Son is doing ok now? Lysol is good. We don't want you getting sick too. ((HUGS))

[MeekMom]

aw, sorry about that Mrs. Nooseman!
Not good.
But glad you have the next 3 days off! Rest up & have fun hon! :)

[MeekMom]

Yep, Craig’s all better! Nope, when I get sick I really get sick. & usually we share our germs! LOL But we’ll have none of that. :)

[AZamericonnie]

Love your tag DYngbld.

I do believe you have both “aspired” & inspired” with your long standing service to this great nation & eternal gratitude to you for it!

[AZamericonnie]

I love the Lysol.:)

The pop up bleach wipes are a must have for me.

Hope your sonboy is feeling better & glad you didn’t get a virus for Christmas!

Sunflower........ummm, I don’t think so. You still have snow? we had 10 inches over Christmas, and now today’s high is -3.

Your training coordinator fell down on the job - finding the project codes is actually a snap.

And charging by tenths is to be avoided at all costs. That really is too hard. If we get together any time soon, I’ll show you how we handle that...

Our snow got sweated away with 60º weather.

Sorry to hear you’re so cold. It’s starting to look like God is punishing Algore with cold and snow everywhere.

Before the day was done I found them and was able to move the ones that didn’t apply to the left and only have the ones that fit show up on the pull-down. I’ll ship you the email that Mr.T sent that said take it to the .1 of an hour.

Blessing to you all in 2009.

And to you, too.

Whatever you choose to do in 'retirement', it's important to do something. Most of us are too young at that point to just stop and do nothing. I'm with a Defense Contractor, I have friends who went to work as DA civilians, and I've had several acquaintances start their own businesses.

The key is to do something - anything - and it's best if it's something you like and can have fun with.

Finally - now is not too early to be thinking about what 'it' is going to be.
