The old “day shift vs night shift” wars. I had to deal with that when I was working a side hustle while in the military, wiring up electronic control cabinets. The day shift liked to sabotage what we did and then claim that our shift was incompetent. Luckily, it was largely ignored by management.
HI! How are you? What’s been going on? Welcome back. 
talky I’m glad the surgery is proceeding smoothly. It sounds like a long day for all concerned.

Back home again. We fetched Roxy, and when her mama got home, we ordered supper from Domino’s. All was ingested, and now we’re home, chilling. It’s still pouring - I thought the rain was supposed to be done by now. Dammit.
Here’s hoping I get real sleep tonight…
That means everything went well! I’ll bet both of you are out of your minds with worry, but overlyboy will be up and complaining about being hungry in no time at all.
Someone tried to “poach” me today and I was really flattered at how quickly the restaurant staff got between us. I was getting paid out of the cash register when someone came up and asked if I could supply her with soft cheeses as well. I’m perfectly capable of telling people that I don’t want to work that hard, but I didn’t need to, LOL! (I’m making about 450 per month and if I work harder we will have to pay someone to look at our taxes and social security.)
Seeing as how delivering cheese counts as being productive, I came home and started more cheese, started some laundry, started the dishwasher (cheese making uses a lot of big pots) and cleaned all of the spiderwebs off the back of the house.
While hubs was out, he bought me a couple of pots of carnations. (He rarely says he loves me, he never buys candy for Valentines day and usually forgets my birthday. He shows that he loves me all the time.) Of course GG had to see them, but when I bent a flower down towards his nose he pulled back so hard he fell off the chair. We both laughed. GG pouted for a couple of seconds before noticing a spot on the wall.
Ah, yes, time to cue up my annual “but I did taxes LAST year, WTF I gotta do this again?!?” yearly tantrum.
I haz a giant “Awwwwww” 
now.
… and now I haz the giggles.
Sorted paper all day and managed to throw out (recycle) about a hundred pounds, I’m guessing, including all tax documents from before 2019. I made lumpia for dinner, using some ground beef I made from a flank steak, and a half pound of ground lamb from the freezer. Added green onions, shredded carrots and chopped cilantro and some curry powder. Not bad.
Howdy y’all.
Happy birthday, Alex Catt!
Unknown Where exactly is your cheese empire? Cuz I’d like to try some.
Best wishes to overlyboy!
It looks like the job will come in on schedule, but I’ll be working 7 days for the next few weeks. Things are getting normal-ish. I’m down 10 lbs over the past week and a half, cuz I forget to eat, even with reminders in the phone, had to go to the next notch on the belt. Also cuz I’ve been moving around things that are very large and heavy, like 8 foot square and 18" thick made from plywood, so like 250 lbs. But those are done, I only must move them once more. The rest of the stuff is strictly scenery, light weight and portable. I generally ignore the reminders, stupid I know. But I got a rotisserie chicken and will make dinner and sammies from that.
As a side question, when you get a rotisserie chicken and bring it home…straight into the fridge if’n you’re not eating it right away?
I just got a call from my credit union’s credit card fraud department: someone got hold of my CC number. 
I only have one CC and I use it for everything, and now I’ll be without it for 7-10 business days (= likely for the rest of the month). I can easily switch to cash/my debit card for one-off purchases, but I have a bunch of automatic charges linked to my CC that I’m going to need to keep an eye out for. Definitely better safe than sorry, but what a pain in the butt.
Have I mentioned ?
If you are ever in central Arizona, you are NOT going to be eating at a two star diner in an out of the way town. You will be eating with us and I’ll happily send as much cheese home with you as you want!
Tisks at you. After all the nagging we did too! Maybe try putting a bag of granola in your pocket? It won’t spoil and you won’t really mind if it gets a little crushed while you are moving big things.
Around here rotisserie chicken gets eaten as soon as it comes through the door and leftovers get put in the fridge afterwards. I suppose if we had the self control to wait to eat it until dinner time we would put it in the fridge.
I haz a mad for you too. %$#@! scammers. You shouldn’t have to be dealing with this %^*(. Redirecting auto-payments shouldn’t be that stinkin hard either.
The main reason I was so mad at him for refusing to get his COVID jabs was because I was scared to death. The man has had a quad by-pass, refusing to be vaccinated was like playing Russian roulette. I didn’t want his dumb ass to die, I want him to be around for the rest of my life, randomly buying pots of flowers just because he knows I like them.
Did he ever get his jabs?
Only after getting COVID and Delta, the dumbass. We are old. We had agreed that we wouldn’t get any more young cats. Hubs caught COVID and I bought GG cause I figured if I was going to be a widow, I would have the Maine Coon I always wanted. Plus GG was 2600 bucks, which was going to make hubs flinch anyhow. After hubs recovered from Omega, he refused to get jabbed because his amazing immune system would protect him for the rest of his life. He caught Delta 6 weeks later and I put a deposit down on another kitten. He got jabbed and promised to get his boosters. I gave up the deposit.
Can you tell I’m still mad about the whole stupid thing?
Howdy Y’all! I was a sloth most of the day except I did do one thing. I got the propane tanks for the grill filled today. Go Me!
Just to clear things up, you can take me out in public. You just can’t make me behave. I know how to behave, mind you, but I may or may not do so.
Oopsie grrr about the credit card, but yay on the credit union for bein’ so quick on the draw.
Nameless good to know GG Cheese is so popular!
Corned beef & cabbage, and a Guinness apiece, have been consumed. Wifey surprised me by going back for seconds. She never does that.
Wow. Shoulda got a puppy while you were at it.
I couldn’t find an English Bulldog breeder.
Drinking Guinness and watching hockey in my Greg McKegg St. Patrick’s day jersey. Imma gonna need more beer for this game.
I have a ball that you pt treats in, the dog rolls it around, and the treats fall out. It took me 6 months to teach Gordie how to use it.
MG!
: plays happy clarinet song :
To be fair, I end up with OT, and look like a hero to TPTB, so I don’t complain too much. 
Yes.
I agree. And that sucks.
Me: “I want another beagle”
Future me at the shelter: “I’ll take the weird thing that’s foaming at the mouth and chewing a hole in the concrete floor.”
And if I’m ever in AZ, I’ll stop by for some cheese. 
Maybe you should have gone ahead with the second kitten, to give George a playmate to burn off some energy with.
Cute rats shoe!
sunny, there were times when a bowl of Seyfert’s and a beer were an acceptable meal. 
Happy birthday Alex Catt!
I have the Econ / sport options on my car too unknown. I found out that Econ isn’t for highway driving and haven’t fully figured out the use of Sport’s two gears for it.
emily :tacklehug: Long time no see!
Glad overlyboy is coming out of surgery wordy.
VanGo, usually, I make one meal from the rotissed chicken when it comes home, then package the rest for other things and put it in the fridge or freezer.
Irked, came home, took Nelson to the dog park, came home again, napped and am now almost ready for bed. Such excitement!
Stay safe and healthy y’all!
