DG wouldn't open for me earlier but it's ok now.

I am still feeling the effects of weeding the iris bed yesterday - took abt 4.5 hours!! I hadn't touched it since they quite blooming. May have lost one or two dwarfs that were too wet under all those weeds. Dummy me! Remind me to get Preen down early next year. I picked the tomatoes and raspberries and spent 3 hours on DG and internet also yesterday. That was a great day! I wanted to bake something but no yeast in the house and ran out of milk too.

DH listed our shop bldg for sale on Fri and tonight the realtor brought an offer - our asking price! Wow, we're kinda blown away with that. They also want to close in 30 days. I think they knew that DH was unsure abt selling and was probably going to take it off the market so they offered the full price. It's a good thing to sell it tho, taxes and insurance aren't cheap and as long as we have no truck now, there's no reason to have a truck shop that holds 4 trucks, plus an office on the side. We may sell the house too and move to Larchwood, which is 10.5 miles north and will take my commute down to 16-17 miles. That would be great. Besides, our shopping and entertainment is almost all in Sioux Falls too. We shall see.....

Bah humbug at work today - I managed to get another Work Performance - this is #6 and #7 is automatic termination. I was talking to a gal beside me, not much but apparently supervisor saw me. Never mind the fact that I was on HOLD for 101 mins but I'm not allowed to do anything or talk to anyone while on HOLD. Ridiculous!! These calls are supposed to be identical to hearing peeps calls - now how many of you would do nothing while on hold for 101 mins? The caller told me she vacuumed and dusted and finished her dishes while we were holding but I can't even say a few words to the gal next to me? grrrr! I can't see me staying here for too long, too many ridiculous rules. Rules and me don't get along well - ever the rebel! lol

Bed is calling, sorry, just skim read today since it's so late.
