I doubt the week will be peaceful :rofl:

[Callalily]

6. Good morning MissH!

Sorry to hear about your grandmother.

BEAUTIFUL picture!

And you know that we missed you here last week.

Busy week, but busy is good. My life is so spontaneous, one day I'll have nothing planned and then boom, the week fills up.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

7. Good morning Callalily

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Thank you :hug:

This week filled up out of nowhere, I can tell you that. :rofl: At least I am glad I don't have to work Thursday at the groceries store, I would have hated to miss the book club.

[Callalily]

10. Oh gosh! There should be

no reason to miss book club. Our members are so great, we always have a fantastic time. And it's really interesting peoples take on the book. Everyone comes from such different backgrounds, it does make for lively discussions.

Which reminds me. I'd better get going finishing my book. ;)

[MissHoneychurch]

11. Well

the last time I went (which was also the first time) I had a blast. It was so interesting and so much fun. Interesting also because everyone came from another culture.

This time we are talking about "Balzac and the little chinese seamstress" by by Dai Sijie.

8. MHC! No posts, I thought you might be in jail!

Does this mean your volunteer colleague is still alive and well? And bossing everyone around?

Condolences on the death of your grandmother. But at least she lived long enough to watch a nice grand-daughter grow up.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

9. Good morning JustABozo

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Yeah ... she is still alive ... barely :D She came to my desk Friday and slimed so much, I had to be careful not to slip ....

Thank you :hug:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

12. Good Morning Miss Honeychurch :)

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :pals:

Goodness, that's a full plate. I'm going to be lucky if I do a tenth of that this week.

All is well here, Mom is home from the hospital, and doing much beter. I'm just about ready for work after a longer than normal weekend.

Have a good time at the meet! :D

[MissHoneychurch]

14. Good morning SCE

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Good morning Blue_Tires

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

How are you doing?

I am fine except that I had another argument with the volunteer lady. :mad:

[Blue_Tires]

18. again?? you may want to have a chat with the boss

behind closed doors...


it's not worth your sanity...

[MissHoneychurch]

19. That wouldn't help

Volunteer lady has good standings with the boss.

After over half an hour "That is not possible"(me) "I don't understand that"(her) we found a solution. Of course that means a lot more work for me. But that isn't something that bothers her. As long as she has her will.

[Brewman_Jax]

15. G'day, MissH!

:hi: :hug:

Welcome back! :hi: Glad that you have a life, beats sitting at the computer all night. :woohoo:

Looks like you have a full schedule this week. :P

[MissHoneychurch]

17. Good morning Brewman

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

That is a full schedule?? I thought I could squeeze in a short trip to the U.S. :P :D

[Brewman_Jax]

20. Maybe after work on the weekend

then maybe you could climb the Matterhorn and then go visit Paris.

[Broken_Hero]

21. Today is going okay for now,

dropped son off at school, and hopefully the hot water heater guy will be here soon, we have been without hot water since Thursday :sigh:

Spent a ton of money on fixes last week, I just hope the madness is over with.

Other than that, things are going well.

[MissHoneychurch]

23. Good morning petersond

:wow: I really hope the heater guy is coming today. Without hot water since Thursday????? How did you deal with that :scared:

:hug:

[Broken_Hero]

25. Heating up water on top of our cook stove,

and taking baths/using it for dishes. Guy just called me, hopefully within the next two hours I'll have hot water, :D

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Camping at home

I still remember heating up water when we were camping.

YAY on the heating guy. :thumbsup:

22. Good morning Miss H

Sorry to hear about your grandma. I have one remaining grandparent and she is 86. I hope I have her longevity genes.

Spring is almost here and I'm happy about that. I'm going to help a friend get his driver's license back this morning and for that we have to drive to Cincinnati, Ohio which is about 65 kilometers down the road. It's a big city and I feel like a hayseed when I go down there. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

24. Good morning Tobin

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Thank you :hug: I have now one grandmother remaining, she is turning 85 in October. And she better lives some more years :D

Good luck with your trip to Cincinnati!!! I guess you are not taking the truck :D

[Tobin S.]

26. Nope, we will be heading down that way in my personal vehicle

If we can manage to find our country bumpkin asses around. :) It's a big day for my buddy. He's been without his driver's license for several years, and around where we live being able to drive is a big part of our freedom.

[MissHoneychurch]

28. Oh I know about the freedom and car thing

it is that way in most areas of the U.S. except the big cities with good public transportation. :)

That is what I like about Frankfurt so much. It is a big city, but not too big (about 700.000 inhabitants). And the public transportation here is pretty good.

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

29. Sorry you are so swamped

MissHoneychurch! That's a busy week indeed. I hope Sunday comes faster than you know and you can resume your status as a lazy bum!

:loveya: :hug: :pals:

[Vidar]

30. Good morning MissHoneychurch. I'm glad your social life has had an upturn.
