It seems everyone was either busy or just off line much of today, and often you just don't want to post that you showered, went to the bathroom, brushed your teeth, had Frosted Flakes for breakfast, cleaned up the dog or cat P--p, washed clothes, scratched your a--, and mowed the lawn. My day was not like that, but I had nothing worthwhile to say.
Staying up rather late tonight, but Deb is not on line either.
Buenas Noches, compañeros
Wabbit
I didn't like my beard at first, but it grew on me.
Pffft! Lead you? That would be about as useful as a rudderless ship!![]()

Nope, Facebook is for games.Why not, Wabbit? I do! Tell about going to the bathroom, what I ate, etc. Oh wait, that's what Facebook is for!![]()
It sucks, but I deal. Sounds like you do, too. I went out at the age of 31. I was working at a General Motors plant when I started falling apart. I'm going to school now, and hope that losing weight will help so that I can get a knee replacement. Not sure if I could handle working with others again, due to my PTSD, though. I'm hoping so, as I will have student loans to pay off!![]()

Hmmm......I thought that this pic looked familiar.A 10 ml tank! Holy cats! Well, you probably wouldn't wanna drop that puppy. If it broke you'd have to put up those orange cones like they do in the grocery store after they mop.
Hiya Wabbit!!
I'm not sneaky, Jerry. I be a NINJA Wood Nymph.
Dunno about that SandySu. You guys fared pretty well when I played hooky over the weekend. Maybe you're the one holding it together.
Tina - I thought that was what Twitter is for. But then, I don't Tweet or Twitter or whateryacallit.

Thanks! I think if I work in a small work environment it would be better than working in a factory. As for being a leader, I did that for about seven years of my life as a manager at Hardee's and Wendy's! Never again! LOL!
Rave, you sell yourself short. I think your presence is vital to this group. Just sayin', to quote something you often say.
Hiya SandySu!
I'd hate being a Manager, Tina. I'm waaaay too much of a soft touch. That doesn't work too well in a management position.![]()
What's funny is, she now works at McDonald's 20 years later! I avoid that place like the plague! 
Nope, Facebook is for games.![]()
I used to get into them, but then I found ECF!
Ohmygoodness. That's hilarious. And, it could never be representative of me. My eyes are as dark as my hair. It't the opposite for me, I got into ECF, but then I found Facebook.I agree with SandySu, Rave!
Yea, I was told I wasn't good because the employees actually liked me. I'm not one to use tough love, as it never worked on me. Some of the managers I worked with were awful, in my opinion. I had one cuss up a storm at me for something or other, and I chewed him out. Didn't care that he was my superior, but I told him cussing and swearing wasn't going to get anywhere with me. When I quit Hardee's, I told my own manager off. She had her favorites and was a .... kisser. I don't do that. When I quit Wendy's I didn't even put in a two week notice. Left my keys in the top drawer of the desk in the office and didn't turn back. Working for that place was a doozy! The owner had four stores and I worked at everyone of them. He had his sons working there and they would take money from the safe to go gambling and such. One of them would say he'd be back before I had to do the deposit, and then call me at 3 am and say that he was too busy at the casino to come back. He was above me and said he'd take care of it in the morning. He usually did, but I didn't like that. Another lady that worked there, stole food and gave away free meals. I got her fired because I had proof (a receipt and the person who got the free food vouched for me) that she was giving away food. I was fed up with the BS I endured while working at that location, so I put in my two week notice. They talked me into staying with the company if they transferred me and they hired her back to replace me!What's funny is, she now works at McDonald's 20 years later! I avoid that place like the plague!
Oh that's right! My mistake!I used to get into them, but then I found ECF!

I know, I have a pic of the real Raven, but she was the closest that I could find to the real you.Hahahahaha!Ohmygoodness. That's hilarious. And, it could never be representative of me. My eyes are as dark as my hair.
*still chuckling*

Tina, it sounds like you have plans, which is good. I freelanced for years, which means I worked alone at home, and I got spoiled. Now, when I can, I work for a catering company, and it means lots of working with people and contact with guests. It's sort of nice to get out and meet people again. If you can find something you like and is interesting, working might be good for you. My major complaints are that the work is sporadic, especially at this time of year, it's very physical, and after my accident last fall, I'm not quite sure I'm physically up to it, and parking is really, really difficult. Sometimes the hours can be crazy, too, but lately I've only made myself available at reasonable times. No more breakfasts where I have to get up at 4 am!

Tina, I hear you! I love it that when there's a problem, if I can't immediately solve it, I can go to my manager on the shift and dump it in his or her lap. I think I'm too old for the kind of energy and responsibility problem-solving require. I'm just a worker bee and have no ideas about rising up to a managerial position. Lack of ambition makes my working life so much simpler!
Is it? I have a Facebook page, but I rarely put anything on it. I like to check in on family and friends. I know, I need to contribute, too, but if nothing interesting happens, why tell the world? Last post, I showed them the Watkins Glen photos, which I shared here, too. I have a bunch of photos on there but don't often add new ones.
You are still seeing a lot of old ones that I took long ago. For instance this sunflower, which I plan to say good night with and will post now, though I'll read to the end of the messages posted as of now and add comments before I sign off. But isn't this sunflower different than the usual? I had to get a shot.
