Sister Mary Elephant who we all loved was NOTHING but wrong we didn’t go blind, we went deaf. MRS. Abby that is a joke hand grenade. It’s going to take some thinking, you remind me of my Dear Mom, joke wise of course.:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Nothing we could do including standing on our head and spitting Chicklets could get us access to the site. Either Russians or a disgruntled person. Lol:blahblahblah:

It could be Russian. It was briefly mentioned in that Dossier. Something about an Ipee Address or it could be nothing.

I was posting something earlier and the whole site went down. NOTHING but my fault. On my way home now. I didn't think a day could be worse than yesterday. NOTHING but wrong. I'll check in when I get home to see what Nucky is saying about me.

Nothing to take seriously. But I have to ask, did he wear out Abby 1 thru 9?

I can't even figure out what you guys are talking about tonight. NOTHING but whipped I guess and the brain is heading straight for shut down mode. Just found out today I have to go in tomorrow too - only a half day, thank goodness. Three 10 hour days in a row may have killed me. I'm getting too old for this crap.

Thanks to all you wonderful people in The Villages, I've come back from vacation no longer liking my job. Counting down the days seems like NOTHING but torture at this point.

tomwed 08-01-2018 07:08 PM

Maybe Mr Abby10 was married 9 times before to an Abby.

or maybe that's just nothing to think about.

The only thing worse than hating your job is knowing you're going to lose the NOTHING bet.

Here is how tired I am......I just figured out the Abby 1-9 discussion.....Abby10......duh! If I had an answer for the 10, I'd tell you, but I got NOTHING.

Already checked into that several years back and hubby and I both decided NOTHING doing. First of all, I refuse to pay out any more money to relicense in another state.......it's a racket. Secondly between the number of seniors on meds in Florida and the opioid situation in the surrounding area it would be like jumping from the frying pan into the fire.

Realistically, I should have stayed in hospital pharmacy which I did my first 15 to 20 years before leaving to help out my husband with the business he was running at the time. Working retail pharmacy is an early burn-out job. I'm still able to do it because I'm in good health but I've seen pharmacists in their 40's already in poor health from the long work hours with no breaks to eat or even go to the bathroom. Between poor eating habits which develop as a result, standing on your feet 10-12 hours a day, and just the overall stress level of the job it is not unusual to have failing health at a much younger age than normal. This is the biggest reason my husband pretty much left the profession before he was even 55 and I've decided on a cut off date myself. Not worth sacrificing your health.

So many high stress jobs. Stress is NOTHING but a killer.

What about NOTHING more than Mother’s Little Helpers? I truly feel bad for the pharmacist’s around here, they do take a beating. I hope we never have to change from the Publix Pharmacy we have come to love. They are fine people and are managed properly.

I agree with you about Publix. That's probably the pharmacy we will use when we move down. That company seems to be NOTHING but a fine operation all the way around.

NOTHING has ever been spoken that is more on the money than stress being a killer. How about working 12 hours a day and being on call the other 12. Nextel two way radio on the nightstand. Pure hell. No thanks. No job is worth going down the drain. :pray:

Truer words never spoken. I've seen too many die from what I would consider stress related diseases. NOTHING but sad.

Speaking of stress, where the heck is K? He seems to enjoy hit and runs these days......

Yep, there's all kinds of stress in different jobs. And having your own business can have it's pluses, but not without stress either. As you said, often times NOTHING but a 24/7 operation.

NOTHING but have to agree with everyone about stress. Before we moved up to Washington I was working for a start up in the bay area. I was working crazy hours trying to help get the company off the ground. I was often working 7 days a week, well over 90 hours. I was young-ish. Thought I could do anything. When my blood pressure went to 210/120 Mrs. K pulled the plug on me and we moved north.

Even though I can sill let myself get wound up in the job I have learned to delegate more. I've also taken up the philosophy of Working to live, not living to work..

As Mrs. K says.. "You'll never enjoy retirement if you're dead".

That's exactly what happened to my husband. His BP was going through the roof and I kept telling him he had to make a change. He finally did, but it wasn't until he fully retired that his health pretty much returned back to normal. Odd as it might sound, trying to get him to take medicine is NOTHING but difficult so quitting and making lifestyle changes was pretty much his only other option.

I'm like Nucky, I don't get high BP, I give it. Where my husband would hold everything in, I wouldn't. I try to release my stress in mostly in good ways, unfortunately sometimes not. I try not to hurt anybody in the process. :boxing2:;)

Your husband and I are both very lucky guys in that we both have NOTHING but caring wives to look after us when we might not be looking after ourselves.

How's he feeling after his bee assault?

He's doing okay. He keeps going out for more - NOTHING but Mr Tough Guy. Of all the times in his life he decides to ditch the white coat job to do all this physical labor. I know he loves it but it worries me because he doesn't know when to stop. Some nights he comes home and he can barely stand up. Tonight he even went to the gym afterward......he is one determined guy and difficult to stop when he gets going.

I keep telling him he'll find plenty of odd jobs to do when we move to TV. As for me, I'll be busy enough just trying to stay out of trouble.

NOTHING but fun trying to blow up the credit cards. Of course until the bills come due. I’m the problem child as far as spending goes. I loves to spend. I loves to make money to. I’m thinking about starting a diet program. Or being a Televangelist. Oh yeah that the ticket, slap some big fake eyelashes on momma and preach the word. The word is NOTHING but folding American Dollars in the collection plate. No change please!

I hate medication also especially since this last experience where I was taking a carcinogen made in China. So many side effects with all these meds. Fortunately all I take is the BP meds and maybe if I could learn to exercise more and eat less I could go back to taking NOTHING. I have already removed the stress.

Fw, you crack me up with your sharp wit.

Looks like Mr Konfidence needs to be knocked down a few pegs. I'm NOTHING but up for the challenge. I have to admit what Nucky once said though. When the time finally comes that we're both moved to TV, it will be a win-win for all of us. Then NOTHING can expand its borders if the manifesto allows, of course. That will give us good reason to attempt to locate at least one of our lost members to seek answers.
