I was NOTHING but busy making excuses and passing the buck in my last post that I failed to ask.

Actually I did get my nap in. I don't know if it is the weather or just residual tiredness from my surgery but I do NOTHING but enjoy my nap lately.

Yeah, W used to say I like to play with boys more than girls. I explained to him my whole life has been pretty much surrounded by boys/men- both my husband and my family pretty much only produce boys, only a few girls scattered in here and there, and in my profession back when I first started out it was mostly men. So I guess it's a comfort zone for me. W said he kind of surmised that by my interaction. However, if I feel at all uncomfortable, I will do NOTHING but back off. There has to be mutual respect with the bantering, and all in all, it has pretty much been that way here.

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy female company as well. That's why it's nice to have you on here. In fact, I hadn't had extended girl time for so long that I think that's why I didn't want to come back home between staying with my cousin and then my sister. It was a blast! My friends around here are all so busy - many still work full-time or are very involved with their family.

Good for you. I think that is NOTHING but a healthy thing to do especially if your body is telling you that you need it.

I think I scared K off again. Either that or he's waiting for another compliment like last night to draw him back. NOTHING doing, I'm not going to fall into that trap - lol. I think he actually enjoys getting me in trouble.

In the meantime, I do kind of feel sorry for him. He's been outnumbered on here lately. I would count Nucky's presence as only half here.

You never have to have a reason for a nap.. They are NOTHING but nature's little pick-me-ups..

Oh sure, that's some NOTHING excuse you got there. Working a little late tonight, aren't you?

[Abby10]

Hey I just realized, Nucky said he would be here today, but no Nucky.......

I think he decided to give 3 word a little attention earlier today and forgot all about us. Can't wait until his project is completed and he can spend more time with us doing NOTHING.

I used to have to sit through these. There was a commercial on tv for Geico that brought back memories of them. Have you seen this? NOTHING but hysterical.

Luckily ours are a little more structured than that and done by phone. When it gets to my place in the contract review they ask if I have any questions or concerns. I've been doing this long enough and dealing with a lot of the same people that I usually have NOTHING to say. Then I click off and go home.. lol

Not surprised that would be NOTHING but your next step....

And you call that work? You need to spend a day at work with me. Well, not so much the job I have now, but any jobs I had previous to this were NOTHING but abusive. Oh yeah, work smarter not harder........took me almost 60 years to learn that. Never said I was a quick learner.

Getting the contract is the easy part. Doing the work, not so much. lol

If it took you 60 years to learn to work smarter not harder, you're right, you're NOTHING but a slow learner..

Well, it might have been less than 60.....

As far as your work goes, I don't envy the physical part. No heavy lifting at my job. I mean how much could a bottle of pills actually weigh? It's the mental part of it and the constant multi-tasking that can NOTHING but wear you down. If I didn't have the job I have now, I would have been done at least 5 years ago. Every day you pray you don't make a mistake - it's nerve wracking when you're working at a fast pace. My husband much prefers the physical labor he does now and is glad to be out of that rat race. He does nap a lot though......and probably rests more peacefully than before.

I can't imagine the focus you must have to do your job. I'd probably put the wrong pills in the wrong bottle..

I trust NOTHING to chance though. If they send a different shape or color of one of my meds I always look it up on line to make sure it's the right drug. Why do they make the same drug in so many different shapes and colors? lol
