Made another treat for work. Tomorrow is some sort of bake off. I didn't actually bake anything here, but it's Rice Krispie Treats made with Oreos instead of Rice Krispies. They look decadent.

Fred, I sang Mr Flu shot for my coworkers today

Is there a video?  I'd have loved to have heard that!

I think we'd all like to see that.

We went through the desk of the fired coworker


vixmom - Had she been given time to go through her desk to organize stuff if she wanted?


She wasn't let go because of disorganization,   We had many complaints about her rudeness, she has cost the firm several thousand of dollars through errors, she was constantly texting or talking on her cell phone , she would get up and walk out of the office without saying anything to anyone and be MIA for an hour or more.  She was late 4 days out 5 but out the door moments before the end of the day , she was always "too busy" to assist with my overflow files but was handling 1/5 or less Of caseload I was, and my files kept increasing as clients insisted she be taken off their files


She was warned repeatedly by the boss and she made no adjustments in her behavior....


As I said, Yesterday, I was only surprised it took him so long

A flu shot song sung by vixmom could go viral.

Watching a very weird Golon Globus musical of Red Riding Hood with a singing Isabella Rosselini as Red's mother. It was one of those kids musicals they made like Puss N Boots with Christopher Walken.

When the Vixter was a little thing, about 3 or so as she sat in my knee and I sang her a lullaby, she put her hand on my mouth and kindly but firmly advised "that's ok Mama, I'll sing to you"

Off to sleep if I'm going to even have any chance at all for the "first after BK" race in the morning.

That's also a Lutheran characteristic, at least as far as my family is concerned.

Sitting here like so much fish listening to some William Walton music.  This is three Williams in a row - Alwyn, Walton, and Wordsworth.

The nap was not planned.  I think it was the result of a boring World Series game.

Instead of my driving up north to take him to lunch, he met me down here at the Emerald Queen for lunch.

Ginny, maybe it was 14 hours of work but it took me a little too long to figure out that all the items being sold said "Virginia"


Thank you, Vixmom.  I didn't get it at all.  Duh!  I must be brain-dead.
