Time "Well" Spent

Oh yes, the holidays. I've had the last week off of work and I'm sure we can all rant about the great way's we would spend that wonderful time. Let's take a trip down memory lane on how I've managed to spend this valuable time - shall we?

Saturday (Dec. 22)
Sunday
Monday - Polish off the xmas shopping, make a couple of gifts (I'll share photo's at a later date), and head over to mom's place. Do traditional stuff with mom and brother.

Tuesday - What else?

Tuesday Morning - Start filling under the weather.

Tuesday Evening to present - In BED!!! This sucks.

I've finally started getting a little appetite back today and was actually able to stir around - some. I was going to go to a new years party tomorrow, but that's not going to happen now. If I'm awake, I'll have to settle for Dick Clark (or whoever).

Well more notes later, I'm starting to feel weak and light headed again.

Happy New Year's folks.

Ho Ho Ho

Here's both a negative and positive post at the same time - if that could possibly be done.

For the negative side, I saw a new "proud parent" bumper sticker the other day. I'm sure it's not new,but it read "I am the proud parent of a Presidential physical fitness award winner." Come on folks, dispense with all these "proud parent" bumper stickers. What really counts is how you conduct yourself around your children. Showing them a sense of well being and belonging, and actually teaching them a set of moral standards. I think that would go a lot farther than a bumper sticker.

On the positive side, it's time to head off to mom's place. It's about a 40 minute drive. Got to load the car with Christmas goodies first.

No matter how you spend this time of year, whether or not there is any religious significance involved, I hope the time you spend will be fulfilling.

Cheers!

Free!

I am FREE.
At least for a few weeks anyway.
What's next?
Don't know.
Oh wait.
I do know . . .
Shopping for xmas gifts.
And making some.
It's that time of year.
Only two weeks left.
OK folks.
Gotta roll with it!
The rush is on.

Quick Note

And it's Friday I tell you! Yeah, but I bet you already knew that. Well there's news to post, but not taken much time tonight to spill my guts. See, here's the deal. I have my final exam in Statics and Dynamics next Tuesday at 12:30pm. Here's the good news between now and then - 1) Holiday Party tomorrow night as part of a Meetup event, 2) Work is having their annual holiday potluck on Monday (I'm a sucker for potlucks), and 3) I'm taking Monday afternoon and Tuesday off to study. Now . . . the bad news between now and then - 1) I've got to study!, 2) There's other things I'd rather be doing this weekend, and 3) I'll miss the annual Luncheon with the top dog at some swank restaurant Tuesday due to my Final Exam! This is free - swank food folks. Unfair! Oh well. I'll live. Maybe they can get me a to-go box. Hmmmm.

Otherwise, it's off to study land. At least I'll be having a little fun this weekend to offset the pain. Not all bad ya know.

Sweet dreams folks.
