Saturday at last

Wow, what a week.  I didn't mean to disappear from the face of the earth, but I kind of did, huh?  Wednesday was a going-away gathering for someone at work.  Thursday was a going-away gathering for ANOTHER person at work.  These were both women with a lot of time in (one of them had 30 years!)  One had the opportunity for a less stressful position with a certain greeting card company in this fine metropolis, the other is just getting out of a field that is moving in a direction she's not comfortable with.  No harm, no foul, but things will sure be different around there without them.

The new smoking drug I referred to a while back is $200 a month, and NOT covered by insurance.  Go figure.

The weather has been perfect for this time of year.  Chilly at night, crisp mornings, and sunny but cool afternoons.  I know the bitter cold will come soon, so I'm enjoying it when I can.  I think we'll try to land on Mom and Dad's place today, if they'll be home.  It's more fun to spend time outside when you have some room to move, and I get this little "I Miss My Daddy Syndrome" from time to time.

Well, I guess I'll catch up on some journals, then clean up this house this morning.  That will free up the rest of the day for fun.

I sorta figured we'd see you today.  Appears it will be too cold for motorcycle riding, so we'll be here.

Enjoy your weekend at your moms!

Missed you, Sis.  Not so sure this greeting card company the one woman went to will be less stressful.  I've heard of said greeting card company -- and I've heard it has been quite chaotic lately.  

Did I mention that I've missed you?

Love,
Big Bro Russ

Glad all is basically okay.  Could their leaving mean a reshuffling of positions?  Sorry about the anti-smoking meds.....almost like you'd have to stop smoking first to afford to buy it.  Maybe that's how it works?  LOL  -  Barbara

Advise from the elderly......Don't wait for that "I miss my"...feeling.  One day that feeling will come and you will have no way to satisfy it.  I speak from experience only.
