I'm just grateful I'm no longer young and foolish!
I hear ya!!

Fands
of course you may want to lock the front door, turn off the phone, pack up the doggies and take off to a tropical locale for a few days too!
When is our flight? I wish!!! This is where the serenity prayer had been handy for me lately, because I NEED a vacation!

We need an Eagle Eye lookout!
Who takes care of the stink eye lookout?

Hugger -

Wanted Dead or Alive. Baby Bald Eagle's. We just want to see them

My whine: NO ENERGY! I CANNOT get motivated today! For crying out loud. I woke up this morning to take a nap already. Thank God I don't have much on my schedule today.

Ooooo, ooooo, and Newbs - great job on the job interview!!! Keeping you in my prayers. xoxoxo

Happy Day, Whiners!!!!

(((Fandy))) I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom! We are having similar issues with Mr. HGs Mom......

RZ, I hear you on the whole Regedit thing....you are right...not for the faint of heart!

More butter on the popcorn for the soaps, least?

Hope the ice is thawing, the eagles are putting on a show, job offers are rolling in, and all things whiney are right with this world!

Too busy to whine just now! Peace in the valley!!!!!! HG

Question

OMG you guys what a friggen interview 1st off I got lost and had to call her cell tyo get directions.

Then I got tagged teamed by two of them with about 30 ?'s the last one was in great detail wite down 3 of your strengths and 3 weaknesses (sp?) They both left the room to so I am wondering if they wanted to time me to?

All they said is we have a few more people to interview and then we are going to make a selection and get back to you later in the week?

Patience is not one of my strong suites

Have a topless Tuesday:rotfxko

Newby - Sounds like the interview went pretty good. I've conducted many interviews and I don't think they were timing you. They were just giving you some space to think about your answers. My advice is call tomorrow to thank them for the interview and reiterate that you believe you are a good fit for their company.

I'm off work in an hour and going to put the top down on my car. Topless Tuesday for me!:rotfxko

Unhappy Prayers needed for this whine

Nikko has glaucoma in his right eye (the bad cataract). Vet called in two scrips to the drugstore for an oral med and eyedrops. Will get them tomorrow when I have the money. In the meantime I am praying that the meds help reduce the fluid/pressure in his eye so it won't be painful - so far he's not acting like it's bothering him at all, so that's good. Vet said that when (not if) it gets painful/worse the only option is to remove the eye. I'll be saving my money for that surgery...

Could use prayers for Nikko's health and also that I find a decent housemate to help me with expenses. If I had a housemate it wouldn't be so hard to cough up the money for vet bills and such.

Least - you and Nikko have my prayers. I wish you didn't have to go through this.

I wasn't going to get into the Eagle family - but I couldn't help myself. Just spent 1/2 an hour there, and got to see the 2nd baby! The discussion on right side of page is cool too. Thanks, Ann. Nice distraction.

Great job, LTT. My view of the babies was rather fuzzy & it took forever for them to show up.

I love watching that eagle cam too...thanks Queenie.

They expect the third egg to hatch tomorrow...maybe he'll stay in the egg until St. Patty's day??
Either way I'm going to name #3 either Pattee or Patricia..or maybe I'll call her: 'Pattee-ette'??


My whine for today? I'm sick and tired of being forced to listen to stuff while on hold. While waiting to find out if, when and how much $$$ about mr's scooter repair (which he doesn't need anymore now...btw) I was forced to listen about breast pumps (!!!)and other durable medical equipment!


oye...like the super-dooper institutional grade breast pump to beat all breast pumps...

The second egg hatched today, leaving one more to go.

I can't watch them from work so I miss the good stuff...that's a whine for today.

Least, prayers for Nikko. I hate it when our furbabies are ailing.

And Newby, I am a big believer in things working our exactly as they are supposed to. This job may be just the one. If not, I know there is one out there with your name on it.

It always worked that way for me. Just about the time I was disappointed in not getting the job I wanted, another would come along even better.

Keeping the faith for you here.
