Tuesday - The Thread

[Daniel]

Woke up an hour late.

[TGO David]

Same as yesterday. Busy, busy, busy.

[Garufa]

Down in Memphis for Holiday business.

Waiting for lunch time to get my bbq on!

[Daniel]

The wife is off from school (she teaches 3rd grade) and is going to meet me for lunch. Me and the supply sgt are the only ones here so it is almost assured to be a short day. The other 3 people are on leave.

[musicman]

Tuesdays I get up earlier (usually 5:45-6am) for meeting at 6:45 with a business group I'm a part of. My wife is up every morning at 6 to get ready for school (she's a teacher) so it's no biggie most weeks. Well, she's on break now, and somehow I set my alarm for 6:47 am, not the 5:50 I meant to! Kelley's roold over this morning and says "you know it's 6:30, right?" I jumped outta bed pretty darn quick! I made it there about 5 minutes late, but it's all good!

Musicman...BNI? My group decided not to meet this morning.

The wife was up at 5am to go with her mom and sister to a UT Vet to see WTF is wrong with one of their dogs. I'm getting ready to deliver some client Christmas presents, and stop by The Reloaders Bench to drool over a LWRC AR they had up there...if it's still there.

Another day of work, another dollar and a quarter earned. *sigh*

[Angus]

Have a damn cold, been dealing with it 3 days now, called in sick last night when I left work. The airport sucks this time of year, so the cold sucks, but work sucks more!!

[musicman]

Yep, BNI! We're the new Smyrna 7AM tuesday chapter. It's been pretty good for me so far.

What about you?

[Luckyforward]

I'm in a lovely cabin high above Wears Valley outside of Pigeon Forge for the holidays; daughter from Charlotte coming in Wednesday; daughter from Murfreesboro coming in today.

Am trying to enjoy the holidays and re-engage the job hunt first of the year . . .

[DavidD]

Have to work all day today and at least half the day on Christmas Eve. Should probably work the day after and Saturday but won't since my dad is coming in. I work for myself (Partner and I own the company) and two weeks ago we were out of work and had been for almost a month. We are in the Construction Industry and had a couple of decent projects pulled because the owners financing dried up. Talk about scary when all you keep hearing is doom and gloom every time you turn on the news. Thank you Mr. Bush, Mr. Obama and Mrs. Pelosi but we (the company and family) have done the responsible thing and saved for just such occurrences so please keep any bailout you might have given me and just don't raise my taxes since I'm not asking ( me holding my breath ). Anyway, It is a good day so far as I'm still alive and I have enough work now to get me through January so having to work today and tomorrow aint so bad......

Finished the huge project I have been working on, only some small housekeeping to do on it. Getting ready to go get some last minute stuff for the wife. She hasn't been able to go finish because I have been working so much and at the office so late. Got to get my self out of the dog house.

Lunch is soon.

[ShaunM]

Off work all day and the rest of the week- enjoying visiting with my daughter in town from John Deere in Moline Illinois.

[Punisher84]

Drove to work in Memphis traffic. Watched a bunch of people wreck. Got to work and got stuck outside all day in the rain. Tired, wet, aggravated, and ready to go home. Don't get off until 930. Did I mention I work really long days sometimes?

[bubbadavis]

Since I'm out of work, I went to Owl Hollow for a bit. Too cold to spend all day there but it was good to throw some lead down range.

Worked until about 1200. Cleared my regular schedule for tomorrow. I will just be 'on call.' On my way home, I counted blessings. Me and my family are together, happy and healthy. I can't, and won't ask for anything more. Work is stable and busy. God has truly blessed me. I thanked Him for this. Tonight we chill. Tomorrow is off to my wife's family. Tomorrow night my son will read from Luke 2, the story of Jesus' birth. I will sit back, probably cry, but be ever thankful for the gifts in my life.

Know Jesus, know peace.

No Jesus, no peace.

I do very well from it. I'm in the Summit Chapter.

Now I'm sitting here wondering if I should trade my Kriss SuperV in on a LWRC M6SRT reloaders bench has sitting there, taunting me.

[MudBugjr]

Sitting here at mamas shop listening to about 2 dozen kids playing in the background going nuts while she shops and cooks. Well I think I'm better off. get out of here about 6 and close up for a couple days and enjoy.

[Guest Astra900]

Just picked up a big floral arrangement for the MRS. while she was out. She ought to be smiley:)

That should earn me some sack points, yeah?

[Guest pjblurton]

Went into work late... Did nothing... Sent my employees home at noon and instructed them to have a Merry Christmas...Left work shortly thereafter...

Gotta say it was a good day...

Heading out to Knoxville tonight to enjoy time with family.

[Daniel]

I seem to be pretty at peace.
