23-skidoo-thousand!
omnis, could be fun? I don't remember, do you like and/or get along with her BF?
For the most part. He goes from annoying lazy to in your face-I'm-right-and-doing-it-my-way-not-listening to you if he is doing anything. That's when he is annoying. But when just chatting, he's fine. He's rather handy-man type. So that is helpful. But he keeps wanting to charge full labor rates for handyman jobs. "well, a plumber would charge you $xxx for that, so, how about $xxx - $10." Um. Well. The plumber is also license and bonded and has overhead. Also has the misc nuts/washers/etc, and doesn't require 20 trips to Home Depot to finish the task. So, he gets annoying in that aspect. I wanna throw some work his way (he's unemployed tile guy), but saving less a couple % isn't getting you the job. Just saying.
Will has complicated family stuff on Thursday so we're going to have Fri and Saturday together.
I think we're going to have ham and brussel sprouts and stove top stuffing and pie. Not terribly fancy but I like the ham part of Thanksgiving (my family always did ham and turkey). i kind of want to do sweet potato casserole but I need to find a scaled down recipe. And the way I'm feeling again Stove top stuffing is easier to do.

And now you know.
Not that I can possibly compete with the cuteness that is Ryan, but here is a shot of our very first foster puppy: [link]
His name is Patch, he's about 4.5 months old, and he is a total lovebug. He's also malnourished and has a big gash on his face, so our job is to socialize, heal, and feed him to get him ready for his forever family. Seriously, people, HOW CUTE IS HE?
Ryan!
I needed some fashion tips and now I have them
(and Puppy!)
Finished the conference, which was good but exhausting. Stopped at B Dubs on the way home. Got food poisoning; the SO far worse than me. Woes.
Seriously, people, HOW CUTE IS HE?
The answer is six. He is six cutes.
Having a bad, bad, bad day. Got no nerves left for this war, and now I just found that almost all of the guys who study with me were called in. A friend of one of them told about her neighbor, that her five sons were called in. (They're Druze, btw).
So much violence. So much unnecessary violence. I'm trying to be tolerant to others as much as I can, but I'm on a very short fuze today. And yet, I didn't kill a classmate that said that getting an Iron Dome to the center of Israel outraged her. Right. Because 3 million people without proper shelters aren't worthy of protection, just because one million in the south suffer more. I'm so happy she's not a decision maker.
My task for today is trying to get along with her and talk. She's a pain in the ass most days, but we have the same schedule, so angry looks and hoping for a mute button for her won't work in the long term.
Yeah, bad day seems kind of an understatement.
Safety and peace (in all its forms) to you and yours, Shir.
