And then there's me trying to keep the peace between those 2 who can be hot heads... 3 is not a good number

 Your friends need to grow up. What do they think they are? High schoolers? ~rolling eyes with a scowl~ They don't have to like each other. They just need to get the work done. Period. Even Switzerland felt its patience getting smaller and smaller. Good luck! 🍀

Hey Nick!  Hope your weekend was good! 

Thanks, Terry.   The hunky business neighbor came to the store today.  I'd say it was a good weekend.

Wait. Hangover?! Must have been some party. 

Last, but not least, I'm sorry about your friend. Birthday at the hospital? That sucked!   Good thing you guys went there to cheer him up.

You said you loved the movie, and I assumed Owen (the dad) was the reason. My bad.  

Here's a movie I think you might like, Nicky.

They're not rebels, they are oppressed people fighting for their freedom

Paying taxes doesn't make you oppressed.

Yep, I definitely need the heavy artillery for when Drew's goons come "tax collecting."

Did you forget I have an army of spider-bots?

But paying taxes without representation does.

The people of Texas are represented by me!

Intriguing.  Tell me more about this.

Pfft! As if you had competition.  Well, he's over 50, gray hair, massive chest you could use as a pillow, and he always ask me how I'm doing. ~sigh~

Thanks Terry did you make the beef recipe?

Yes I did!  It was lovely and easy to make.  I did alter one ingredient and one instruction, however.

1500 words today.  That's nearly 2600 for two days.  I've done better, but I'll take what I can get.  Night everyone.

I wasn't aware you read my work.  I only got 1,000 words yesterday, but they were solid scenes, so I'm feeling better about it.

I haven't read your work yet, but do intend to start.  I was commenting on the fact you are obviously off to a good start on you new project, and also intend to read it when you finish.

I am so proud of myself 

I was doing a bit of organizing and found a book I bought for my sister a few months ago (grabbed it while it was on sale). I had totally forgotten about it and now it’s wrapped and ready for her birthday 

crossing fingers you have recovered from the hangover

Hangover is finished!  Today's projects are all cooking.  I finally found a store that sells Masa Harina, so now I can try my hand at tamales and cornbread.

Group work at Uni sucks. You have my sympathies

I agree about group work.  Those assignments were the absolute bane in my university studies.  I'm sure the instructors do this more for their own benefit, than the students' benefits.

Sawasdee Khrup Terry. We're doing okay. Yesterday I put up the outside Christmas decorations and set the tree and added the lights. Mum is puttering at adding its decorations. Tomorrow we'll start baking cookies.

Sawasdee Khrup Dugh and Mom! 🙏 That's good to hear.  I will try my hand at baking cookies this year for Christmas.  I still have to buy a fake tree and then find where I stored my Christmas decorations before I start to decorate.

I volunteer to train the new recruits for you Spike!  I'll make sure they are ready for battle in any position you assign them to.
