Popular Post Kitt Posted December 17, 2020 Popular Post Posted December 17, 2020 Why??? Biggest storm NJ has seen in 4 years. Governor urging peeps to stay off the roads. Hubby's place of employment closed due to the snow, but he drives an hour so would have stayed home anyway. Good day to sleep in, right? Nope. 6 am and a customer starts texting to arrange a pick up for daughters new horse. Then she gets chatty besides. So here I am, wide awake more than an hour before sunrise! Yes, I keep farmers hours. No, I no longer function as barn manager, and no longer need to be on the farm for am feedings. Why in the world would I want to visit at this hour??? Rant over. I now return you to your regularly scheduled morning routine. 1 4 1

Still 1/2 hr before sun up here and a second customer rings, irritated I have not yet answered her text I found at 11:30 last night. Yes I get up early. That usually means I hit the hay early too. Found her text on what for me is a "midnight" potty run. She actually sent it at 11 but apparently I slept thru the ring cycle. I was always taught calls between 8 pm and 8 am were reserved for lovesick teens and emergencies only. Moving your horse next week does not qualify for either! Edited December 17, 2020 by Kitt 5

I now return you to your regularly scheduled morning routine. Do Not Disturb setting is your best friend. Mine is set from 10p to 8a with five exceptions from my contacts. I used to get woken up at 3am from email notifications. Not anymore. Kitt, enjoy watching the snow from inside. Stay safe and warm. (Took my first shower with the fixed plumbing and new shower head. Tried all 7 settings. Hard to choose between 'stinging hot needles of joy' and 'thundering waterfall of happiness'. I chose the stinging needles of joy 😀) Have a great day everyone! @Mikiesboy enjoy your time off! I see lots of knitting in your immediate future! 1 1 1

Those calls dont bother me at all. 6 am for routine moving can wait till regular hours. You would not call your dentist at 6 am to schedule a cleaning. I deserve the same curtesy. 4
Kitt Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Hit send too soon. Enjoy the improved water pressure. 4

Sorry you have to deal with them Yes, now a days, and until we all start calling people on their rude behavior it will continue to spiral down. I taught my daughter better, as my mother taught me. I am sure you taught your boys better. Why were these "adults" NOT taught? 4

Probably because they have no respect for others and think they are better than others. I am a late night person but at least I don't call or test anyone after 10 pm. I don't even text my sister after 8 pm since I know that she gets up for work at 4:30 am. I show respect. Because if you don't show respect to others then they will not show respect to you. But some people just don't care cause they were never taught. 'Some parents should have never been parents'. 6 1

Fae Briona Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 I've been working from home this week. They're doing cleaning / abatement in the mechanical room so the steam supply has been cut off to the building -- the steam-heated building. 4 1

Sherye Story Reader Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 I have no idea why I am so cold! It seems like it is warmer outside than in my mobile home! But it is 4 degrees warmer in here than outside. I even have my heater on and the oven door open with heat coming out of it to warm the house up but it seems like my right side will not get warm at all. HURRY UP WARMTH! This old lady is cold and when she gets cold then she is hot a happy person! They always say when mama ain't happy then no one is happy! I am wondering if that is true if someone came around me! Unless someone came over here to warm me up then I might be happy! That way it kills 2 bird's with one stone! I AM STILL WAITING ON THAT SOMEONE! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 3
