Hi Carla! You are like the breeze these days, how are you doing?

Emancipation I admire your drive, you are barely out the old job and right in to the new, me, I would be saying well I should really take 2 weeks off lol

Krikit are you thinking of getting a job?

So I got up late this morning, had a restless night (i'm sure there is a drug for that) but I want to officially report that it did not snow last night or this morning, the weather people - well most of them were wrong!! ohmy.gif

The wind though, it's probably one of the biggest I have heard here, it's tough to sleep when every few minutes a new creak sounds or something rolls around in the yard next door. It did make me appreciate how well this house is built though haha.

Ahh it's only 14 in Dora!! 16 in Lake Mary - actually that sounds really good - and you have the heat on which is funny lol

What's really funny is when I lived in New Zealand - Auckland in particular, it would get down to 10 or 15 sometimes in the winter and there was no central heating or insulation for that matter, makes for a chilly shower in the morning.

Nice Salary, sounds like someone wants to pay to get their life back while the employee gives up ALL their time - on the other hand, if I was in the job market it is probably something I would have thought of doing - before I realized that outside work is just a bummer laughing.gif

Did you see the show on TLC where they followed Clinton Kelly building his mansion? I didn't realize you'd make so much money from hosting a TV show. His contractor went over budget by about $150,000. Ouch. I wouldn't want to work in his mansion, but it does look incredible.

Yep.. we totally watched that - the location is really close to us, we couldn't believe how much money he was sinking into the place either! He MUST have "old money" that's all we could figure out!! smile.gif

Backgammon's fun. I like Scrabble. And cribbage. Which reminds me.... I haven't played crib in ages. I need a board.

I hate it when people let me win. There's no challenge. Takes all the fun out of it. lol

Tee hee. I of course am being sarcastic! smile.gif I love to win as well... I just didn't understand it well enough last night to put my fool proof way of winning in place!! smile.gif tee hee..

I'm not so into Scrabble, and the only thing I remember about cribbage is that I got skunked a lot.. I do like card games though.. good times! I love Carcassone, Dutch Blitz, Settlers of Catan, Risk, Monopoly, pretty much all board games.. of course Trivial Pursuit (go CDNS)!
Carlawarla
I only like tea in the morning if I'm feeling ill...but thank you anyway Kritkit! Emancipation, best of luck today at the temp agency, and the bank.
I haven't played backgammon in years, but love it. Cribbage as well! Gene and his family play lots of board games, but not too many card games. I play bridge, and go to a bridge club at the local library twice a month. Lots of nice people there. Surprisingly enough, Gene started asking questions just last week about bridge and has downloaded a free bridge game and is learning how to bid now.

Enjoy your day everyone!

Ha ha ha!! Krikit that is a GREAT story!!! so funny!!!!!!!!

my BF tells this story of her mum who worked in a gas station back home and who is quite the charector.. this older man came in with this gurgley pitiful voice and walked up to the counter and said to the clerk "I got GAAAAS"... My BF's mum was horrified for the man and said " I'm so sorry sir. i'm sure it's painful let me see if we have anything for it" (and turns to look at the over the counter drugs behind the counter... the man repeated "No.. I got GAAAAS..." and the woman was trying to spare him from more embarrasment and said "now sir.. i am looking.. i'll help you".. He kept repeating "I got GAAAASSS" until one of the co-workers stepped in and rang up his pump and showed my BF's mum.. HA HA!!!

15-2 15-4 15-6 -15-8 and a pair is 10 I win yay!

I have no idea what Crokenole is?

Oh and if anyone is looking for a nice site to play cards at (and yahtzee, word games etc): http://hoylegames.sierra.com/index.jsp

YAHTZEEEE!!!!! (Something I would hear from the bathroom once in a while.)

Thanks for the link. I'll use it. I like playing Chicktionary, Tetris, or doing the Daily Jigsaw. My BIL sent me this site Mousebreaker and says it's full of annoying games.

This is a crokinole board:



my brothers and I loved that game when we were younger good.gif

Well, it is snowing in Georgia!

Hehehe, for the last half hour big white fluffy flakes have been coming down. Of course the ground is too warm for anything to stick and technically, the temperature reads in the high 30s here, but yes, it is snow! Hehehe, the bad part is that it is supposed to turn to sleet overnight and my husband has to leave early to drive on business 1 1/2 hours south of year tomorrow morning. (he's going to your neck of the woods, Peggy). Sure hope it doesn't sleet and stays snow. No wonder the birds have been going crazy at the feeders all day.

Sounds weird, high 30's and snow!

Is that normal for where you are at this time of year?

I love big fluffy flakes!!! kicking.gif

The nice thing is that your husband will be travelling south, so he's moving away from the weather and you won't have to worry. smile.gif
