As a lifelong "healthy insomniac" with no biorhythms left, I'm a firm believer that EVERYONE should get to enjoy siesta!
A 1½ hour nap, midday, is a game changer!

PRICELESS!
Come see the offshore oilfield and see how a 12 day project turns into 20+ days...
Pray it never goes union, or gas will be $10 per gallon.

@Wat_Tyler?

 

[Lilianna23]

Cook raw beets by grilling them.

I could try that. Do you peel them first? Slice? Or grill them whole?

 

[Lilianna23]

Yes.


We require daily.


And doughnuts . . . .

Probably best if she brings the donuts?

 

[Lilianna23]

I can confirm that. There is an old barn, if it is still standing, that has a hole in the side of it. I was clearing the shotgun that I inherited from my grandfather. It was a Marlin pump from the early 1900s that is now recommended not to be used.

It feels like there's more to this story...

 

[Lilianna23]

I wonder sometimes how I didn't.

Well, when you spend your days weasel wrangling, I wonder, too!

 

[Lilianna23]

Bossy wench!!!

Yep!

 

[Lilianna23]

Even when taxes go “down”, they still go up.

Yep! They never stay down!

 

[Lilianna23]

Does wine, beer and liquor fall under the “fermented food” family?

If so, I’m a fan!

I like wine, especially champagne! Not so much a fan of beer.

 

[Lilianna23]

Wait, I thought fricking and romping was discontinued? But traipsing is OK?

I’m so confused.

I heard frolicking and romping was disallowed by the thread originator. However, there appears to be a subversive group of frolickers here.

 

[Lilianna23]

Ice like that breaks off a lot of branches.

We've had some epic ice storms here. The branches breaking from trees loaded with ice sounds like rifle fire!

 

[Lilianna23]

It was a surprise find..... I was so excited

I love those! It's always a treasure hunt at Costco!

 

[Lilianna23]

Is lollygagging ok?

I thought we could only lollygag between the hours of 1 - 4 PM!

 

[Lilianna23]

Everyone I know who is married to a nurse says they're brutal. Zero sympathy.
"That will teach you to cut yourself!"...

We're really quite wonderful!

Now turn around, drop trou, and bend over so I can give you this shot!

Me, too! How come it doesn't happen that way???

 

[Lilianna23]

I love this movie!

 

[Lilianna23]

There will no romping or frolicking when you visit me although I might turn a blind eye to a traipse!

Meanie!

Red wine in the refrigerator!! Are there no depths to which America will not sink? You'll be getting cheese in a can next!

My father had a Zippo lighter in his pocket that was half chewed through by a Homelite XL12 some time in the late 1960's. Mom sewed up the pants and he bought a new lighter.

In my youth, I got REALLY lucky... I'd been running a saw all day long and I hooked my jeans with it, but missed my leg.
Lesson learned: Run the Fkn saw, when you get fatigued and the saw is running you, put the MFr down!

One of my (many) mantras in business was "I'd rather have fewer staff but better staff"
Invest in good people, not just in monetary terms, and they will repay you. Too many board-level people have zero idea of the massive cost in hiring and training up new staff members.

Is it Wat's birthday today? Happy birthday, @Wat_Tyler!

If so, Happy Birthday Wat!
