Good morning Uncle Moe!  (if you are still in the room)!  Jen will love your e-mail, she was worried she was too long winded for you yesterday, but by the looks of things, both of you will pen some long-uns!  How great!  I told her I will just get her her own screen name so she can attend from work when she has a minute!  She asked how I keep up with the posts, I just laughed and walked away, I'm still laughing, if you don't park it in front of the monitor on busy days, may be better to just throw in the towel and skim the top for goodies!

Uncle Jim, good morning!  Heard about the coffee maker, Jen chuckled thinking of me, we have a spare coffee maker at all times in the original box waiting for the other to fail! I don't drink as much as the old days though, starting to affect sleep (what sleep?).  When I was famous for staying in my in-house office way too late most of the nights on those 6 day work weeks, I had a thirty cup Westbend with a spigot (seriously), Jen called it my 'vat'!

Retired and loving it:

Good morning people.  Mari, I'm really happy to see you being more like your old self.  I hate when people get sick and unhappy.  I'm also glad I didn't have a job where you called me in the middle of the night.  I would have probably been grumpy.

Good Morning Max and Jim.. I am here fighting not to fall asleep, is dead in here, so we are hardly getting many calls.

jim.. believe me, I get my share of grumpy people, jealous wives that ask me what is what I am doing calling her husband at this time of the night. I just roll my eyes, and with the sweetest smile I answer.. "he is on call for his company, and I have an emergency to report" sometimes that calms them down.

And on full moon.. I get my share of wackos!

 Good morning Mari, Mo, Suku , Max and Jim!  I am having a cup of coffee and then heaading out to PA for a brieff visit with my son.  He is renting a housr with 3 other college guys.  the house is supposed to be furnished, but they don't have a kitchen table or chairs, so I am driiving out and back with a set for them.

I am trying to get Andy involved with the group, so he get familiar with people that he will be cruising with. but we would have to share one computer and that will be a problem..lol.. cause I get territorial with the computer.

Good morning Moe!  If I had left well enough alone and just let our 'kids' back in from outside and hit the pillow again, maybe another hour of sleep, but I had to check on my friends here this a.m.  What better way to wake up, huh?-like last night and most others, if I want to sleep, I'll wait 'til we put a movie in the DVD player!!!  Jen will ask me in the a.m. 'wasn't that a good movie'?  I say 'what movie'?,  ..........she laughs and just walks away

Hi Mari.  I used to get calls during the night but it would be because there would be a utility emergency where people had to go down into confined spaces.  I had to check and see if they would have any air to breathe while they were down there.  My wife never got suspicious of the calls; just complained about calls in the middle of the night.  Also got called once when an ammo bunker blew, but that was definitely not normal operations.

Hey there buddy... Yes, my fingers can get a little happy on the keyboard.. lol. I know for one, when I go to take my nap after working every night I have to catch up on all the chats.. I miss alot. Most of the time I do get to check it out and see what I may have missed but I just might not make any additional comments. Do you work this weekend?

Good morning, Barb.  I don't have a kitchen table or chairs.  Does that mean you're going to come visit?

 Mari, L'm so glad you are feeling better.  I was worried aboutt you.

Good morning Barb!  I think the young college guys figure if there's a fridge with a dehydrated tomato and a half bottle of water in it they consider the place fully furnished!  How exciting for them though, especially when good 'ol mom helps out! 

I hear ya Uncle Jim.. I know how it is.. I have been counting for what seems like the longest of time. Now I look at the clock and im super excited... ***grinning from ear to ear***

Doing well.  Woke up thinking I only had 9 weeks left.  It's bad when the first thing you think of is how many days you have left.

Goodmorning to ya Barb... Wishing you have a safe trip this morning.

Good morning, Barb.  I don't have a kitchen table or chairs.  Does that mean you're going to come visit?

Sure Jim!  You'll have to wait until I find another set on freecycle.  It's a Yahoo group where people post things they want to get rid of or are looking for something.  It's to prevent things from ending up in landfills.

I will probably have to stay overnight though!

You have a new coffee maker, TV trays and dumplings, I think her son and roomates have found a new dorm!

lol, that's so funny because I get like that too.. It cracks me up also because sometimes its something that I really wanted to see.
