Ever hd one of those days when you have to just shake your head and walk away? I had one yesterday. Where I work is fairly far from the front office and it’s a bit of a walk to get there. As a result, instead of takiing 10 mins for every cup of coffee, we have been using a thermos I brought from home to take coffee back to the inspection office. We had previously brought creamer and sugar back when I first started working in there. When we ran out of creamer, I brought back another can. Well that opened a can of worms. Apparently, we aren’t supposed to take it away from the coffee area. Yesterday, I inquired about where I could get another can of sugar, which prompted a nastygram from my director stating that taking coffee supplies like that was abuse. Now I don’t know about anyone else, but what is the point of having the coffee in the office if I still have to walk up front to make the cup? They say the coffee is for everybody, but if it was I think they would put it in the breakroom. I feel like I’m in one of those bank commercials where the kid gets to ride the bike but only in the itty bitty box delineated. Oh well. If they would rather I spend my time walking around the plant getting coffee than working, it’s fine with me.

Wow! Been a while!
I have moved my blog to a real host now 😀 Yay me! I got tired of either my internet or private server not behaving properly. And they never behave at the same time.
Special thanks to Lacaille, of Aerandria Scans for hosting for me. Visit Aerandria.net to say thanks and click on a few things :^^:
And now for the updates. As stated in and earlier post, I am no longer working nights. I have been moved to day shift. This happened back in August. It was either days or get layed off. I took days. Nothing like a little financial motivation to make up your mind for you. The work is ok and I really get along well with the other person in the dept. Sooo, all in all not a bad trade.
Boys are fine. We have semi-adopted my oldest son’s best friend AJ. He’s been great so far. Any one who does housework is great as far as i’m concerned and he does lots of it. Very much appreciated too. He is currently job hunting so he can get car insurance and save up for tuition. Plus the 2 younger boys really like having him around.
Husband will be having back surgery on the 22nd of Feb. He’s looking forward to it. Anything has to be better than 10 yrs of chronic pain. >.<
I'm looking forward to having my hubby back at 100%… ok 70%.
Going to AS9100 training the first week of March in Cape Canaveral Fla. Looking forward to spending some chilly evenings on the beach studying. I get to learn how to be an auditor. Lots of people need this service and it will look good on my resume.
That's about all that is going on around here for now. Perhaps I will post more later…
A Presence on the Planet
This week includes 3 birthdays in my family. My oldest son’s, mine, and my youngest son’s. So close to another significant (to some) birthday, this is a very busy month for us. Makes me think about what we are actually celebrating – the anniversary of someone’s presence on the planet and in our lives.
I celebrate my birthday because I am thrilled to be alive. I don’t hide my age, i crow about it. I am 41 today. I spend the day thanking God that I was born, and for the people that I have had the privilege of being around. My sons’ birthdays I spend making them crazy – I like hugs and they don’t. 
I celebrate birthdays because I am thankful that the people in my life were born and for the enrichment they give to my life. I’m glad I got to meet you and to know you. Thanks for being on the planet. :party:

New installs, contrary upgrades, i’ll be surprised if this even posts…
Bot Solved
Dinoex, the Software Developer of Iroffer, fixed the problem with my irc bots. Apparently there is a kernel bug that prevent sendfile from working with cifs. Dude stayed up till 6am coding a workaround for it and had it uploaded for use for me to try tonight. Worked like a charm. Head over to his site and check it out, and think about a donation. I mean really, if M$ had support like this, linux wouldn’t stand a chance. Thanks Dinoex, you’re the best 🙂 :^5: :^5: :^5:
