My mum was the same she said lyrics were disgusting not like in her day where people met under the apple tree....What did she think they were doing under the apple tree...drinking cider???

And in Irish songs couples "diddle daddled"

I don't like that this world is run on words and doesn't care about the more visual people in it.

I'm trying to remember what other 45's I had. I remember having one of those cases you carried them in too. I had a bunch of 'em, but can't remember any of the other ones!! Gosh, I must be getting old. I can't even remember all of the albums I had either... I remember Journey Infinity (listened to that one almost constantly and still love Steve Perry), Boston, Frampton Comes Alive..... back in high school I had steady babysitting gigs every weekend so I was able to buy the ones I wanted... I was pretty much a loner back then and hid in my room and listened to music and read books when I wasn't in school.

Thanks. I ended up agreeing to something I didn't agree with because my grasp of the subtleties of words and meanings is a little compromised. And if you speak too fast I can't understand most of what is said. and now i have to go back to the person and tell them I don't want to do the thing. I'll look like a piker.

I had some 45s I think - I don't remember what they were. The first album I remember buying (probably not the first I actually did- but the one I remember) was Dvorak's 9th Symphony.

Sheepdog!!(aimed at me and me only)

My life's work has been designing a tool for a certain class of workers. It has the potential to save their company heaps of money but these particular workers are set in their ways and won't give it a fair trial.

Grrrrrr!

People fear change. Saving money is normally a good motivator, is there anything else that would be a benefit to them? Is there a way to prove it while minimizing their risk in trying it?

She is a senior and I wonder about her going off to school where we are not close by.

What really has me pissed off is the 504 plan proposal we signed off on came back with alterations. On the form we signed. It looks like we agreed to the changes. Fortunately, we have a copy of before and after. I can't believe they would try to alter a document that was previously signed.

Schools are pretty sketchy on 504's , my granddaughter and youngest both have been through this and both times the district was less then helpful. You have laws on your side, so stay strong, stay on them and keep all paper and electronic trails. (((HUG)))

Remind me again why I bought this shirt? Oh yeah, cause it's long and flowy and I can wear it over leggings. Too bad it's so wrinkled it's not recognizable and I hate ironing! It's in the dryer with a wet cloth, crossing my fingers. Don't want a fashion faux pas to cause me to be late for work. . .

That sounds frustrating.
Do you know why they won't use it?

I recently bought a bunch of these awesome shirts for layering under my scrubs. Cool, very soft material, nice enough looking that you can wear them without your scrub top.....until you wash then a few times. . They come out of the dryer looking like tumbleweeds now. I don't iron.. especially not what is essential underwear. I don't know what I am going to do with them.

Dryers destroy pretty tops. I'm looking forward to the day when I have the means and the space to hang my shirts to dry again...

I fantasize about living off the grid in the wilderness and never needing money again. But I am a sugar fiend so I would need somewhere with lots of maple trees or learn to bee keep ( but bees scare me....). I couldn't go sugarless for life. Otherwise I think I'd manage except for I can't figure out how I'd house and feed the horses or parrots......

One of my friends at work says "I didn't want to work today but I'm addicted to living indoors."

I am off today. But I do have a therapy appointment, which is harder for me than going to my actual job.

Therapy is hard work.

Having the worst ****ing work days. I won a ton of money for a client, but her attorney fees were huge and we were hoping the other side would be forced to pay those because they had no good faith basis not to pay in the first place, but nooo. The judge HATES my client. She is a really difficult person, super emotional, volatile, overwrought, gets hostile really fast, yells, etc. However, she is RIGHT, so it should not be relevant that she is a total pain in the ***, but the judge gave her the bare minimum that he had to, and keeps hammering on every discretionary decision. So then she blames me. The other side keeps lying to the court and accusing me of **** and I have to keep proving over and ****ing over that I have not done anything wrong. This whole case is just misery at this point and I cannot get out unless I want to risk receiving nothing after 2 years of work. So so enraged and depressed at the same time. On an anonymous forum, I can admit that I keep thinking about going and buying a gun and killing the other attorney and then myself. I won't actually do it, but I spend time staring at the ceiling at 2-4 am thinking about it. This other attorney is just so slimy but so politically connected that the judge won't report him and if I do, I will just get hammered in the court system.

I took today off work too. Decided 2 3-day weekends in a row was just what I needed! So far this morning I've cleaned up the kitchen and the 2nd load of laundry is in the drier and I'm watching a Ghost Whisperer marathon in between. I'm going to spend some time today working on one of my therapy homework assignments too, the drawing a doorknob one.

My h just got a delivery up to the Phoenix area, I get so nervous when he has to go up there lately because of the random shootings along the freeway. I hope they catch this perp soon.

I'm sorry, MKAC. I never really thought about that side of an attorney's job.

Yay, I have a pressure sore on my stump. I hope it'll have improved by Monday, otherwise I'll have to go to school in my wheelchair. (And I hate being that vulnerable)
