Good Morning! I started skimming through the posts but I'm not going to be able to read all. I hope everyone had a good weekend. Summer seemed to have made a come back here!

We had a good weekend. DH couldn't work on the car afterall as we are still waiting for the car part to arrive. However, a broken Tablet and a sudden leaking toilet soon took up any spare time! Thankfully I managed to oraganise a refund for the tablet as we haven't had it long! Now I need to by a new one, can't decide if to get the same or another .....

DH and I ended up having a good hearty laugh at everything that seems to be going wrong or falling apart lately. What else can you do hey? It's nothing compared to some people.

Fall has come quite literally to you.

Just finishing lunch...A double whopper with fries from Burger King...Not so healthy but I skipped Breakfast. Anyway everyone has posted such amazing photos of the Fall so far... we are all so lucky to get to enjoy this season. On a side note I think I may want to retire to Canada!! Its views are simply stunning from what I have seen..and I would love the winters!!!

That sounds like a good lunch, I feel my cholesterol rising just thinking about it. cheesy I love Whoppers, that is my meal of choice when I go to BK.

Thanks, CS!

No, I'm keeping the one I committed to.

This one would've been higher pay, but the management left a lot to be desired. The interview was a bit unprofessional, and they wouldn't answer some of my questions, which I thought was strange. And today their voicemail said they wanted a second interview, but when I spoke with the lady, she offered me the job. She even eluded to the fact that the lady they hired didn't learn the job fast enough, and that they are a busy firm & can't afford to train her more. (?) I am not willing to risk losing my job for people like that, I'd be weary of them doing the same thing to me.

Them giving out that information about an employee is very unprofessional. I think you made the right choice.

Good evening,

I am not doing well today, I took some Claritin before bed last night and it made my heart race all night long, I have been up since 2:30am but I went to work lasted about 6 hours before leaving work early. I came home a little after 1pm and took a short nap. I feel lousy. I do get to watch my Bruins in a preseason game tonight on TV, and next Thursday will be the first game of the new season. I am glad I have tomorrow off.

I hope you all are doing well.

Glorious summer day here - back in tee shirts and shorts weather. Works fine for me as I'm planting bulbs for next spring.

Sorry about your knee, CS - how long do they think it will take to heal??

My friend from Montreal is coming to stay next Monday for 2 weeks. Phoned her today to finalise all the details only to discover from her husband she flew out 5 days ago! Lesson to be learned here - read emails more carefully! Turns out she flies to Heathrow on the 24th, like I expected but from Paris, not Montreal! For one heart stopping moment, I thought I'd really screwed it up and she would be on my doorstep on Tuesday - which REALLY wouldn't be good - haven't found her room yet. I know I last saw it at the end of the hall next to the bathroom but that's as good as it gets at the moment!!!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend, peoples!!!!!

I hope your spare room didn't decide to turn into an office/storage room like mine did! Are you off to follow The Bay City Rollers soon?
