Since its so hot here, the beers tend to be lighter and more refreshing rather than heavy, dark and filling.
Thanks for the intel... if you see some good, dark beer, send me a bottle... I'll pay up front if you want me to...

feel for ya Mad, at least you don't have to yell at work anymore..
only dark stuff?? was gonna get you some canadian 'do right' stuff.
let me pick a few...if Angie calls me, then I got it right.

little projects today and I blew one appointment, hate when that happens.
12:30pm and I thought 3:30pm.......arrrgh

04CTD, you're killin' me with that cookie picture, man I can even smell how good they were....but i am still ready for no nut brownies, gonna try to make it like Angie's.....they were gooooooooooood!

CHAIKWA- left you a phone message. no need to reply, just get the info.

made nice supper, even sick son ate well. makes mom happy when that happens....everything is clean, dishes done, parts in for trailer to get done.
truck cleaned out (needed it!!) and off to Bro-in -law's to play lumberjack..

well, husband says I can haul trees to mill or even get to flat trim (after being felled) MAYBE! careful careful, yeah yeah....good day's work if we get twenty trees to mill, bro has to buy us lunch if we get twenty before noon! so we leave at 6AM tomorrow,
amazing what we will do for free food.....
stinks that while bro-in-law drove new daughter in law to new place in NC, an idiot stole some borrowed tools and his chainsaw from the barn. we are trying to improve the situation, quietly.

My selection here is limited to Bintang and Tiger beers.
Bintang is a local indoneasian brewery, Tiger is Indian I think.

neither are very good.

Evening all

Had a good day. Work went by fast, seemed like I just started and it was time to go home. Gota love it when it works out like that.

Went and worked out tonight so should sleep like a baby tonight.

Sounds like a fun day Heidi, trade you jobs for a day or two. Love being out in the bush felling and bucking up logs.

Got the low down on the whiskey and put my order in with the father in law. Hope they haven't drank it all and he can find a bottle.

Time to get some ZZZZZ nighty night...

i make the wife get up early, she HATES traffic so much, it's easier to get up 15 mins earlier than hear her yell at cars while i drive.

made it through.
feel like a real grown up, went to my first City Council meeting last night.

they are trying to re-zone 26 acres by my development into Commercial.
whoever said "you can't fight City Hall" never took 50 upset folks in there.
it felt good to see so many folks in our little development take part in the decision making process.

but, on the down side, i think i got elected as the un-official leader

Hey, gorgeous day to ya'll. Just did my little tanning thing, read the Journal, had some more coffee. Working off the effects of the PET scan this morning. Man I hate that thing - - they almost simulate the feeling of a heart attack. Not fun, but great results. The doc was quite happy and gave a full thumbs up. That is scary - - I will be sure to wear my crash helmet for the next seven days - - seems like that is when nasty things happen. Says the scan and ekg's were better than last year's so keep doing what I am doing. Yeh, OK - - sounds good to me. Yeh, more tanning - - more foo foo - - more goofing off - - more time on treadmill.

Heidi Heidi Heidi - - felling trees???? Common girl - - you ain't superwoman regardless of what you feel like. Settle down and take care of yourself - - you worry me.

OK, no one put the foo on again today, so the pot is on, I got mine and I am out of here. Have a great one.

Bob

Looks like I forgot to clock out yesterday....

Oh well, someone will straighten out the time cards.

Moved hotels yesterday since the one I was at had no room for a co-worker. This one is MUCH nicer but there is a mosque close enough that morning prayer woke me.

I had a professor in college that called many of the countries "Post card countries". I kinda passed it off, but I finally understand what he meant.
If you ever get a chance to visit southeast asia, pass. Sure prices are reasonable, but its not that great of a place.
