    Happy Tuesday!

      Do you mind if I snitch that image and email it to Marlo?.

        Be my guest.  ðŸ™‚

        Still cold here, and I should have a better idea about what’s going to happen with my contract renewal later today.  I’ve been working on my backup plans (ie, dusting off the old white coat) just in case the news isn’t good.

        How’s the hunter-dodging going?

          Thanks — I think she’ll really like it.

          Hope all goes well today. Got my fingers crossed.

          Cold, wet weather with sharp winds does wonders to cut down on hunters. We’ve had a little dusting of snow Sunday and Monday, just enough for Bebo to discover what great sliding qualities it adds to a leaf-covered deck.

            Thanks for the good wishes.

            Bebo must be an endless source of entertainment.  I can’t wait to hear about the first real snow.  ðŸ™‚

            CBtE has trimester exams today, tomorrow, and Thursday, so he’s sleeping in because he doesn’t have to be there until later. And then he’s off from Friday to December 1st.  Yeesh.

            AndiF on November 18, 2008 at 7:36 am

            Yeah, Bebo is still in the silly puppy stage which is really fun. Her reaction to things are really hard to predict — she started off being really scared of the creeks and lake but now she’s thinks splashing in water is a big hoot.

            Poor CBtE. Study on, dude.

            Off to walk.

          • CabinGirl
            CabinGirl on November 18, 2008 at 7:44 am

            Puppies are so much fun.

            Don’t feel sorry for CBtE, he has the most laid-back attitude about exams evah.  Its just wrong.

            It shows he’s very smart.  Be very happy for that.  Plus your son is very caring.  You and he are both very lucky.

            Aw shucks.   You just made my day, FM.

            I can only hope to be as lucky as your mom was to have you.

            Having kids makes every day.  I remember when my daughters were very young, I would fall asleep on my recliner and they would be asleep on my chest.  Great memories.

    Hi CG, Andi and Olivia.

    Is it really almost 6:30 am?  Geeze I’ve been sleeping too much.  I thought it was last night when I woke up.  

    Are you sure today is Tuesday?  I mean it could be Friday.  Well maybe.

    • AndiF
      AndiF on November 18, 2008 at 7:34 am

      It’s apparently really time for the dogs to start bugging me to go for a walk. Guess I better go get ready before they drag me out the door in my sleepshirt.

      See ya later.

        Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 7:36 am

        I took out George when it was still night.  I guess that’s why I’m feeling today is yesterday.  Being retired really does have its drawbacks sometimes. 😉

        • CabinGirl
          CabinGirl on November 18, 2008 at 7:49 am

          Wow, you’ve raised slacking to an art form when you think today is still yesterday, haven’t you?

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 7:53 am

            So today isn’t Friday?  Geeze I thought I would sleep through the whole week!  I guess it’s time to go back to sleep.

          I judge how cold it is outside by how much Hopey’s pee steams in the semi-dark of early morning.  Today, mildly cold. Tomorrow should be a real steamer.

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 8:05 am

            Helloooooo SN.

            I judge cold if I can wear shorts.  Right now it’s cold.

          • Second Nature
            Second Nature on November 18, 2008 at 8:07 am

            Yeah, you have a lot of leg to keep warm. 😉

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 8:13 am

            Hey I’m only 6’4″.  But then again, I do have some pretty good legs. 😛

          • CabinGirl
            CabinGirl on November 18, 2008 at 8:12 am

            Hmm.  I just judge it be how shiver-inducing it is to open the door and let the dogs out.

            I must be getting better at the slacker thing.

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 8:16 am

            You must have a fenced back yard.  If I had that I would put George out until he wanted to come inside.  As it is, I have to be outside with George every minute.  He might see another dog and go running after them.  He just isn’t smart enough to know what bigger dog would do to him.

          • CabinGirl
            CabinGirl on November 18, 2008 at 8:58 am

            We have the invisible fence.  I know some people think that’s awful for the dogs, but they know where the line is, and it keeps everybody safe from cars, which have a habit of driving too fast on our road.

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 9:44 am

            My brother has that, and I’m sorry SN, but I couldn’t do that.  Causing George any pain at all would not be something to do. I understand how that could be, but I’d just rather yell at him and tell him to come back.

            Yes I’m being a total AS about this, but I’ve had George for so many years now.  I can’t think of anything else but him falling asleep in my lap.  

          • Second Nature
            Second Nature on November 18, 2008 at 9:52 am

            Aw, you’re such a softie.  But it’s CG not me with the invisible fencing, though I’d do it if I could afford it and if I knew where I was going to be living six months from now.  They learn quickly where the boundaries are and then they don’t get shocked.

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 9:58 am

            You’re telling me 6 months from now?  I don’t know where I’m going to live in the next couple of month.  Maybe we could get a tent?  Although it’s kind of cold right now.

          • CabinGirl
            CabinGirl on November 18, 2008 at 10:17 am

            Um, I can understand that…but we have the fence set very low, and the collars give warning beeps well before they would get a zap (so they generally don’t ever get a zap), and again, there’s too many SUVs here that think country roads are for speeding down and would hit them.  Plus, the turnpike isn’t too far away through the woods, and that’s an instant dog death.

            And we’ve had the fence for 7 or 8 years, since the kids and dogs were small and the dogs getting out would have been a major problem.  This way they can hang out in the yard with us without the worry of them getting run over.

          90 sounds real nice right about now.  Can we all come over to your place?  

          • Man Eegee
            Man Eegee on November 18, 2008 at 1:20 pm

            Lets see.  Snow, the Southwest and Manny too!  I’ll be there tomorrow.  Well maybe day after tomorrow, but I will get there.

            Hi Manny, it’s good to see you.

          • Man Eegee
            Man Eegee on November 18, 2008 at 2:10 pm

            hi FM, sounds good to me.  I’ll try my best not to call you a snowbird  ðŸ™‚

          • Family Man
            Family Man on November 18, 2008 at 2:40 pm

            Me a snowbird?  Are you kidding?  Down here in the South, I’m still wearing short!  Of course if it didn’t tear my back up, I would love to ski again.
