We got ours put away this weekend. It started with those unseasonably warm temperatures... hitting the 60s (around 18-19 C) in December is just unheard of, so there was no better time to get on the roof and take all the lights down. My son Corbin helped -- at five, there are few things more thrilling than climbing up on the roof! Fortunately no one else was home to question my sanity in allowing him up there for that long, but he really did help with the job [img]smile.gif[/img]

Then we got the main stuff put away on Saturday, and I got the tree disassembled yesterday. We're down to about a dozen things that used to be in a box, but I don't remember which one...

It's all over but the putting away. And the kids' trees -- we let them have small trees in their rooms, which they decorated as they saw fit. We'll leave those up until next weekend.

A long day otherwise. I just figured out that I've been forgetting to bill some of my customers for their annual maintenance, so I've had to go through and recheck all the numbers. Frustrating... but now they're set up so that next year, they'll be automated. [img]smile.gif[/img]

'Morning everybody; well it's back to work for me today. I hope I can shake this headache soon.

Good morning, all. It is 68 degrees, F., here. I saw a couple of teenaged girls jogging in shorts and T-shirts, yesterday. It continues rainy, though, and overcast. Very humid. Variol, try Excedren Migaine. It seems to work the best for my patients.

Bungleau, you were so industrious you might inspire me to at least start taking the ornaments off my tree this week...but then that means finding the spots in the big box where they go...uh.. ok, maybe I'll take the stockings down! [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Cloudy, if that stuff wears off on other people, that's a good thing, right? [img]smile.gif[/img] It should be a comfort to you and others that those last dozen or so things are still sitting upstairs, waiting to be put away. About the best I can say is they've magically moved closer to the stairs...

Urgh! I got to listen to two venting sessions today -- one from a customer upset about one of our folks who's out there doing work for them, and one from the employee involved. Ya know, there are always three sides to every story... his, hers, and the truth [img]smile.gif[/img] I'm going to have to get this one narrowed down by the end of the week. Such fun...

Cloudy and Bungleau

It is only 330 days till you can get away with having the decorations up legitimately again, so why bother? [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

Just installed Morrowind last night, so look out for all my dumb noobie questions on that part of the forum. It was fun visiting that part of the forum. You see people that you have not seen for a while
