    • Tucker all squared away and back sleeping on the couch in my office!
    • Interview at 9a for a job I really don't want; but.......I really hate the culture where I'm at!
    • <<Lou>>......feel better!
    • Moving sucks. Period. Hope you find a physician soon!
    • Steph - hope they're enjoying Ireland! #BucketList destination for me for sure!

    Cheers,
    Skip

    Mornin' BBB

    Go n-éirí do thuras leat!
    Sounds annoying, Skip. Good thing you have Tucker for support.
    Speaking of work stuff...work has been uber werky. Practice manager has been giving me crap about me expressing some frustration about the relocation of items that I need quick access to and subsequently my tech or myself cannot find in a timely fashion when needed. It seems like stuff is getting moved around every week. She is a great gal, and we generally get along great, but without me the clinic would fold (I am on a month to month contract and can pretty much go anywhere, anytime, for any reason) and I think maybe she should be trying NOT to make my job harder.

    Good morning.

    Cecilia: So do you like working from home?
    Me: I hate it.
    C: Oh thank G-d.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    One positive side to getting older is getting to the place where you can just walk away from an unpleasant work situation.

    Speaking of unpleasant, we walked back to the car after buying out the entire contents of our local Costco and found that some jerk put a dent in the right rear fender of our CRV. No note - of course - and no witnesses. So now I have an appointment at a body shop for an estimate. It isn't a large dent - about the size of my hand. I know the other car was white; a smear of paint marks the crease in the middle. Makes me grind my teeth when I think of it.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • DHS does a lot of good stuff, but I can only imagine the political environment. Good luck Skip. Working in a hardware store in Wilmington, NC could be appealing.
    • Lou, maybe you should have the conversation with the Practice Mgr. you had with us.
    • That's a bummer Dave and I'm planning on going to Costco today.
    • A hi and a wave to the Ladies of BBB. Find a Doc Kelly.

    Morning BBB

    Snort Lou. You shouldn't be working today...get well soon.

    No big plans today. Spanish class then a trip to Sam's. There is a fundraiser at a pool bar serving breakfast and mimosas but by the time Spanish class is over it will so hot and I don't really get in a pool at a bar so unless it's windy today I think we will pass.

    Dennis, I assume you meant me and not Lou. And yeah, I did, and almost made her cry.
    Too funny Lou!

    Yeh, I meant you Lee. It sounds like she got the message. It's always nice to be holding the trump card.

    Good Afternoon,
    PT this morning, they really know how to get shoulder aching, I'm still not allowed to move it.
    I hate having to look for things when I get ready to do something, does not happen as often since DMIL is no longer in house.
    Kelly, when is doctor appointment?
    Hope you are feeling better soon Lou.
