     I am so brave.....................I decided screw it I'm calling the vet.

    No NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    are you freaking kidding me?  my poor DH will be in a straight jacket soon

    Apparently they called the lab and it will be ready on Wednesday - got the impression they wanted someone else to see it

    I thought it was baited breath not bated breath. I just looked up though and Embarrassed.

     

     

    Really, Cathy ??  Must you question what little knowledge I have left floating around in my pickled brain ??

    P.S.    And  . . . . I was right about the dragonflies too,   Just sayin'.

    You should feel honored to know that it was because it was you that I questioned myself and looked it up. Had it been some other (not to be named) folks, I'd have figured it was a typo. Wink

    Karen - I know the wait is torture and in this case it's torture x 2 with your DH but at least now you know that you'll hear on Wednesday. (((Hugs)))

    Hey, are you calling the rest of us stupid? Stick out tongue

    I can't believe how cool it got last night.  I actually turned the ceiling fan off before I went to bed.  The work on the Tower Bridge is still in progress Sad but at least now you can get onto the bridge without taking a road trip behind Raley Field. I talked DS#2 into driving because I don't like to deal with detours and lane closures after dark. I'm a traffic wimp.

    They added Zumba to the Curves circuit, but I only do it on Fridays because I don't want to go back out at 5 p.m. on Tuesdays or Thursdays.  I'll be one of those who never quite figure out what's going on.  Remember Deb, those people you see on the videos are pros. Smile They actually want us to believe that that "could be us." Maybe ... when he!! freezes over.

    Sounds like what I'd do -- "waiting" is not one of my strong suits.  Tell me NOW ... even if it's "I don't know".  just don't ... not tell me! LOL

    Karen, I'm proud of you!!

    • Gold Top Dog
    Wed?! Did you tell them that you have at least 30 people waiting for these lab results? Seriously!

    Im annoyed and grouchy today. Im thoroughly sick of humidity and 90+ weather. Plus my back is bugging me today and i have a bit of a headache. Must be pms time.

    The good news is that i got my travel expenses turned in from last week and most of my reports written. Now i just need to figure out how to pay the gov cc when i get the expense money back. If the gov cc doesnt get paid within the same billing cycle we can get canned.

    Do they still use Amex and there's no paying a little this month and more next month? That's how it was when I worked for the feds. Having the credit cards was such a blessing for travel but it had it's downsides too and the potential for abuse. One guy had used his for a downpayment on a car Huh?

    I got our new health benefits package in the mail and once again, rates have gone up. I'm going to have to choose a different plan to avoid going over the max the employer pays. They did throw in a free $50K life insurance policy, so that was kind of nice. Not that it'll ever benefit me but DH can buy himself a fancy new car with it Big Smile

    OK I need you guys to wish me luck, I have to go to the local shelter and look at a "Newfie" for a resue.  It would be odd that he would be PB especially in our neck of the woods.  Dont know much about him but I know I will prolly fall in love and I cant have any more sooo I need some "Just gather information vibes :)" Wink

    Soooo....???  How did it go??

    Karen, I'm hoping that no news is good news, right?

    I have been a fuzz head all day - lacking concentration like someone drugged me up.  I hope I can function better tomorrow!  eeeek!!  I enjoyed my evening yesterday on my sister/BIL's boat on the biggest lake in NH.  Weather was perfect for it, even though we didn't go out until 3pm.  I got to swim around the boat for almost an hour - something I really needed!  Wish they were closer - I'd go there every weekend if I could... even with their 6 kids.

    • Gold Top Dog
    No amex anymore and yeah, i imagine its very tempting for some people to abuse. Theres so much emphasis on not messing it up that i would rather not have it at all. It is handy though for back to back travel like i have going on right now. I wouldnt want to front 3 weeks worth of hotel stays, air fare and meals. That would be harsh.

    It would be ideal if you had the kind of cards we have. The bill goes to the County office and all we have to do is provide the receipts. They actually pay the bill regardless and then hound us for the receipts later. Stick out tongue

    • Gold Top Dog
    Yeah, that would be too good to be true lol

    For crying out loud.  Karen, I certainly hope they offer you a HUGE discount for making you wait so long....and us.

    I'm bummed.  The news was soooo sad all weekend.  The Red Sox game is in a rain delay, and it's STILL Monday.
