Happy Thursday, everyone! It's Lent again (already!), which means I'm already craving the chocolate that I gave up until Easter. :sad:

I work in a Doctor's office, and since a lot of the diagnostic numbers and forms are changing, we're getting new computers! We're so excited, as we're still using XP, which was getting sort of slow with the newer programs. So we decided on laptops for this time around, and shopped for the best prices (there are only 3 of us on computers, and we're all shopaholics). This morning, Yours Truly had the pleasure of commandeering the boss's credit card and making the purchases. They ran thus;

3 Toshiba Laptops; $1866.63
2 Claim Programs; $790.00
New Forms; $70.00 (for 1,000)

GRAND TOTAL; $2726.63

BONUS! Secretary getting a bug in her bonnet and calling Hubby to tell him she just spent 2800 dollars (and NOT telling him it wasn't his money).......

PRICELESS!

I am so evil today! :mrgreen:

Ooohh, that is SO evil! cheesy

I hope your eye feels better soon. Try opening your eyes under still water (as in a bowl of water not in the shower) and avoid rubbing it as whatever is in your eye cancause scratches.

It wasn't exactly in my eye. It rather was at the inner side of the the eye lid but it's okey now. It happened the same with my other eye around three weeks ago which is very weird. But it's okey now. I hope it won't happen again. :]

I am glad you are feeling confident about your presentation , I wish you luck for Friday. Let us know how you do!

Have a good field day today Victoria, hope the rain holds up for you all. Try flushing your eyes with some warm mild salted water, it's soothing and will wash away any little bits.

And I am all stressed about it again. :lol: The rain wasn't that bad - good for us - although I desperately need to clean my wellies after walking in the mud around dairy farm. ^^

Merry Thursday!

Have a fantastic day everyone. I hope everything goes the way you want it to.

I am trying to get some work done at home while my son is having a nap. Soon it will be time to pick up my other son from school and then start dinner.

I am looking forward to relaxing tonight. A couple of my favourite shows are on. Mr. Festive surprised me with some American candy last night so I am going to enjoy those while I veg out in front of the TV later

We got a little American candy shop opened next to my place not so long ago too. I sneaked in there few days ago to see what they have and I was delightful to see so many candies I use to eat when I was little which were sent by my mum while she was in the USA. It really made me smile. ^^

Good morning!
It's going to be another chilly day, temperatures are only going to be in the mid 20's. We are currently at 18 degrees.
Not too much going on today. I need to run to Rite Aid this morning to pick up a prescription refill. Then I'll be working on some chores around the house. My mother has a birthday coming up soon and I need to start thinking about a gift. I'll probably browse online to get some ideas. Hopefully I'll come up with something.
I hope everyone is well and has a great day!!!

Looking for presents is always a fun thing to do. Hope you will find something suitable. :]

Hi everyone...picked up a cold from my little grandson. Nothing serious, just annoying!
I took it as a good reason to lay on the couch and watch a Christmas movie this afternoon. (The Christmas Card)
It felt kind of naughty to just chill like that, but boy...did I need it!
I'll spend some time catching up on your posts tonight.
Have a great evening all!

another day done and .......
well, another day done.

Not very busy today at work, strange happenings, but funny, most of them. My right shoulder is very sore again, must have twisted it wrong or something. Cut two fingers at work. Forgot to give cash back twice (caught it right away ) had one lady mad at me because I wanted her to empty her basket on the counter. (you know those ones customers can carry for shopping rather than using a cart), asked me why I was working there if I was not capable of taking her items out of it myself. I am cleaning close to my till, keeping an eye on customers in case I am needed when supervisor gets on the load speaker and tells me to go to my till. At least that got all the cashiers and some customers laughing as I was right there! So I went and stood by my till, no customers to serve. Another cashier turned and wanted to know how long I planed to stay there with nothing to do. LOL
So, I am glad to be home.

How was your day?

I hope your fingers are alright and that your shoulder feels better!
That lady shouldn't have spoken to you like that. No reason for her to be rude!
Typical day for me, just watching a little tv before I head to bed.
I hope you have a relaxing evening!!!
