Sue: Wow, I am so sorry that your DM speaks to you so ungratefully and negatively. Wow....just so sad. I can't imagine that she can even hear herself. I hope that you see it for what it is....senseless rambling that doesn't really deserve to be said. You are a saint for calling her. Hope that you get another good night's sleep and have a better call tonight! So, Carole had asked about holiday plans.... Christmas Eve is at my mom's....she likes to do crab that night. DH goes CRAZY with it because he is always hungry and the crab is a lot of work. I like it though At my mom's we will open her gifts and she will open what we have for her. Then she likes to come Christmas morning to watch the boys open gifts and I make breakfast. I will also make Christmas dinner--ham this year. It is one of the smoked hams from last year's pig---I put a light glaze on it. I will also make a big spinach salad with bosc pears and hazelnuts. We will also have some kind of scalloped potatoes and rolls. I usually only have ham and salad and a small serving of potatoes. For dessert-- most likely I will make carrot cake as the boys are tired of pies. We will only have my mom this year since we traveled down south for Thanksgiving. Nice and low key! Our party last Saturday was 45 people and that was our "big" event. Okay, time to get a move on. See you all later!

Hello everyone
Well I learned yesterday after returning to work that I guess one of the guys got very drunk at our awards banquet/Christmas party and was bending silverware and throwing things after the party because he thought he should of got a little more recognition than what he got, he got the same recognition everyone else did. The only people that got a little more were the one's like myself that have been there over 15 years and we got the nice engraved decanters. This guy has only been here 3 years at the most. I guess after the party he got into it with the owner our boss of the company and was really being an asshole. Then he went to the casino bar and was throwing mustard container's at the bar glasses they use for drinks and breaking them. Then he spilled a drink all over another drivers wife, it was a real mess. I left after the party cause I usually don't stay to long after parties like these just because it's a work function and you don't want to get drunk and stupid with your co-workers, well at least I don't. Now our boss decided maybe to do away with the party and the bonus' if his employee's are not going to respect him. He stayed home this week, so a bunch of us texted him to let him know that his generosity doesn't go unnoticed at all and we appreciate everything he does for us during the year. I mean you don't ever shoot a gift horse in the mouth, ever... I think maybe the troubled drinker needs to stay home and not be allowed to come until he seeks help with his alcohol problem. I guess his girlfriend said he's been hitting the hard alcohol for some time now so I know by that remark she made that he has a problem and needs to deal with it. He's really lucky he hasn't been fired yet. Who knows maybe when Dan get's back he just might be. What an idiot... They had to call the drunk to work today and I'm sure the other drivers aren't going to go easy on him for a long time. Things like this make me so mad...He needs to grow up...
OK need to get going I will try and get back later
Jenny

Afternoon all. Figured I had a few I would try to do some personals so I'm not falling asleep posting tonight lol π. I was surprised π³ with my WI. I was down 1.9#. Not real sure how that happened but I'll take it.
Carole thanks for starting us off. Yes WHY NOT. I need to start over AGAIN!!!! Never ending. I don't plan is my problem. We just decide at the last minute what we are going to eat.
I think I am fixing brisket for Christmas dinner. Not sure what all I will have with it. Got to figure that one out. I will try to make it to Christmas morning services. DH will be working g so I will be by myself.
Sorry yesterday was so hectic. Hope today was better. Yes I believe you leaving early is justified for sure. Yeah for Jessica not having to be induced.

Carole we have a park 30 miles away that has all sorts of lights like that too. It's pretty neat but I haven't been there in a while. Oh I hope you can find time to go do the shopping before you get Eden. Any way you can go Thursday instead of Friday. Maybe you can leave early the rest of the week. I will try to put up a little 4 foot tree I bought if I don't get home to late. WO with trainer and was hopping to get off early but not seeing that happen.
Sue ugh πto DM saying that to you π© sorry it wasn't a pleasant visit with her. Maybe if you told her why you wait to do your order then she would understand better.
Christina sorry your knee is hurting. Hope it eases up. I have been pretty bad about getting my water in. Has the DR gave you the green light to start working out next week. Lol π DH not wanting to give up his old coats. I am terrible at getting much housework done. Just do as I have energy lol. Or company.
Lisa we didn't do much buying this year. Just for the DGK hope you get yours done.
Sue lunch sounds pretty good. Hope you are able to find time to FaceTime 8 weeks will be here before you know it.

Gabrielle glad DH is running with you this afternoon Glad you are getting off early. Oh I am far from getting 2 stars. I think I am only at 11 or 12 post.
Where does DS work? Is it a grocery store of some sort. Glad he doesn't have to work real late.
Jenny wow to fellow employee acting childish. Oh I hope his actions doesn't ruin it for the rest of you. I am sure he appreciates the nice words the rest of you are giving him. Maybe he can do an alcohol free party next year.
Ok got to get back to work. Hope I can check back in after my WO
