[Rosebud]

Good middle of the night Keef. Just got up to worry about rain and smoke a bowl I guess. It isn't even raining.. This harvest seems to control everything...got some jarred going to take the rest today I think..But for now I need to sleep.
Glad your headache is gone. Have a good morning.. good night now.

 

[yarddog]

It's early for me, and I'm on the east coast. You guys are up early for sure.
Couple tokes to calm my ADD mind, bowl of frosted flakes and some coffee.
Let the ret race begin.

 

[mrcane]

Morning O.F.C. Rose Sure hope that you got back to sleep.
Keef you are the early bird today ..
Y.D. Is always the early riser... East coast, was raised in Ma. Just to many people.
Sounds like you turn wrenches all day???

 

[Kraven]

I been up since four am, this has been a really rough year for us. So many things have happened and none of them have been good. I'm sure it will all pass, it always does, it just sucks when your in the middle of the woods and cant see anything but the trees. It has been said you put the good times in your wallet and the bad times in your heart, well...one is empty the other is overflowing. I just hope that things will settle for us soon, it truly has been about 15 years since we had a bad year so all in all I'm not complaining, it is just a tougher trudge uphill as you age, and well to be honest I have had enough personally. I'm ready for things to start looking up. I hope everyone has a happy Friday.

 

[yarddog]

Mr cane, yeah I'm a Mack mechanic. Get to play with trucks all day. It makes the bread. My hearts in motorcycles, just no money in it here.

Kraven, hang in there. Your too sharp to stay down. Life does kick us on the ground every now and then.

 

[mrcane]

Morning Kraven You sure have had a tough go lately..Things will get normal again hang in there Bro.. OH YA Fryday...:48:

 

[mrcane]

Y.D. Yep turned wrenches my whole career BIG ones, Mostly locomotive engines E.M.D.s
Alcos,Cats whatever they happen to put in..."Tug Boats"

 

[yarddog]

The big stuff isn't too bad. It can kill you, but for the most part with the right tools, its no harder than cars. Try adjusting the valve lash on a dohc four cyl. the size of a loaf of bread. You'd be amazed at what gets packed into a motorcycle engine.

 

[mrcane]

Actually the bigger the easier hatted Cats to many small parts & O rings. Lots of chainfall work. Rigging can be a back breaker...

 

[umbra]

Good Morning OFC. TGIF. I am up early as well. Lots on my mind. Kraven, you are a survivor and will come out on top. It is the journey that counts my friend.

 

[Keef]

Morning again O.F.C. -- I did what Rose did !-- Had a pipe and went back to bed !-- I hate twisting wrenches whether they big or small !-- Where's my pipe ?- Later !

 

[DirtyDiana]

Well finally told them mofo's at work to effoff, did it at 6am this morning, mixed feelings right now....gonna take a four day and reassess. Got to get a j*b next week.

Sorry Kraven. I recently had a clash with my manager, so I'm looking for a job too. Been 10 years since I had to hustle a job-- sucks. Way too early to retire. Luckily, I have a degree & a license so getting a job shouldn't be too hard. I just don't want to settle for something I'll hate in the long run. I'm sure the place you just left sounded pretty good on hire. Employers can be deceiving. You wake up on day & wonder how you ended up in a place like that; it's nothing like you expected. Then, you gotta do the job hustle again, which can be as bad as the job itself! Here's to you & me finding a decent job, cause some people have to work.! Good luck, happy hunting!

Morning, gang. 52 degrees here and no rain (yet). Think the pot pen is getting emptied this weekend, but maybe not. Calling for temps back up in the 60s by Tuesday.

Seems like every fall catches me with my pants down. I think I'll start getting ready for next winter around May.

 

[umbra]

It is much harder looking for a job you like, than just taking anything to pay the bills. I am there as well. I have done both. The hardest part is leaving all the nonsense at work. It seems I have 2 lives that I live. When I was a teenager, I had a certain façade for the teachers and my Mother, and another for my friends. This continues even today. One for all the muggles and another my true self. My problems are when the 2 start to meld together and I start talking about growing weed with a bunch CEO's

 

[DirtyDiana]

Even I, the mistress of darkness, was up early today-- 8am! Hope to have a phone interview for a job today. Hate interviews. Husband says, just be yourself & they'll love you. I'm afraid they might see just how not normal I am. Right Hippie? Wish I had a candy apple; love those things & cotton candy. Yum! You know, Kraven, we have a pattern in our life-- about every 10 year's something drastic happens & it seems our world turns upside down. Feel like we're living a country song. Funny thing though, after the worry, anger & sadness dissipate we realize that change can be good. Like after a good rain things look brighter. Waiting for the rain to stop, and it will. Just where the merry go round stops you never know!

It's always been that way, right. Have to be real careful in my profession. You can lose your job & your entire career.
