    @cadajineh- that is absolutely gorgeous and sounds amazing!

    @bethanie0825 - I'm glad you're starting to feel better!

    Fall is tougher. I gain and hour of work. Spring I lose and hour of work so that makes me happy. 😊

    Watching the clock go from 0159 to 0200 and back to 0100 is soul crushing lol. We always work the time changes on my rotation

    I'm not sure how, but I always work the time changes as well. I guess it's better than it used to be. I used to end up on the fall rotation but not the spring rotation. :smile:

    Hmmm, that's probably why I like the fall time change too. It gives me an hour extra to do all my site checks AND I get paid an extra hour.
    Hubby & I are doing some loss prevention training for a large store (Canadian Tire) here tomorrow and then I have to work a full night shift - :s I am gonna be dead tired on Tuesday when I get back home to sleep.... and then I have a ton of stuff to do in that day before another patrol shift that night. Taking hubby along on Tuesday night to refresh his City Patrol training for when we get back from the China trip. He is in seasonal retirement from his window cleaning business so he flips over to Security during the winter. One of my co-workers just found out his wife is very sick (possible lung cancer and they can't operate due to heart attack or stroke likelihood.) He is taking compassionate leave for a while, so we will be working around that. Crossing my fingers for them.

    A smattering of snow today. Nothing that stuck to the road but enough to look beautiful. :smile:

    Missouri here. We've only seen a few flurries so far, and I'm fine if it stays that way, lol!

    Finally restarting Krav Maga lessons after hurting my back over the summer and packing on an extra 20 lbs that I REALLY didn't need. Hoping it'll give me a boost in getting back on track!

    I am a cop on the midnight shift. I am happy I found this thread. It should help pass the time when things are quiet.

    Ok. If you’re going to feed your dog a RAW diet, at least grind the bones. Going to surgery for an obstruction but it could have been a perforation.

    @sufferlandrian That's awesome, yay!!!!

    Happy December! My hubs brought all of the Christmas stuff into the house and set the tree up for me. Tomorrow is decoration time!!!

    Yeah! Another holiday is done. I'll be glad when the next two are over and we can get back to the usual routine. There's something about a predictable shift that helps.

    The meet-the-parents trip went kind of amazing well! So yeah!

    I don't think I'm gonna put up any Christmas stuff this year, I just don't feel like it, tbh. My apartment is still mostly a pile of boxes from when I moved in, lol.

    Got my Christmas lights up but that’s about it. I think it’s going to be a pretty low key Christmas this year. The kids didn’t even start asking for stuff until December. :smile:

    My stepson hasn't asked for anything yet. We have no idea what to get him.

    My daughter saw packages arrived and informed me that her christmas present has arrived. I hope I don't get home and she know that because it's open. :smile:

    Probably inevitable, but it is sad. I've been on this thread a loooong time and through quite a few jobs, lol.
