine Mountain is near ye olde hometowne. 'Tis, indeed, a pretty jake experience to watch 'em soar.
Lucky why be unobtrusive when you can make a scene. You know that already though.
sari I’ve never done online skool but if there’s sump’n that interests SahSon it might be worth a little lookin’ into even if it does mean an occasional appearance on campus. Gotta be his decision to want it though or, IMO, he won’t get much out of it.
uh oh
looks like I killed the MMP
I got Chinese for lunch and got Sah-son his pizza. He loves 7-11 pizza and the 7-11 is right next door to the Chinese carry out. Perfect timing too, when I stopped to get the Chinese the 7-11 was packed, when I came back out the 7-11 was empty and they had just taken a pizza out of the over so I didn’t have to wait.
Clothes are in dryer.
Everybody is full and happy, even Sah-dog.
Home at last. Missy Prissy was in major bitch mode this morning. I had a piece of equipment on my desk that she didn’t know I had, and she got all bent out of shape and had someone take it away. Then he guy who brought it to me yesterday came to me today to see it, and I had to tell him that MP took it back. He was pretty incredulous. And I was pissed because not only did she have it removed, but it turns out all the drawing I was doing yesterday - AT HER DIRECTION - is pretty much worthless because the engineer had made changes that MP knew about and didn’t bother mentioning. Meanwhile, why the hell did she tell me I should draw it??
I swear, as soon as I’ve got enough cruise cash in the bank, I’m gone. Unless she’s abducted by aliens before then - I might stick around under those circumstances.
I did have some real work to do for the rest of the day, along with some making copies and putting papers into a binder. :rolleyes: But most of the day went quickly, so there’s that.
**FCD **doesn’t want supper tonight. I’ll probably just do a sammich.
**sari **- if you’re a good enough actress, you could screw around with your nemesis - be all Disney-Princess-smiling-and-cheerful-saying-sweet-things-being-very agreeable. It might make her head explode!
That’s all I’ve got for now. Happy end of Tuesday!
hmmm maybe FCM and I could do something like Strangers on a Train? Is that the right movie? I’ll take care of MP if she’ll take care of HFH? FCM do TPTB know about MP and her attitude. You’d think they’d be giving MP a good talking to if not actually getting rid of her, it sounds like she is sabotaging your work on purpose. That can’t be good for the company.
Swampy I think I need to move to Georgia just so I can pop in to eat dinner at your house every night. I’ll bring beer and cookies.
Irk was irksome. It is extremely clear that Night Audit Lady was thrown under the bus. Maintenance M and I are both nervous now. We’re in a position to be done in the way she was if something slips up. Not a good feeling.
On the other hand, my eye dr. appointment went well. I had a major brainfart and forgot to take my prescription to the glasses place right next door, so I’ll have to do that tomorrow. :smack:
**sari **- they know what a pill she is but for some reason, they keep her on. I think it’s partly because she’s been there so long (14 years?) that she’s set up a “system” that no one else knows. I do know that she didn’t want them to hire anyone - she was sure she could do it all herself. Except she’s not doing it. The stuff I was working on today has been in limbo for 5 years!
But if it gets really bad, I will be having words again with my boss and his boss. In fact, last week, his boss asked me how things were going and whether she was still giving me crap. I don’t need a reputation as a complainer, so I’ll whine here and try to be more serene at work. Till I hit my monetary goal, then it’s all over!
Mac-n-cheese for supper - it was OK. Shortly, I shall assume the knit position. Another exciting evening at FairyChatEstates.
Went on a major baking binge over the last couple of days. White bread, cinnamon bread, orange pound cake, breakfast bready stuff, tuna biscuit cups, popovers…
Missed the usual volunteer stuff today due to insomnia last night, but will be going to that class this evening (and driving a classmate. She and her husband only have one car and he needed to keep an appointment this evening).
I’ve been at my current irk job for almost thirteen years, and the last two days have made me think of quitting. If I could find another job in the same line I’d jump.
