  1. You know where my pm is. Here if you need me.
  2. Sleepy Time tea from Celestial Seasonings has no caffeine. Is Camomile and mint I think, both of which promote calm and relaxation, as does the hot drink itself. I am sure other brands have similar compositions.
  3. Me too, but how does Keith screw Shiro silly here and still be an virgin down the road?
  4. We do put a hurt on the wine cellar occasionally.
  5. 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?
  6. Hit send too soon. Enjoy the improved water pressure.
  7. Problem with that is I am the local horse ambulance, and they frequently choose 3 am to colic and need emergency transport to the nearest equine clinic. 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.
  8. Has been one foot in front of the other for 2 weeks now. Slow going for sure, but still moving. Just wish peeps would stop would stop tossing things out for me to trip over.
  9. Thank you! Gets better! 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!
  10. 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.
  11. Hon, that ain't doing for yourself. You do know the definition of stress right? Its the confusion created when the mind over rides the body's basic desire to strangle the shit out of some asshole that desperately needs it.
  12. Have you done something for yourself today @kbois? Gotta refuel if you are going to be able to give.
  13. I didn't know I used to work with your hubby! Iou What K said. Also, remember to get enough rest and do something for yourself every day. Illigetmi non carborundum.
  14. Soon?
  15. If only that's how it worked, but any one who spends time at a stable knows these simple truths: Flies can get into cars/trucks with all windows closed. Fly paper, while it does trap many, grabs more people than flies Once into a car, flies will never leave voluntarily, short of setting off an insecticide bomb inside Smell of said bomb lingers for weeks, but does not deter more flies from moving in.
  16. The weather geeks are cursing at us today. They are using the 4 letter "s" word!
  17. Courage and bravery is not a lack of fear, its being afraid and moving forward, doing what needs doing, inspite of the fear. You my friend, show courage every single day.
  18. Had to put my horse down last night, and the kid seems to think i should have tried harder. If I seem a tad off, that's why.
  19. Kids! Just when they grow up and get fun again they move out!
  20. I use yarn left over from other projects to knit fingerless gloves. No real pattern needed, just comfortably snug k1p1 strip 10 rows at the wrist, change up needles 1 size and knit 1 row p 1 row to needed body length then k1p1 10 rows and bind off. Sew side seam leaving gap for your thumb. No dividers between fingers make em more comfy when typing, knitting, etc.
  21. On a not very surprising note, I ran into the gal that handles our feed order at a show recently. She started by saying how much the feed shop misses me, then said how feed order is never in on time, never accurate, and that they frequently need to send a second delivery out to fix things. My reply was something on the lines of sorryvit has gotten harder for you, but oh well, quess boss will have to get used to more delivery fees.
  22. The real bitch is I have been at this barn for 20 years, and know what a great place it has always been up until last spring when boss hired a hand that used to work the thoroughbred track. Key words are used to. If he were so great he would still be there.
  23. Those peeps have already gotten an anonymous call, but I have not yet seen anyone investigating.
  24. I had been the barn manager for more than 10 years. I quit 3 months back when the latest batch of twits decided they didn't need to listen to me. I understand it is hard to find legal labor willing to shovel manure, but let's be reasonable.
