7 of the 8 surviving siblings of the original 12 were there along with her last surviving son, many grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was buried right next to Daddy Jessie. Two of her sons are one plot over.Well, off to Milton FL for the wife's sister's funeral. I worked until almost 5 AM so I'm a bit tired.
Safe travels Ernie and condolences to your wife. I hate as the older we get, we say goodbye to more and more of those we love.
Beware complacency!Our Walmart is open 24 hours which makes it nice for me. I can leave the bar at 2 AM and go pick up a needed maintenance item or a few pairs of socks. No lines and friendly cashiers that compete to have you use their aisle.I would definitely prefer to go at night though. Lol. That is MUCH better than dealing with the crowds, IMO.
Ours is open 24 hours too. I rarely go late at night, but it is MUCH better when I do. I should really start doing that.
Going into a Walmart late at night would be something I would avoid. Danger lurks everywhere, especially for a woman, alone. I do walk with a serious gait though and that is supposed to be a deterrent for possible harm, and according to what I have read. Haughty walk with head UP!
I'm not scared!I live in a very low crime area, thankfully. Our Walmart has a brightly lit parking lot, and I would just park close to the door.
I'm not afraid to go to the store by myself and just live my life.
Same here, it's remained above freezing for over a week. I actually had thoughts of starting some tomatoes in the greenhouse. I suppose I could watch the temp predictions and move them into the garage when less-than-freezing temps were expected.Spring is finally in the air. In the sun, it is in the high 50s! Woo-hoo! Almost all the snow has melted off my patio. Soon, I will set up my patio furniture and my umbrella.
Good luck, Chris. Something will turn up, just be persistent. If all else fails, maybe you should consider your own business?Good night darlinks. I love you guys.
And we're still keeping vigil for

And all others we love and hold in concern.
And the light is on awaiting the return of Sheila and Becki and all the others who have been MIA lately. We hope everyone is okay.
P.S. Sometimes in the editing of the vigil list or when I have switched computers, somebody gets dropped that is supposed to be on it. This will always be inadvertent and if ya'll would call it to my attention, it would be much appreciated.
I've given up my job hunt for the time being.
Is there any possibility of going off-grid?I won't be around posting here in the evening tonight, and maybe not tomorrow or the next night either. I'm putting in some overtime so that I can pay my very expensive electric bill so I don't have that hanging over my head this summer. They would like me to go on a payment plan where I pay all year, but no way. I'm going to put in some OT and use that money to pay it off completely. Times are tough living here in MA. Very, very tough. They raised our electric rates 37% this year. It's ridiculous. I wouldn't be surprised if Assachusetts loses some residents because of it either. Really, the only thing keeping me here is my family. All of my family live in this part of the country (Maine and Massachusetts mostly).
I live in a small townhouse that I rent.
Wow! The written stuff appears Asian. I work with loads of Asians and the speak the same way. We affectionately refer to such communications as "chinglish".Here is a copy of an email I got from a business that I apparently applied for online. Most, if not all, of the jobs in my line of work are advertised online. You can't just go into a place and expect to fill out an application. Everything is done online now. Anyway, here is just another example of why job hunting online is just awful.
Here it is:

AS you can see, there was no link provided, no company name given, no information at all. I've responded to probably 100 ads on Craigs List. I have no idea what company this is. The person who emailed me is a person name and not a company name.
So, I sent a polite email response asking if they had a link they could give me to fill out the application.
Hello friends, as some know I've been pretty busy with Mrs O, in and out of the Hospital these past 4 months. She has entered end stage Liver disease, I'm going to talk with her doctors about changing her treatment to a palliative Care. There is no sense in trying to cure something that is incurable. Best for her that we treat the symptoms and make her as comfortable as possible. There are some here who can get messages to me if need be....
Hey Folks, I sent a pm to Noomi about a week ago. I haven't heard anything. I truly hope she is doing okay. Glad to see Foxy put her on the vigil list.
Wait a minute, ain't you the one who's supposed to go to the beach with the bar maids......I'm up!
One cup of coffee and near functional.
The wife is off to the beach with 2 of my bar maids and I have the day to myself.
Thursday is my day off.Wait a minute, ain't you the one who's supposed to go to the beach with the bar maids..`....I'm up!

Well so much for a day off...
I heard this morning that we would be having folks over for dinner next Thursday. Max and Jim want to shoot that 2 pound Tannerite target, so, I fired up the tractor and repaired a few wash-outs on the way up to the rifle range. I even cut in a short cut that will take 200 yards off the walk for Max.
He'll thank me later.
I moved 50 or 60 yards of dirt and clay and graded about 150 yards of access road.
Crap! Just finished cleaning coffee off my keyboard.
That's a tall wind, even for the Gulf Coast!Was sitting here thinking it was getting uncomfortably warm in the oven when Mrs. Baird (our resident ghost) came in and left the front door open per usual. Instant cooling. I love it! I'll sweep the leaves out of the foyer later. Really windy this afternoon.
Got tickled reading the alerts from our local TV weather page--warned us of 30 foot winds gusting to 45 or 50. Whoever typed that out must be from the coast.
