    Hi~

    Finally got some new pictures up. Takes me forever to do that.
     
    Today was just another boring day. Hubby's been working out of town all week. And has for the last 3 weeks and will probably be again next week. I can't wait until this project is over.
     
    Hubby gets the new guy - always. He's had a few questionable ones, but this one's a doozy. He's mid 30's and has been working with Hubby about 3 months. My husband is a hard worker, works pretty much a 10 hour day and this guy mostly stands around doing nothing. He doesn't like physical labor (and there's not a whole lot of that) but he's got a smart mouth and is an all around jerk. He's recently laid off from General Motors and what he did there really doesn't qualify him for this job. But he tells Hubby that he doesn't 'do' physical labor....he's a craftsman.
     
    Most of what they do is about schematics, blueprint reading and computer stuff. They do have to do some physical work and some is pretty hard. Yesterday, Hubby told him to go do something and the guy says, "You got tools, do it yourself".
     
    What he doesn't know is that his probation time is about up and Hubby will be the first person they talk to. And nobody else in the group will work with him! I guess his economic stiuation is better than most people's.
     
    My kids are getting older. My youngest wants to borrow some boots I have. Pretty soon we'll be sharing the same old, gray button-up sweater.
     
    My son-in-law was supposed to be sent to Iraq a few weeks ago but since they are trying to get all the troops out, he was rescheduled to go to Afghanistan. However, he is now on a peace keeping mission in Somalia. Thank you, Lord! He'll be stationed on a ship, I guess and will go to the hospital everyday.
     
    Well, I need to pay some bills and do some housework. Lola isn't liking that Hubby has been gone all week and is a little rambunctous.
     
    Take care~

    p.s. Why don't they have a spell check on this thing??! Like I can spell Afghanistan!!

    I always wanted Bells to call me Nonna, the Italian name for grandmother (just to be different) but she has her own ideas. Since she was a baby, every time she walked into my house I would say, "Hi, Boo-boo!" I guess that she decided that would be my name! I love it, too, Dana.

    Life is good. hugs,g

    Once again, beautiful grandkids!

    I think I remember your husband having a new guy who acted this way. Is this the same one? How does he figure he can keep a job with that attitude? I hope he doesn't have a family depending on him.

    Give me a call when you get lonely. I've been sick all week but can make time for you!

    Have a great weekend, g
