Month End Sucks

Quick post. Month End sucks. Trying to hit all these numbers my company wants us to hit is a bitch. We have gotten a lot busier, and it is going to get better. The business that we are taking in this week is a little too late. If I can pull this off this month I will be surprised. I will be working like hell, and not posting the rest of the week, but I will catch everybody up this weekend.

Thanks to Shumpy for the plug on his site. We should be making it to H8P. Hope to see y'all there.

Go Cowboys!!!!

A SUNDAY WITHOUT COWBOYS

Well, it will be a Sunday without the Dallas Cowboys. It almost makes me want to stay in bed all day. Too bad I can't. I haven't slept in in ages. I got up this morning around 4am. Watched a little bit of T.V., and went back to bed. I got up around 8am. I went to Wally World to check on a weedeater, and dream a little bit. I just love that store. I walked up and down most of the aisles. I stayed out of the clothing departments, but hit just about every other department. I have now found the clearance aisle in this Wal-Mart. I always have to check that aisle out. You can actually find some good buys there sometimes. After Wally World, I came home and mowed the lawn. I can't wait for payday, because I really need that weedeater.

The Softball Queen had another tournament yesterday. They lost their first game, so that meant that we had to work our way through the loser bracket. They won their second game, and then had a break. So all the mothers had a great idea to go feed them. Well what happens when you feed teenagers in the middle of the hot day? Your right. They all come back and feel sick. So needless to say, they lost their third game, and were elminated from the tournament. They should have won, but nobody was hitting yesterday. The SBQ did get the game winning hit in their second game. She actually has an average. I need to work on her timing. We are definitely hitting the batting cages this week. The one hit she did get was beautiful though. She made great defense plans in all the games. She played third and short stop. I was extremely proud of her. Tammy is the team mom and is doing a great job. She is worn out today. I have let her sleep all morning. It is keeping her busy, and that is a good thing.

I have got a full work week next week. We have to basically do as much work this week as much as we have done all month to make our numbers. I now we can do it as long as the work load stays with us. This town is weird. It slows down when it should be busy. We wil do it some how. Probably will just have to work a lot to get there. I am ready to get it where we have hit our numbers at least a day or two before the end of the month.

Watching the Nascar Race in Dover right now since the Cowboys aren't playing today. They play the Titans next week. We should be able to beat them as long as the Tuna doesn't make any stupid decisions. They definitely got the talent to win.

I am not really going to do much more today but watch the race, and rest a little bit before this next week. I hope you all have a great week, and if someone has a job for Shumpy let him know, or donate money. I know he will except either. I know he is rested and ready to work after his vacation. It looks like they had a great time. Go and check out his pics on his site. Too bad he can't make money off his site, because it is one of the best blog sites that I have seen. Good luck on the job search buddy.

BE COOL

Just another day

Well it was just another day in Bama. Went to work, went to a school meeting on the softball team, and came home and worked again. Same old same old. One good thing that came about was that tonight The Unit and Smith premiered tonight. I have been waiting forever for these two shows to start. I am so addicted to T.V. shows its not even funny. My second vice is now is working on the laptop while watching T.V. Technology has ruined me.

My good buddy Shumpy just got back from his cruise and it looks like he had a blast. He even sent me a picture that I don't think too many people are going to see. I know he did it just to make me jelous. Which I am. I would love to go on vacation. This boy goes on more vacations in a year then anybody I know. You gotta love him for it. I know he and Big Dog had a great time.

Well Rosie Commented last night that I should have responded to her comment last night first because she is a lady. I am sorry about that Rosie. I should have been more of a gentleman, but I was responding back in order of the emails coming in. I will remember to keep it ladies first. Of course now Shumpy is going to be mad, because he knows he is my bitch. JK.

Well that's it from Bama land. Until next time.

BE COOL.

NEW CHANGES

Well maybe ya'll have noticed. I have switched over to the new beta version of blogger. It makes it a lot easier for a computer illiterate like me to change the appearance of my site. I have played with a little bit, and think I am going to enjoy the new way. It is hard for me to change things around though. I am not real thrilled about change. Even though in the last few months I have changed about everything in it. We have moved to another state, took a job I didn't believe I wanted, and yes I don't goof off as much as I used to. Change is good sometimes, but not good others. You just have to pick and choose. Hopefully you choose right. Well I got to get to bed. I worked too much on business tonight, and on changing the site around a little bit. So I have to make this one short.

Congrat's before for I go to Shakey Dave on him and his wife having their baby daughter in August. You will have to send me some pics. I promise not to post them.

Tim it was good to hear from you also. I will post more

And last, but not least Rosie. Keep reading and commenting. Hope everything is going good for you.

BE COOL.

BEING CONNECTED AT HOME CAN BE A CURSE

Since I am connected at home now, I will be bringing a lot more work home. That way I don't have to stay at work so late at night, but it also means that I have to do everything a little bit slower than at work. My secured network keeps dropping me when I am in he middle of doing business stuff. So I have to keep signging. I am not the most patient person, as some of ya'll know. So I get a little frustrated when I am on work's network.

Today went pretty good at work. I found out that "Little E" is going to build a race track down here pretty soon. I can't wait for that. I will probably get a job promotion before the first race is held down here though. I did find out though that I will be able to go to Talladega in the spring with a vender. Starting to gain some of the benefits of the job promotion. I can't wait until the race in the spring. I know there is one in October, but the vender that is going to take us only does it during the spring race. Which when its free you know I am not going to bitch.

The Cowboys play the fagskins, oops, I mean the redskins. We better beat the socks off of them Sunday. I just pray it is not going to be like last year where we lost to them in the last few minutes. I will be praying and wearing my old Dallas Cowboy T-shirt and not the new one I wore last Sunday.

We went to the Softball Queen's practice tonight for one of her teams. She is in two different tournaments this weekend, but it looks like we will only be playing in one of them due to one of the coaches didn't get us registered in one of the tournaments. They were going to be at different times, but still two in one weekend is a little much. We have a meeting with the school about her playing this year for the high school next week. I am interested in hearing what they have to say. They went to state semi-finals last year. I haven't really been impressed with the talent out here. I was worried that she might be a little behind the curve out here, but she is one of the better players. I know she will do good here.

Well gotta sign off so I can get to bed. BE COOl & GO COWBOYS.

BACK AGAIN IN BAMA

Well, I doubt there is anybody out there reading this anymore, but I am going to start writing again. I have finally gotten connected here in Bama now. It has been one hell of a ride since we have moved here. I got a job transfer, and a promotion if ya'll didn't know. We have been here since the end of July. I have taken over one of my company's store. I was in shambles. I came out in June to clean it up and interview people for the position I am in now, and some how ended up getting the job that I was interviewing people for. It was pretty scary moving three states away, but it has turned into a pretty good time.

Each month it is getting better at work. It is finally turning around. I am under staffed though. I will make this work. Even if it kills me. I am learning so much that I didn't know about this job. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel though.

I finally got to get on the net and see what everybody is up to. The Blonde hasn't posted in a while, and Chuck as had to quit blogging. I understand his reasons, but it seems my world is getting a little smaller. Shumpy is on a cruise right now. I hope him and Big Dog have a great time. He and I have been playing phone tag for the last month.

The Softball Queen is adjusting to the area fine. She is already on two different teams and tries out for the high school team in November. She has found a little friend here, and seems to be making more.

Tammy is adjusting, but misses home. She has been in the hospital twice since we have been here. She has found a Bingo hall though and won some money last weekend.

I haven't gotten to play any golf yet, but hopefully I get to Sunday. Bama isn't too bad, but the people are a little to laid back. I am a very aggressive person when it comes to work, and I expect everybody else to be. These people down here just want to get by. I have never seen anything like it. I am motivating most of my staff, and showing them what can come about if everybody does there job. They were so used to just getting by. We are getting things turned around, and this job is going to make me a hero with my company (hopefully.) The good thing is if this thing doesn't work out my sciences are good for 5 years and I can always go to nursing school. I haven't given up on that idea yet. We will see what happens at the end of this year.

Well enough blah, blah from me. Hope everyone out there is doing good, and don't worry I am and always will be a True Texan no matter where I live.

On a sad note the COWBOYS lost Sunday. I couldn't believe it. They came out like gang busters, and then didn't wake up as usual until the last two minutes of the game. Which you can't win them all in the last two minutes. You have to play the whole game. Deadsoe again has a problem finding the open man because he is probably not the first one of the play to get the ball. Three interceptions? What is the Can of Tuna thinking? I guess that is why they pay him more for one game then I make in a year. What do I know though. I am just a dumb ol' Cowboy fan. I am still a fan through the thick and thin, but something has got to give with Deadsoe.

Well I hope somebody reads this.

Go Cowboys!!!!
