Roll Call for December 11, 2006

[Flo]

Is it my imagination or did no one start the roll call this morning? Well, it is my honour to do so then.

Checking in from Lotus Land in the great Pacific Northwest where the weather is finally back to seasonal norms - mild but wet - and I am soon going to be celebrating 7 months smoke free on the 18th of this month. Yahoo!

You know, I did have a thought on the weekend while being a bit stressed - I thought why not just go back to 'normal' - that is, smoking. I was aghast at the thought and that was the end of that one.

Hang in everyone. Christmas is coming! Have a great week.

p.s. This new job is horrible. The boss is a madman! I gave my notice today. Onwards and upwards!

Hi Flo, I thought Lotus was insect that makes for a noisy day?

Maybe today's a holiday? Shopping? Snowed In?

Oh,well, happy days are here again....for some of us.

Snow is melting here!
I don't mind rain. Gotta wash that salt off the car.

Around here Pops those bugs are called Cicadas, aka The 17 Year Locust.
And some folks around here actually gather them up to eat.

Flo, new job not as advertised??
That's actually quite common to hear. And now you know why the job was open.
Yep, onward and upward.

Ahh the season of gift-giving is upon us. Mayhem, chaos and large bills.
Stay sane and smokeless everyone!

;D Still here but way late in reporting this week. I just don't know where the time is going. Must be the holiday season as the reason why time is flying. I am still very grateful to be smoke free and enjoying clean air coming into my lungs. Yahoooo!!!!!!

I hope you all have a great reast of your week.
