Points And Prizes - Sheknows

Hello all...Hope everyone had a great Canada Day!

I had to work yesterday...our business operates 24/7/365 and we have to work 4 stat holidays each year. As much as I hated working the stat, if I can get my 4 mandatory stats out of the way early in the year at least I don't have to work Christmas. Besides, by working yesterday I get 2 1/2 X my regular pay. Can't complain about that!

At least I got out in time to take the family to the waterfront for the fireworks. Very beautiful...at least the ones I saw. I get the feeling something didn't go quite right. Crowds of people waiting hours for the show to begin...about 15 min after they started there seemed to be some commotion on the ground where the fireworks were being set off...then they just seemed to release them all at once...then that was it. Beautiful while it lasted but a very, very short show.

At least I have today off. I'm taking the kids back to the waterfront to play and hopefully burn off some energy. Two more months of this...


lolcat: Is today your surgery? (If so then I'm sure you're not even reading this post until days later) I hope everything goes smoothly for you..I'm sure it will be a relief when it's all over, in more ways than one. Take care and I hope they give you the good meds!

kekes: I was so sorry to hear about your loss of Red Riding Hood. I know exactly what you are going through, as I lost my kitty a couple of years ago. It was a very sudden illness, too...not exactly sure what happened. He was only 8 years old. I still miss him very much...

My heart goes out to you, kekes.

NSangel: I'm so relieved that Tabby took the lead in the SK contest! I knew that everyone here at SC would pull through for you. Can't wait until the results are posted. Way to go, Tabby!

We will now return to our regularly scheduled programming, already in progress....

thanks all for the new words
Well, when I see the word CENTRUM, I wonder if it is a way to advertise for the supplement brand, lol? Or it has become a daily word like Xerox or Cheerios already?

Happy Belated Canada Day!

Thanks to everyone for the new words (which I am finally able to enter on P&P).

Kekes, I am so so sorry, just know that Red Riding Hood was very lucky to have you as a friend.

NSangel, I am just now able to get onto the SK site (after trying every trick the Microsoft support people suggested, short of wiping the hard drive and reinstalling everything, the computer decided it was going to work happily again - it must have heard me threatening to let the cat use it as a scratching post). Argh@! I think I'll have to join the I hate Vista support group. Congrats to your Tabby!.

lolcat, surgery is fun, especially if you're awake and can flirt with the cute anaesthesiologist (I speak from experience). When I had major surgery 5 yrs ago (organ transplant), my best friend was waiting with me while they prepped me and the surgeon came in to introduce himself (original Dr had an emergency patient and couldn't operate). After he left, my friend told me I was so darn lucky I had such a cute Dr operating on me. She also warned me not to screw up the surgery or I wouldn't be able to flirt with the Dr when I was more presentable.

KEKES I'm very sorry about your pet.
Our 15 year old cat Solace was an inside/outside cat and always came back at supper every night until one night this October he just didn't come home....
I couldn't stop looking for him even though I knew he was old and probably just went off to pass away quietly somewhere.
It tore me up for months but it does get better with time. I promise.
Actually the picture I posted in the contest was the last picture I took with him a week before he was gone. I couldn't even look at the pic for a long time but now I love to look at the pix and laugh and remember what a funny little character he was. (It's gotten alot easier with time).
