The wifey and I came down to Waco today for a mini vacation, night in a hotel, went to the Texas Ranger museum, the Dr Pepper museum, the place that belongs to those fixer upper people, magnolia market, did a little antiquing. Dinner at buzzard billy's

Sent from a dark, twisted corner of the back porch, covered in cobwebs and slightly damp.
What a wonderful way to de-stress. You deserved every moment!!! With that attitude adjustment, assertiveness training is in the cards.

Colin Kaepernick has done nothing to disrespect you, me, the US, the police, the military or the game of football, unless you just need something, anything, to get worked up about for no good reason.
I feel like the guy is making a stupid decision and throwing a multi million dollar career down the toilet, he's getting a lot of attention mostly bad. I think he could find a way to make his stand in a more constructive way. I think he is disrespecting me and all other Americans that feel that even with all it faults America is still the best country in the world. There are a lot of things that this country does that I don't agree with or think are downright wrong but maybe he should think about what would happen if he was living in China or Russia or many other countries and made a protest like that. It wouldn't be pretty. I think he is disrespecting all vets and all people currently in the military doing what is asked of them whether it be what they feel is right or wrong. I just don't think he is going about this the right way. But if he wants to throw his life and career down the toilet that's his choice, he does live in America and he has that right.

Russell when I first glanced over this I thought you said you and your wife went Wacko which would be thoroughly understanding. Glad I read the rest and you guys deserve it. Sounds like fun.

I feel that America is the best country in the world, and Kaepernick is not disrespecting me. In fact, Kaepernick says that he would be neglecting his rights as an American if he did NOT exercise those rights, and I find that gutsy.

Kaepernick's actions are not in violation of the law, and are not even in violation of NFL regulations. Any of us who would find a way around the law if it became impossible to acquire the things needed to vape should consider those facts.

If you can do it forward, backwards would be nuttin'. Are you serious? Of course, I'm talking about doing the actual moves, not the unreasonable facsimile that I did.

They are - they are listening to the ones that are saying what they want to hear.
Noop. Itz all about the money. Something good for you (or rather, better than tobacco) and gets at least some of your health back is inevitably going to be picked up by everyone. So... tax the carp out of it while you can.

Oh no, why do you have to go for 10 days? What did they do before you got there? It's well known that the more you CAN do the more they'll REQUIRE you to do... I worry about you.
Thanks, Janet. I'm going out for 10 days because I'm working over at another base covering for a parts person who wants to take time off. I need that OT money to do my living room floors.

I'm also going because I don't know how to say NO. Boss man told me I don't have to work the whole 11.5 hour shifts because that base is slow. Trust me when I tell you, I will be leaving as soon as all the work is done. I worry about me too.

Very glad to hear that you're still hangin' in there, but sure wish you could catch a break! Sounds to me like you need to put them 15 strappin' mechanics to work... you just point out what needs doin' and have them do it! ;)
Oh, I WILL catch a break some time soon. I WILL be taking my vacation time this year!! I don't pick up on anything that is too heavy for me alone. I have a fork lift for that. :p


[USER=226868]@Rotowoman
, hope things settle down once you get it organized the way you want ti.. And yea, put those mechanics to work helping! At least the heavy stuff.[/USER]

Trust me, when I need help, I WILL ask for it.

I usually work a 7/7 rotation. 7 days on and then 7 days off. I needed the 7 this time, but am taking somebody's place for 3 days............thankfully at a much slower base.

I'm freaking tired!!

And Kaepernick should be thrown out of the NFL. Or sent to Syria.
I served 21 years in the Navy defending his right to disrespect our flag and country. I also have the right to not watch/support any team or game he is in. I think his team mates should gather around him and block the fans from seeing his dumb ... during the National Anthem!

She's still in Mississippi, so getting away from life for a visit just hasn't been in the cards for me lately. :(
Jup that does make it difficult. Would be sewwwwww kewl for you and kenna to get together for a quilt and vape!

I understand needin the OT. But jup, we gotta teach ya how to say NO. For more years than I can count, I thought it was pronounced noooo-kay :D

I like that idea! I agree with legs, I think he's going about it in a really dumb way. He's one of the lucky few that do have a voice in the media anytime he wants it. Seems like it's kinda punchin his best friend in the face cuz his g/f cheated on him with some other dude.

Hahahahaha! I see what you did there! ;) :lol::lol: It would be pretty cool, though. I'd also like to learn how to cross-stitch and crochet...

;) I can do cross stitch, although it's been years. My stepmother tried to teach me how to crochet, and I could just never get the tension right. But I'd like to give it another shot. Dunno if my hands would be up to it now or not. I was thinking about Granny Squares the other day. Would love to do a granny square afghan

Mama crochets all the time. Everything from afghans to little doilies. She's made some really cool things like that! In theory, cross stitch seems simple... then ya watch someone do it, and reality kicks in. I'm sure that one would take me a lot of practice.
