Found it

Happy Friday!  Hope it’s a great day for you.  I am pleased to report that I found the photo’s I was looking for and didn’t create any left over clutter.  I managed to find an old photo of me and my brother.  The photo was back from when I was in a friends wedding.  The photo was one of the good times that we had together.  I kept thinking what in the world went wrong and why can’t we both be this happy with each other today?  For a brief moment I thought about sending him a copy with the tag line remember this?  However, that was a quick fleeting thought.  I have thoughts of rekindling our relationship but the cold truth is that it’s just not going to happen. 

Moving on things at work are a bit busy this morning.  Change is the name of the game.  People getting different tiles, leaving and starting.  That part of my job is never ending.  Sometimes people leaving hurts and other times it brings a smile to my face, especially for some if it’s not their choice.  I hate to see anyone loose their job but some people just don’t workout.  Sometimes you figure that out early and other times it takes years and years to learn.  Sure wish my bosses boss got the ax there would be a celebration at least I’d have one!

Speaking of changes I modified the documentation for the procedure that is changing and sent it to my lazy ass co-worker asking him to review it and provide feedback.  I’ve heard nothing yet but maybe he will respond today.  I am not holding my breath.  Many times I have to send an email over and over to get a response.  However, when he sends me something I act and respond quickly.  Perhaps I am going to have to provide him the same lack luster service he is providing me.  It’s not in me it’s like having an itch and knowing you have to scratch.  Doing a shitty job is just foreign to me.  Not to say I don’t make mistakes. 

The Amazon person dropped off all of my order.  I was disappointed with the toy I got for the cats.  I thought I was getting two of them and only got one.  It’s called an electronic yo-yo ball.  I charged it up and got it out last night.  It doesn’t do well on carpet (even low pile).  I moved it to the bathroom and got their attention.  They were both scared of it at first.  Rudy just was beside himself.  Mora however eventually started smacking it around.  That’s the way to quiet it down.  Then she stared at it and it came back to life.  She pounced on it.  After a few short minutes she lost interest and Rudy was still so confused.  I powered it off and put it up.  I am waiting until they express an interest in playing and I will power it up and give it another try.  Right now it’s kind of a disappointment to me. 

My Shark Stain Striker carpet cleaner works pretty well.  I’m happy with what I got but there is no room on board to store attachments that was disappointing.  The cats just watched me as I cleaned the carpet.  They were interested as to what I was doing and not the least bit afraid of the noise.  Getting this ready and using it will be much simpler than having to haul out the big unit which I haven’t used in at least two years.  It’s a hassle and it’s a one tank system with a plastic bladder for the soapy water.  I hate it but paid good money for it so I use it.  It got a lot of use when I had Momma’s family.  Someone was always getting sick or having an accident.  If they ever do get sick in my bathroom or the kitchen those are laminate floors and much quicker and easier to clean.  However, it’s a rare exception to have a cat get sick on either of those floors.

I am really enjoying my Brookstone Dark Chocolate Covered Blueberry’s.  I found these at Sam’s years ago and have been addicted ever since.  Sam’s in my area no longer carries them.  It’s a product of Canada and very tasty!

I got a call from the waste management company and turns out the bad weather we had put them a day behind.  They said they would try to make it here today but if they failed to show, fear not as they would be here on Saturday.  A lot of my neighbors banked on that message and didn’t set their trash out.  However, the majority of the neighborhood followed suit and put their trash out as normal.  That’s what I did I don’t like to take chances.  I think it would be hilarious if they would come by this afternoon and pick up those of us who took the time to set our cans out in the pouring rain.  It’s going to rain for the next couple days so were all going to get wet. 

I started this post early and it’s been one side track or another from work.  It’s very busy for a Friday.  I am doing reasonably well for a guy who was up from 2-4 am for no reason at all.  I ate some peaches, used the restroom and hung out with Mora in my room.  We watched TV.  Eventually I headed back to bed and she came to cuddle and hug me.  That is magic and works like a charm to get me back to sleep.  Problem is she only does it when she wants and not when I want or need it.  Feels like I am sleeping with a large stuffed animal.  She’s stuffed alright with all the food she ate that I bought.  Rudy was guarding the living room.  He came in a half hour early today and of all days that I needed/wanted to sleep he worked his magic to get me out of bed.  I think they both have me figured out and know how boss me around.  They get food, treats and cat nip on a schedule.  Treats & Cat Nip are the two items that Mora begs for.  Rudy only asks for Breakfast.  If he gets hungry later he will bug me for food but typically I am on a schedule and they both go with it. 

I am going to publish this and then get back to work.  Looking forward to things calming down so that I can relax a bit.  Hope your having a great Friday and that your weekend is well.  Talk with you peeps later!
