    I worked 68 hours this week! I enjoyed it but it doesn’t give me much free time. It looks like next week may be the same thing.

    I hope everyone is doing well. Have a great day!

    I still have the Corelle that I bought in 1980. I'm sure my parents still have the stuff from the 60's.

    Can You Pass A 7th Grade Government Test?
    88% here (got cocky and flubbed a few easy ones :emb:)...kinda fun to see what you are still retaining...takes 10-15 minutes...some of these questions should be pretty easy for the older crowd since they lived it...but 7th grader wouldn't know any more than they are taught...which BTW, its quite eye opening to read some of whats being "taught" in schools today...can you say historical negationism?!

    Might surprise yourself...I did. Really a pretty easy test IMO...a lot of the answers can be figured out if you use a little common sense (typical multiple choice)

    Easy morning with the wife. Enjoying some mellow jazz, drinking good coffee, and burning 2 year old oak.

    This afternoon, I'll do one more round of raking leaves, and blowing the leaves off the lawn. (This one last time!) Then, if I have time, dig out the Christmas lights and bling up the house.

    Frosty morning on our walk with an awesome sunrise. I didn't have a camera or phone with me. Looks like we are in for a clear cold spell for a few days. I have lots to do today so I am NOT going to watch football unless Seattle is playing. (Maybe) FHC is going to be ignored as well (OK - maybe I will just peek once or twice) Everyone have a great day.

    Good for you at least trying. Injections can take many forms so if they don't get it right right away, give them another chance. Also rhizotomy is not out of order as that can help many.

    I can easily relate to the back pain as I was injured in 1984. Things have been a bit tough...

    Only if you're hourly. If you're salary, then that's a big old kick in da nutz. That is unless they let you back them and you can effectively gain a couple days off.
