The PO wasn't too bad, only had to stand in line for 10mins. Took longer to drive there and find a spot in that little lot than it did to mail everything.

You are a saint Lisa, I don't know how I would have handled those comments. I am sure she didn't mean any harm by them but I would have taken them personally.

Randy is very lucky to have a great job and you to come home to!! Hopefully he knows just how lucky he is!
Glad the post office wasn't too bad.

I know, I bit my tongue a lot today. One time deal though I think...on my end that is.

Mmmmm, pot roast. Randy's gonna love that, especially after a day out in the cold working on that wreck.

Good job, Lisa!
Yes, apparently. At first I felt like a bad person, when we showed up at the Salvation Army. I felt like a horrible person for not wanting to help someone. But the more she talked, the more I understood that she is one of those people who refuses to do anything to make her life better, and she despises those who, like you say, save their pennies to make their lives better.

Oh well. I guess the Devil owes me $20 too.

Pot roast is smellin good.

Scott how are you feeling? You must have something good to cook for tonight..

Well that's not very nice, Mark. Laughing at someone else's misfortune. I live on a fairly busy road and I haven't seen the plow for probably 4 hours. I bet there's 3 or 4 inches of snow sittin on the road right now. The plow driver on the route that has our route must be new. He jake'd down the whole hill and was only doin about 5 miles an hour or so. The guy that did our street last year probably went down the hill doing 30 or 35. At least he waved as he buried the end of the driveway I'd just shoveled in more snow.

I agree, the idiot brothers must think everyone drives a little car that is only 8ft long, not a crew cab long bed.

Pete, I was not laughing at your misfortune, although the part about falling on your *** (which at your age is no big deal) was a little funny. I was laughing at the people that are crying because they have no snow to fool with and do not know how lucky they really are.

Don't worry about it. I was laughing at myself fallin on my *** too.
Those who have no snow really don't know how lucky they are. I've still got to measure how much snow I have here, but there's at least a 3 feet piled up at the end of my walkway.

I smiled and played nice.
I will deal with that sort of thing to an extent. Mainly depends on my mood.

I just count slow to 8 or 10 and let'er rip. Amazingly enough as long as that dozer has been on this place I never knew about the returning it to the heat position(I never asked anybody either). I just always let it idle til it smoothed out. I learned something new today.

I feel much better today, thank you for asking. It's been a rough week though. Went to the doctor on Tuesday and they couldn't believe that I drove myself there. They weren't going to let me leave on my own but I eventually talked them into it. 102+ fever from Tuesday to last night. Lots of chills and sweating. We're good to go now though and Hunter is here at my house, where he belongs.

For dinner, Susan and I are going out for sushi.

Ma'am you are a better person than myself! I would have let her have it and her @ss would've been walking! Now if I would have been driving her to a job, it would be different. But when I'm taking her to get a hand OUT(instead of a hand UP) so she can sit on her @ss and do nothing but smoke and drink while I'm out working to make money to do what I want to do with it, no way.

You guys talk about snow like its a bad thing. I enjoy getting out in the snow and goofin off. I dont mind shoveling it. It's always alot eaiser to hop on the CAT and push though. One of these days I'm going to get a blade for my truck. Just cant justify the price when I got nothing to push.

I am bro, thanks for caring. Another bad thing about this week, the meds that they gave me make me have weird dreams. I had one where I had Jezebel stuck out on a beach, and the tide was coming in. I was calling Susan on her cell, to help me pull her out, but she drove right by me laughing.

Not cool.

LOL!

Sushi. Never had it. Sounds like fun though. Glad baby, momma and daddy are back where they belong.

And, I'm glad you're all feeling better just in time to enjoy Christmas.

I just kept thinking to myself *Christmas spirit * Christmas spirit * Christmas spirit* and then I asked God if this was some kind of test but he didn't answer.

Snow is fun, for the first few weeks. After that it starts to become a hassle. The plow came by today for the first time ever. Now there is a giant mountain of snow at the bottom of the driveway.
