That's a management/office type work weasel. The field type do lousy work, don't check their lousy work, makes excuses for their lousy work, and then leave it for someone else to fix.

Yep... that work weasel retired 2 days before christmas

Does gin count???

Came home and crashed and slept all afternoon and night. Up since 0400 or so. The cough is looser now. Got some Dayquil to drink, too. I do throw away the silly little measuring cups that come with teh bottle. that's like selling shot glasses with the cheap gin when the user is just going to unscrew the top and toss it.

I know better

I just missed Dr. Tyler for a moment. We used to joke about being sick with a bug and other "diverse diseases," which we'd call "divers' 'zeezes." And I just realized that I don't have anyone to tell that to as I suffer with my divers' 'zeezes.

It is like me and my mom calling hors derves...whores de overs

Shot i dont know how to spell hors de...hour du
....appetizers

That is probably whiy you are a gentleman farmer. How is the wood shed? It is probably time for the Mrs. to take you there.

It’s nearly done. The cherry slabs are drying and are down to 13% moisture so maybe a few more weeks, before they are ready.

I will start with some black walnut soon and I also have some hickory to dry. Because it works on solar energy, it’s just not very effective in the winter. In the summer, I think you can dry stuff in just a few few weeks.

 

[Wonderer67]

Yes and as the bullied kid it was torture

I know. It was awful. The worst two weeks of the year by far.

Awww.

Yeah… there’s some of that as our parent pass. Good abd pleasant memories of stuff you used to do.

 

[Wonderer67]

Up. yeah . . . no . . . . I'll go in and weasel for a few minutes. I'ma go home early because fuck this fucking shit. i'm going to get left on the last job, the one I start at the end of this month. They're not going to give me any help. No matter, I know what needs to happen. I'm not going to get any help getting my little contractor kid back, either, but I already know the line I'm taking with that one. I will get what I want no matter who gets put into the weasel grinder to make it happen. I guess that this job will take the rest of the year, and then I'll ride off into the sunset, maybe.

I just joined Weāsel Grindër.

Fell better, brother. Safe travels home.

I think everyone’s prolly sayin the same thing… fuck this week.

Very familiar with the Hokey Pokey - kindergarten. Think it was to teach us Proprioception.

The Alley Cat? Familiar with the music, but pretty sure this is the first I'm seeing the actual dance.

I hope we don’t have competong gigs with weasel paste or weasel grinder

I am the same. I just take “close enough”. My wife beer takes that shot, so I know I am the only one.

I guess that's what Normal People do. Wat, however, is not "normal." 'normal" is a setting on a washing machine or a dishwasher.

Normal is all those other people.

Yuk!

I guess she can’t handle rejection? If in politics, local or state etc, you will lose sometimes. Learn from it and try again.

She is always in some mess or another of her own making that somehow ends up being other peoples fault

I would have danced with you. Screw all those mean kids

That type of personality doesn’t belong on a board. They are caustic.

When I was in eighth grade… 1980 or 1981 we had a really old teacher, whose maybe in her late 60s, so she was old school.

At one point, she made a comment that something funny was called a Boner. I mean, I guess that’s what they called something humorous (see what I did there) in the olden days….

But a bunch of 12/13 year old kids thought THAT word funny.

Just recently I was going through my mother’s attic and found my old elementary school pictures, the class pictures that had the whole class. I remember thinking that all my old teachers were really old ladies and now looking at them, they were not really that old. Talk about a mind blown moment

 

[KyleR215]

Do any of you guys remember having to do square dancing or ballroom dancing in gym class?

In the daily song challenge thread on the playground, here was the prompt… and my reply.

Did anyone else have to do all this dumb dancing or was it just us?

Damn, I do remember the square dancing in elementary school. Was it everywhere? I thought we just did it because we lived in Pennsylvania where polka and square dancing was very popular.

My shot taker is fully calibrated for that sort of stuff too...

Am I the only one who thought, "Makeshift Emergency Tournequet"?

I'm suspecting so!

What's the Haps, Spoonies?

IDK why it has to be so hard to change everything. I think I'll be happy when everything is done.

Feels planned. You'd think by now most things would just be "plug and play" simple.

I guess I'm just a cranky bitch today.

I just missed Dr. Tyler for a moment. We used to joke about being sick with a bug and other "diverse diseases," which we'd call "divers' 'zeezes." And I just realized that I don't have anyone to tell that to as I suffer with my divers' 'zeezes.

These moments are good as it’s healthy grieving. I have them still for my late wife like spontaneous swing dancing in the kitchen.

That first time... when it really cements the fact that they're gone? That's the hardest IMO. Not that any are easy.
For my mom, it was when she picked up the phone to call her mom and ask her about a recipe.
For me, it was a few weeks after my dad died. My car had been broken into and the driver's door window smashed. My immediate thought was, "I'll call dad. He'll know what to do." Almost took me to my knees when I realized - no more calls to dad.
It is a part of the grieving process. With enough time those moments mostly turn bittersweet. But every so often - it's a gut punch.

for instamce the office manager made the decision on his own to move 400000 dollars to a different account by talking to 1 person on the board. ... myself and another girl were like ummmmm dont do that again.... the others were like la di dah

WTF? When I was on the Condo Board, even we had a policy that any amounts over a certain amount required two signatures from officers on the board and a counter signature from the property management company. The authorized persons had to sign a formal signature card at the bank. No signatures, no moving the money. Checks and Balances & Accountability. Last thing you want is a fraud situation!
Lock that shit up!

Yep... that work weasel retired 2 days before christmas

Win Column that they're gone!!

Afternoon amigo’s and amiga’s.

I had one of those @Wonder67 & @Wat_Tyler days…OK…let’s not go crazy, but a busy morning!

Re-screaned Momma’s back porch (Bushy Tailed Varmint damage), got a new thermostat for DiL’s Ol’ Chevy, got the truck inspected, visited Lowe’s for a pole saw to lop off Bushy Tailed Varmint abodes, saw some pansy’s and a Dwarf Mungo Pine that needs planting and may one day take it’s position as a semi-bonsai on the back porch…

In for a wee rest…waiting on SWMBO to direct traffic for aforementioned Mungo Pine…because whatever pot I pick…will be the wrong one!

Did anyone catch that game last night? . Barn burner…I couldn’t decide who I wanted to win…both seemed deserving for different reasons.

I would have danced with you. Screw all those mean kids

Me at 12 years old…

(Looking down at the ground of course)

“Um… hey… yeah… hi Miss k. I… was … um wondering if…um… you wanted to maybe dance?”



And fuck those mean kids!!

 

[Wonderer67]

Working from home today - heard this absolute tune - and thought I’d share…

On of my all time faves!

We did it in the U.K. too
