THURSDAY'S 3 THINGS!
My nerves are PLUCKED this morning, so here are my 3:
1. I'm grateful that I have patience - My boss has already stepped on my last remaining nerve. Keep in mind that he's 70 years old, I TRY to remember that - our computer server was down, he wants me to call someone to come fix his computer, but it's not just his, it's the whole complex!! I called the maintenance guy to ask him to, for the love of God, turn off the heat in the building. He says, "Off?" like I've just asked him to father my child. "Yes, off, it's hot in here," "Well, it's been chilly in the a.m.," "Yes, I know, but I just looked at the weather channel and it's going to steadily increase to the low 80's by the time we come back from the holiday," "So what are you saying?" "Turn the boiler off!" "Okay, but you know your floor has a/c, right?" "Yes, but how cost efficient is it to run the heat and the a/c?" No answer. Then he says, "Well, somebody will complain like they complained about the smoke from the smokers outside coming in the open windows." "Well, if you turn off the heat, we can CLOSE the windows." "Okay, I'll tell Bob!" (Visual of Tia, who is now hitting her head on the telephone receiver). Then my Mom calls from SC, she's talking to me, talking to other people in the room, I THINK she's talking to me so I answer, find out she's not talking to me, listen to her repeat herself because she got distracted and forgets that she already ASKED me that and I answered. Then she says, "What?" and I repeat MYSELF, only to discover that she wasn't saying "What?" to me!!! (Visual of Tia running around the corner to Salsarita's, praying that they'll open early and let me guzzle tequila straight from the bottle!!!!)
2. That gas is not yet $4 a gallon. Don't know what difference it makes, because it'll be there soon, but for right now, it makes me feel better to not pay that!! How in the world are families going to survive? Good thing we eat less now!!!!
3. That hopefully, today is my Friday. I asked off yesterday for tomorrow, no answer yet. (Visual of Tia, climbing to the top of the roof with hostages!!!)
Have a great day everyone!!
Tia
3.
I am grateful that:
1. I can get a shoe on after I broke my little toe in the middle of the night on the quilt rack, I am in so much pain.
2. That we have a 3 day weekend coming up!!!
3. That I have only 6 more days until my surgery!
I would really be grateful if I had tomorrow off but that is not going to happen!!
Tia I hope your day gets better!!! In all of your misery you crack us up on here!!

Mine too so It will be hard to thin k of three things but I'll give it a shot
1. For this post which reminds me daily there are things to be thankful for
2. For the founderof this post who did not laugh at me ( or get pissed pff at me either) last night when I kept texting her during my mysery from ICE CREAM LAXITIVE. WHEN WILL I LEARN??
3. That I have control of the heater/airconditioner at work.
Darla ( quite comfortable in the office )
DP -
Yes, it can ALWAYS be worse!!!
Folks, I TOLD her and TOLD her, she didn't listen!! And of course I don't get pissed at texts or phone calls - that's why we're here for each other. Sorry I couldn't pick up when you did call, I was transcribing.
You can bite ME right on the ac/heater control!!!

Tia - you never cease to amaze me - thanks for that visual and the smile this morning. OK , I'll attempt to dig up 3 things I am grateful for, here goes: 1) That I survived my meltdown on Tuesday and my psycho moment is gone. What was I thinking? Where were the drugs when I needed them? 2) That Kristen is feeling better and will be home soon. 3) That we are one day closer to a long weekend - boy can I use it. What will I do with all this extra time, eat? NOT! Have a wonderful day. Karen
