Almost seven AM and it's first getting light out. It get's dark at 7 too. Thats only 12 hours of daylight. Winter is definately on it's way
Morning all. I'm up early today so I thought I'd start the daily thread.
Tonight will mark one week of being back in WI. It already feels like I've been back SOOOOO much longer. But that's not a bad thing. I'm glad to be back. I guess I'll always be a cheesehead at heart
Well morning all! I am so tired! We haven't been to bed on time at all so far. I have a Mt Dew and a Snickers for breakfast. Need that jumpstart- lol
Well as I said yesterday we went to Kohl's so I could use my gift card. I checked and made sure I had a balance on the card, that it hadn't expired or something. It showed I had $50. I shop forever because I can never find anything that fits right. My husband goes and waits in the car after awhile. They only have 2 cashiers and they are doing a promotion signing people up for credit cards. I finally get my turn and the cashier has to replace the register tape. Then she runs my card and it isn't showing a balance! She calls mgr and she does the same thing and tells me there isn't any. She was very nice though and decided to check loss and prevention. I call my hubby back in because even with the card I ran over $1.71. We wait forever but then she comes back and tells me that she got it worked out and then gave me an additional 10% off for my trouble.
So I ended up with a belt, jeans and some new sterling silver hoop earrings. (Sad that that's all I get for $50!) Earrings for 3 of my 4 holes. I had one hell of a time trying to get them in my ears though. They are a crappy design. My top holes are all messed up again. One day I may just give up and let those close up. Today we have to take the car back to the mechanic. The belt keeps whining, still smell anti-freeze and we are losing anti-freeze. However it does not appear to be mixing with the oil. The mechanic says that it may be the water pump. We just want to pay this stupid car off but we keep getting set backs!
Ok I'm done blabbing

Good day all. I'm a little late getting in today. I had to get a flat tire fixed.
When I drove home last night, my car kept pulling to the right. Luckily it's a short drive home, and I found I had a flat tire. And of course, the Law of Flat Tires says that tires only go flat when the weather is bad. So of course it's raining as I'm changing the tire. And I ask Brian to help me, which really just means being my third hand and hauling the tire to the trunk, when I found out he has never changed a tire before! In my family, that was one of the required skills to have before you even got your driver's license.
Morning all. Another day. I am hoping to actually get out of here on time tonight. I know that that point in the day is so far away, but I have been here late the last two days. I hope I can get things straightened out today. I still have a ton of month and quarter end work to do. Ugh.

oh hello . Today might be the day I finally snap and kill either and/or patrick/ rob the knob. This will send me to prison, but I promise there will be a smile on my face and I will sit in my cell going "it was sooooo worth it." I fear squonk might get time as an accesory to the victorious crime. snap.
or else, I'm just gonna have them sweat a bit today at work. I feel like being an a**hole today.

Morning my fun group! Some mornings it is too funny to read everyone's posts! No matter how crappy my day might seem, knowing we are all here and dealing with the same makes it ok.
Sorry to hear about your tire MZ and Woo glad you found some nice stuff.
Today was walk to school day. It was a nice 1.5 mile walk and I jogged back. The weather was nice about 70, so I did not really break a sweat. I am here now and need to get busy.
Ah, the tire was really no big deal. I have a discount card with a free flat tire repair, so all it cost me was time and dryness. And I got to be Woman Who Can Take Care of Her Own Car, which makes me feel all empowered.
You would think with all my previous rambling that I didn't leave anything out of my life story, but I did...
Starting this Sunday I may be on a bowling league. I brought this up awhile back that my sister wanted to do this and it seemed like we decided to not due it because it was gonna be too costly and I wasn't too keen on it. But last night there was a flyer at the restaurant we ate at advertising a mixed league at the alley by us. $12 per person each week. It is every other Sunday for 15 weeks. Every other weekend isn't too bad. It sounded like my husband really wanted to do it so I figured I'd give it a shot. I'm not very good but I hope that it is fun.
