Thank you...

Pink wants to know what I'm thankful for.

I'm thankful that I do believe in God. Jesus Christ died on the cross for all. All who receive Him will go to Heaven. I have received Him. I am thankful for my church. We believe the same things. I'm thankful for the unity my church has. We're like family. Sometimes, most of the time I feel closer to those in my church than I do my own family. I'm thankful for a Pastor who is a leader. I've gone to him for different things and he helped me in my Christian walk and with my own family. I'm thankful for God's protection over me. I've gotten into some pretty bad car wrecks and should have been dead when I had the last one. I'm still here able to live on this earth. I'm thankful for life itself, and for the air I breath.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Veteran's Day, to our veterans...

1. My country,' tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing;land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrims' pride, from every mountainside let freedom ring!

2. My native country, thee, land of the noble free, thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills, thy woods and templed hills; my heart with rapture thrills, like that above.

3. Let music swell the breeze, and ring from all the trees sweet freedom's song;
let mortal tongues awake; let all that breathe partake; let rocks their silence break, the sound prolong.

4. Our fathers' God, to thee, author of liberty, to thee we sing;
long may our land be bright with freedom's holy light; protect us by thy might, great God, our King.

Thank you to all our veterans who helped and are helpinng preserve our freedom.

Setting clocks back...

It's that time of year when we set our clocks back an hour. Don't forget to do this. We set our clocks back in the fall and ahead in the spring.

Personally, I don't see why we do this. I understand about daylight and nightlight, but why mess with the time? Why can't we leave well enough alone. There are certain states that don't observe daylight saving time. What is one to do? I just have to go with the flow.

Halloween Lambs...

Websites...

I found out about two websites. One I knew about and one I didn't. The one I knew about is Post Secrets @ postsecret.com and boy is that interesting. People post some pretty intimate stuff there and its interesting. You no longer have to hide your secrets. I haven't sent in a secret, or have I? I'll let you decide. Really I haven't, my secrets are very private. They put new stuff on it every Sunday.

The other website I found out about is MyDeathSpace. That website has people who have had MySpace, but have passed on. It even tells you how they died. That website is @ mydeathspace.com

If you click on the links you can get there from here.

I break for lambs that jump rope...

Little lamb's exercise class

Newfoundland...

My parents used to have a place in Newfoundland Canada. It looks just like what you see in this video and brought back memories from when I went with them.

These people never got enough of the sun. If it looked like the sun was going to come out the people would get dressed in summer clothes in hopes of catching some sun.

Contrary to popular belief, they do not live in igloos, and they do not ride in horse and buggies.

They do get A LOT if snow.

Here we go again!!!

The clown has added me to his blog.

Here we go again! He must really like me. He lies about me even. I'm too pure for him. I don't use bad language and I have manners. He says I wrote to him using bad language to get him to add me to his blog roll. He's been wanting to add me for whatever reason. He has no manners and uses foul language all the time. I won't complain about it this time.

He even put adding me to his blog to a vote. The majority voted no. I even voted no. Dycko never does what he's told. He decided to add me. He even has me using foul language to get added to his blog. That wasn't me talking. Someone pretended to be me and use bad language. Any time you see me swearing its really not me. It's someone pretending to be me. I don't talk like that at all. I've even added him to my blog. I don't know about this, so we'll see what happens.

Work and clocks...

Boss lady is a real character. It bothers her if someone looks at the clock too much. It bothers me too, but I let it go. I know how BORING our job is. We have a woman in the morning who looks at the clock A LOT! She's always the first one to let us know its break time. She's the first one who goes on break. In fact one time she announced it was break time, or was it lunch time? No, I think it was break time, she went on break and we didn't follow at this particular time. She was going somewhere and noticed we didn't follow her. She came back all hysterical like and told us again, "You crazy people, it's break time! I told you that already! Now take your break!" We all went on break. At lunch time that day, she said it was lunch time. Boss Lady told me to go before the other one has a heart attack. I went.

We work with someone who has autism in the afternoon. He was looking at his watch every few seconds. Boss Lady noticed this and asked him where he had to go. He has a certain amount of time he has to work. He has no other place to go and we have clocks he can look at to see what time it is. She took his watch away. He was very upset about that. She also mentioned we have clocks for him to look at if he wants to know what time it is.

I have a tendency to look at the clock too, when the woman I'm working with the woman who checks the clock every few seconds. It make the day drag.

Yesterday, Boss Lady decided she was going to unplug the clocks at my table and at her table so no one could look to see what time it is. She said this yesterday morning that she would unplug the clocks that afternoon. I was thinking she's only kidding around or she'll forget. I also thought if it was going to happen, she'd do it after I left. Nope, neither happened. She did remember to unplug the clocks when I was there in the afternoon. I don't know what the time watcher will do when she can't tell us its break time.

I work with a bunch of loonies.

Do you remember the woman I refer to as Truck Driver/Sailor? She is now a manager and when she gets upset about something WATCHOUT!!! It's like cats are fighting. She'll just be complaining about something. It's good to get it out and not hold back, and she really lets out! Let me tell you!

New Post...

This is a new post. I'll use this when I can't think of anything to say. That's the case now.

Help!!!

I can't seem to get this image in my header. Can anybody out there help me? I may want to add one more word, or maybe not. I don't know if it should be as is or Little Lamb's Place or Space. What do you all think?

School...

At one time at school I knew who the teachers were. This is when I first started the Office Skills Technology class. I stopped going for about 2 years because work got in the way. Things changed at work and I started going to school again. My favorite teacher was there at the beginning. After I came back she told me how to get back into the classes. One day during class at night everybody was saying goodbye to her. She was going to another branch of the school. I was dumbfounded.

Yes there were and are other teachers. She was one of the few who really knew how to help me. She talked to me at my level. I learned from her. She taught me things about Microsoft Office I never knew. I was very sad to see her leave. I had no idea she would be leaving. We said goodbye. Actually she was saying good bye to the whole class.

There is this other teacher who was trying to help the students with their questions. I ended up liking her. I did get over my favorite teacher. I never really forgot her. I would think of the old days every so often.

I go into class tonight and ask my second favorite teacher to help me. She did. She showed me how to do what I needed to do. I went back to some more school work. I had another question and was looking for my second favorite teacher and saw someone sitting at the teacher's desk. As I was approaching the desk, someone said hi to me. I noticed it was my long lost favorite teacher. I was so glad to see her. She came back! We got caught up. I lead a boring busy life and she leads an interesting life.

Now I have my 2 favorite teachers at night and they can help me with my school work.

I just thought I'd share that with you.

Jobs...

Just a quick note before I'm off to work. Yesterday my supervisor's boss showed up. We give all our complaints about working to him. He accepts what we say and understands and helps us work through. He asked me how my vacation was and what I did. I told him I relaxed and he said "Now that's what a vacation is for." I also told him I went to school and told him I'm taking Office Skills Technology. I told him I'm almost done and now I'm in a simulated job. I have a pretend office and am working in it through a book.

We got on the subject of him and I talking about my qualifications after I'm finished with school. I plan to be done by May. He's going to talk to me about me having an office job with the company I work for. If I do get a job with my company that means I wouldn't have to go job hunting and I get to keep my benefits.

I rather stay with the company I'm with. They know how I work and I know how they work. I've been with them almost nine years.

And to think I was going to stop blogging. Hogwash! I had nothing to say! Hogwash!

You've got to check out Ruela's blog. It's awesome. He's an artist and does good work Check him out here.

He did me.

Back to work...

I went back to work today. I HATE TO STAND ALL DAY!!!! I have a stand up job and have to stand all day. Other than that it was ok. I had lots of energy from being on vacation for two weeks. I was in good spirits. At work I normally find the fault in everything.

When I went on vacation I was working 40 hours a week. Previous to that they cut my hours down to 35. I was ok with that and liked it. I got 5 hours more of sit down time. Then I went back to the 40 hours a week. My supervisor made that decision all on her own. Someone had gotten laid off and was brought back to work. Well, my supervisor's boss wasn't too happy about it, so the one who was brought back was laid off again. I'm back to my 35 hours a week.

I'm going to enjoy my free hour. I like getting home early, even if it is only an hour.

Another good thing about it is I get to go to school an hour earlier. I go to school 2 times a week. On my day off and one day during my work week. On the one work day I get one more hour of schooling which will help.

Oh, and you know what? We have to work on our day off to get Thanksgiving off. I think that stinks. That's what one gets for working for a non profit organization.

Ponderings...

First, before I go into my ponderings, I would like to tell you about my experience at Hyundai today. I did go and had some work done on my Elantra. I was looking at the Hyundai Sonnata and a salesman came out asking if I needed any help. I told him what I wanted and he said it cost so much. There was an ad in the paper that was about 2 or 3 thousand dollars cheaper. I didn't gripe about the price since I wasn't buying one today. Griping about how much I have to pay will be dad's job when the time comes. Besides I have a trade in that's in good running order, it may have a scratch or two, but these guys try and make all they can, so I figure I can do the same. I'm just following their example.

I asked about the trip computer and it will tell me how many miles it took me to get from point a to point b. That was a disappointment. I want it to tell me how much gas I have left. It'll only do that on the more expensive model. Well I want it on the car I want. It doesn't come with what I want. Even if I don't get the trip computer, I still want the car. It's a 5 star car. It's a safe car, and if you knew my driving record you'd wonder why I still drive.
___________________________________________________

Now for my ponderings.

You know all the mini food that is for us to eat? Mini m&m's, mini muffins, snacks like that? You know, smaller food. Anything with "mini" in front of it, is smaller. Small food. I have an idea. Why don't we make smaller dollar bills and smaller coins, mini money and pay for it with that? These are the kinds of things that go through my mind sometimes.

If you don't comment on both things I'll post the one you don't comment on again until you do.

I do have a cute post somewhere on here that I can post when you guys think its time to post again and I can't think of anything to say. I just have to remember to post it.

My Future car, hopefully...

Hyundai Sonata

I like Hyundai's an awful lot. I have a Hyundai Elantra and love it! Mine is crimson red. Red is my favorite color. One day I decided I wanted a Hyundai Sonata. It's a slightly bigger car and I like the way it looks. To me, its a classy car. It comes with different options. I want the trip computer. I'm going to get a price on it when I get my 30,000 mile checkup tomorrow morning.

I had a used car with a trip computer in it and it told me how much gas I used and how far I went and I thought that was neat. It told me how much gas I had left and stuff like that. To me that's a neat toy.

Dad says to always buy a car on the lot. That way you can negotiate the price. I'm not looking to buy yet, but that's something to put in the back of my mind.

Also I read someplace that you should never let the car salesperson know how much your monthly payments will be. You should walk out of there witb the whole price you'll be owing them. I made the mistake of telling one salesperson how much I could spend, which wasn't a bad idea, because Hyundai was very fair with me and took good care of me. I'm planning on staying with Hyundai for life.

One thing that's never happened to me is I got money back for the second Hyundai I purchased for being a loyal customer.

I don't know when I'm going to buy this car. I'm planning on when the time comes to trade in my Elantra.

Who amI trying to kid???

I can't leave any of you. I think it was Pink that has me convinced about not leaving you all. I'd miss you too much. I started to miss you after Pink posted.

I will blog when I have something to say.

I go back to work on Tuesday.

Maybe I'll tell you about the car I want to eventually buy one day.

Taking a Break...

I'm thinking of taking a break from blogging. I never can think of anything to write about. I always end up asking my loyal readers what I should write about. It shouldn't be that way. I may stop by your blogs and see how everything is. If anyone wants to keep in touch, just email me.
