Good evening, radu...we print checks at 1pm on Wednesdays, so the morning is the last time to get any corrections or missed time entered. I actually finished on time...got all the answers to questions I sent out. I got home about 9p and finished the work I took home about 1a. Then I crashed, hard. d:o)

Is your weather back to normal? It’s 41 now, with sprinkles, and now they say freezing rain tonight. *sigh*

I figured you must have been zonked when you didn’t get back to the Canteen last night. It sounded like you had more than your hands full.
At least you got everything done on time. Way to go!

You’re quite a bit warmer than we are! It’s 28 here at the moment. BUT, we have a nice warm spell coming up and will be in the 60s over the weekend. WOOHOO!
We’ll be back in the 30s for highs in a week, though, so the roller coaster ride is far from over. LOL!

Hi Janey.
I was watching old Aussie Top Gear tonight and was ROTFLMAO when they showed an old 1976 car commercial that was “Football,..meatpies,...kangaroo’s and Holden cars...”

LOL

I hope you don’t have the flu! Maybe aspirin and a good night’s rest will help you feel better by morning. *Hugz*
