Thanks. im just messin around with the deer brine to try something different. will definitly steam it!! Dads 85 and loves cress so im goin to ask if i can pic some. Mom has a dressing she makes for the cress. sugar,vinegar,one egg add water to make one cup. bring to a simmer. cool it and then toss the cress with it. he loves buckwheat cakes too but the sour ones. mom mixes the batter and adds a starter them lets it work like a sourdough in a crock in the basement. old school food!

By the looks of the food you post, it’s no wonder you’re disappointed at restaurants.

 

Just got a call from the VA a few minutes ago , looks like my visit to Patient Advocacy is working in my favor !!! . The Ortho dept called and set up a return visit on Feb 28th and will be with the same surgeon I saw in November !!!

This is the surgeon who did my knee replacement in 2014 and who mentioned in November that my knee is packed with scar tissue

 

Dewayne you might want to think about this before ruling it out. What shift is open position on? Better hours? More time off? Decent pay raise? Not only on your paycheck, but into your 401K or pension. You certainly could apply, be honest in your interview concerning computer skills, possibly they could train you to up your skills? Sometimes others see strengths in a person that personally the individual is not aware they have? My opinion you should put in for the vacancy. If not to your liking, you can always decline the offer.

 

Good luck Chuck. After today's snow I will be making a call myself.

 

Thanks for the input! ive got the weekend to think on it. I like your point of views on it. guess im just embarassed bout the computer stuff but could go to our coummunity colledge and take a class its only 5 minutes from the house

 

C.Y.A. ALL DAY BITCHES

Playing with semantics again?

Go beat -o- shit something and go away..

 

It is funny the uses that stuff has , up home we would put hay around the blueberry bushes if a frost was predicted before they were raked. We would also put them around the house foundation for insulation :}

Most properties have brick fences around them. 2 blocks over is a 55 & Older community that's almost vacant during summer. The homes around the perimeter have to have the drifted sand removed so they can get their drive through gates open when they get back for winter. Our bales stop a good portion of the drifting sand coming out of the north but not all of it. I have an old concrete mixer I made into a sifter to seperate the sand from the decorative rock in the front yard. I may break it out next week and start working the front yard while the weather is still cool and I have plenty of time.

 

Mike you are a good man. But don’t let it go to your head.

 

There are lots of typing tutor games out there that are free and will help you learn to type while making it fun. I actually leaned how to keyboard with Mario teaches typing Only females took typing classes when I was in school so most of us didn't know how to type.

The CC should offer a class in basic office applications that I bet would get you through what you need. Don't worry about the email you sent, you would be surprised by how many people hit reply to all instead of reply, or reply to all instead of forward. Talking highly educated people and even those that work with computers. Pretty sure I am not the only one that could tell some embarrassing stories about doing that. Or at least others.

If it is something you want to do don't let the computer stuff stop you, Doug is spot on IMO. If it is something you want to do. I have gone to the top of the shitpile and can't climb any higher without a Masters degree. Not going to happen. I am happy where I am. If you are not and think you'd get more satisfaction at the next level grab that bull by the horns and throw it to the ground. But that is also worth what you paid for it

Still see a little bit of it around here but not much. Because round bales. Round bales everywhere. Just isn't right....

 

The kid next to me got discharged yesterday.
I’m still at 98% failure rate for workers in the bay next to me..

Didn’t listen
Didn’t learn
Expected stuff I told him first week wouldn’t happen.
Especially getting paid....

 

You remind me of an old dude by the name of George when I worked my way from porter to a bay next to George at a local Lincoln mercury dealership a lifetime ago. Can’t repeat what he used to tell me cuz it’s banned worthy

 

Well he started swearing all day long and bitchin and complaining..
We all do but do it but under our breath.
He created his own problems with HR and started making waves.
He work declined and started being suspect...

On edit
Plus going to the GM twice in one week with an attitude didn’t help also
