30% raise!? I'd gladly work with Ahole fellow employees for that kinda raise. What a ringing endorsement from your boss!!! Good on you Rochie.

Cheers everyone.

went for an interview at the hotel today, seemed to go very well so i hope i get the job , it seems the right sort of challenge i'm needing at the minute, it'll be hard work but thats not really an issue.

speaking to my boss about it tomorrow and hoping her endorsement will swing it for me and then she will at least know what her future head chef is like when she takes over !

That's good news, Karl...good luck, hope it goes well for you!

As for me: I know this may not seem like news to anyone, but it's pretty dang significant for me...at some point last night, I rolled over onto my right side in my sleep and woke up that way. This is the first time since the wreck that I've been able to sleep on my side (which I always used to do, never slept on my back) because of the broken collar bone and all the broken ribs.

Looks like we're getting somewhere on this healing

sounds like you are healing well Dave, and long may it continue.

Sweet Dave! Day by day brother!

After several weeks of trying to figure out where the squeeky noise was coming from in the back end of my Ford Escape I finally figured it out. Hard to tell where those little squeeks and rattles are coming from exactly when sitting in the drivers seat. Even had tow people sit in that back and try to figure it out and they couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from.
Thank goodness it's squeek free now, it was starting to make me loose my marbles.

Good thing: Buying an eyedropper at the pharmacy today.
Not so good: Forgetting what I wanted it for.

Oh well, I'll figure out something.

For eye drops??
Or paint mixing??
Or maybe just to make a single ear ring ???

I remembered yesterday, it's for making custom mixed inks for my fountain pens.
Of course I can use the thing to add a few drops of water when I work with my water colours as well, that might be pretty practical.

My good things today?
Getting lots of praise from my boss today - and from my leader as well.
I guess that it shines through that I love my job, photographing and making videos.

Annnnd...friend Anja at another forum suggested that this might be something for me to knit.

Ah Ha! A 'Knitfire' !!
Or is it a Blenheim Mk Knit 1 Pearl 1 ?

You guys just have me in stitches...

Clearly looks like an Armstrong Knitworth...

 

[Capt. Vick]

What the stitch?
