Favorite Moments this Week from Work

1) I was behind a pretty big tree weeding. I sneezed pretty big twice. Then I hear this voice from the other side of the tree. "Gesundhuit! I hope you don't have allergies." It was just a friendly guy out for a walk in the park. He made me smile. :)

2)Me in a light southern accent: "I have mud on my feet."
My boss: "Are you from Texas?" He tried to southern-up the last word. "cause the way you said that sounded like it." Then he started making up a country song. This is as far as he got: "i have mud on my feet, and I feel so defeat..."
This just goes to show how punchy we get on Fridays...

3) My boss and I drive around this little golf cart, and as we were driving around he decided that we needed to pick up one of the sprinkler flags we had put out that morning. He drove past it and I just leaned over and snagged it. I felt soo Ninja.

A Chance Moment

The other day, my family and I were eating dinner at Which Wich. We happened to be there at the same time as a cute little girl and her family. As they were leaving, Cute Girl decided that she wanted more chips. She trotted over to the counter, grabbed another bag of chips, and started to go back to her parents. Her mom, under no uncertain terms, told her to put the chips back; they had already had chips that night. "No." Was the simple reply, and Cute Girl started running in circles around her mom.
"Put them back. We already had chips tonight."
"No."
"We already bought you chips. Put them back"
"No."
This went on for a little longer before an older lady with the family got up from their table and walked towards the door.
Cute girl: "Gramma!" She went to go follow her out.
Her mom: "Put the chips back first."
Girl: "OK!"

She ran to go put the chips back and then followed her Grandmother out the door. The power of Grandmothers. :)

Cave

I finally did it. I started my own blog. We'll see how well this works out or if I abandon it in a couple months. It'll also be interesting to see who actually will read and comment on this travel into the cave of my mind, but whatever. I hope it'll be fun for all :)

Lessons I've learned #1: I discovered this week why my current job pays more than my last job: no one, in their right mind, would volunteer their time for this kind of work eight hours a day. But hey, the money makes it worth it.
