Wasting Time...

Well, the plumber & pipefitter union auditor is paying me a visit this morning...We have only been visited twice previously in the twenty two years that I've worked here. Once in 1990 and not again until 2004. Then they hit again in 2007 and then, today. They seem to be picking up the pace on plumbing shops! Sure sign that they are scrambling to make sure they've squeezed every last cent out of us....WELL! My reports are correct so Good Luck Chuck! They've always been correct...geez. I can hear him clicking away on his laptop from the office next to mine...I had everything stacked and waiting for him to go through. He had wanted me to summarize all the hours and amounts for him...What? Do his job FOR him? Don't think so...have fun!!
SO, while I await the outcome, I sit at my computer and play around with photos.
This is our William from yesterday. Can you believe he'll be 13 on Saturday??? He's a sweetie...
Well, guess I'll go make our lunch...Hope you all are having a better morning than I am.....click, click, click.....Hahaaaa.......
UPDATE ON AUDIT at 12:19PM: We ACED another one! Oh Yeah!

Depressed.....

Love this....Happy Wednesday folks!

Happy Wednesday!

Brenda's Photo Challenge (Books & Reading)

I Love books...All sorts of books! I have bookshelves all over the house filled with books...but do I read them??Hahaaa...Almost...all of them! You can never have too many.
With this photo, I just added a little texture in Photoshop. THAT took me almost an hour!! I rarely add textures to my photos so there was quite a lot of gnashing of teeth...Hahaaa...but I finally got it to work.
Thanks Brenda for this challenge! Just reminds me that if you don't USE it...you LOOSE it!
For more fun shots, go HERE. If they haven't posted their photos yet, keep checking back...they will. Have a great weekend!

Newest Model!

I SWEAR! If gas prices don't start going DOWN...this is how we all are going to be traveling in the future! Doesn't look half bad though...You've got your kitchen fully loaded, a place to sleep behind the storage cabinets, a supply of beverages and your propulsion method runs on grain and hay. Hubby and I may be looking for one of these soon....
Hope you're staying cool on this Thursday....It's been raining here everyday since the weekend! Loving it! Have a super day Guys!

Happy Nat'l Fried Chicken Day!!

If you KNOW me, then...you Know this is my BESTEST most FAB-A-LOUS meal to make...Ever! Yes folks, it's National Fried Chicken Day here in America! I kid you Not! Go Here. This photo is from another time that I fried up some of the tasty bird...Nothing better than fried chicken, gravy and mashed potatoes...maybe some corn on the cob for another side dish...Sweetened Iced tea with a big wedge of lemon...Nothin' Better folks! Try it this weekend!
This is Buttermilk fried chicken...need the recipe, go Here.
Well, It's been a weird week, and fast! Two more days off coming up at least! That's always nice. Hubby and I haven't planned anything special so I guess it'll be another "Surprise Me" kind of weekend. Hope you all have a safe and peaceful one...Or rowdy, whatever. I just learned that a friend of mine went skydiving on the 4th of July holiday....Jumped at 10 thousand feet...I think I'll just stick to frying chicken!Hahaaa.....

God Bless America!

True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.
Franklin Roosevelt...

If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.

Hope you all enjoy the 4th of July!
