Halloween - Sorta

So in early October this nice lady I work with was talking about Halloween. She said she wanted to be a black cat. I immediately got a vision in my head of what her costume should be. I said "I can help you with that." So she gave me her measurements, and I made her a black cat costume. I tried to get it to her early so she could try it on and I could make adjustments if necessary. She had elbow surgery and missed some work. We were supposed to meet at a local car show that some guys from work were participating in but failed to connect. So, she called me the 30th and said let's get together for breakfast. I showed her the costume and she loved it. She was thrilled beyond belief. I said go home and try it on. If it's not right call me right away and I will fix it! She didn't call so I thought all was well. I asked her about it Sunday morning at work. It didn't fit. Some places worse than others. So she ended up going to a costume shop at the last minute and buying a cheap cat costume.

I didn't get any pictures of the costume.

Warning Labels

At work there are rotating red lights mounted to the walls and ceiling throughout the facility. In safety training we were told that in case of fire the lights would go on so we would all know to get out of there. Every morning we have a short meeting to get updates and talk about issues. I usually stand right under one of these red lights for the meeting. So there I was the other day, a few minutes early for the meeting. I looked up at the light and saw the warning label.

"This device is not to be used as an indoor evacuation signal or for the hearing impaired."

Why else would you make a rotating red light?

Happy Birthday, Natalie!

It's Natalie's 21st birthday. I hope she doesn't get too crazy! She has always been one that knows what she wants and works to get it. Like being a hammer for Halloween.

How could you not love this face?

Natalie if fun to be around and very talented. She is also very smart. Even though one of her sisters called her a "super dork" I think she is more of a super geek. That's not necessarily a bad thing! Keep working towards your goals.

I love you and miss you.

Happy Birthday, Jason!

Tomorrow is Jason's birthday! And he gets to share it with his best friend, Cindy Lou. So happy birthday to both of you. I'm kinda surprised Jason has made it this far. But I'm glad to have him around.

Happy birthday. I love you and miss you.

Which Is Better?

Peace of mind, or a piece of pie?

Who Thinks Of This Stuff?

Good news?

While I was unemployed for 7 months I spent a lot of time just sitting around. A lot of time. Because of that I had to loosen my belt 2 notches. Well, after about a month of working and being on my feet more I am happy to report that I got one of them back. Now I'm thinking about eating better and perhaps some actual exercise to get the other one back.
