Sure you don't want to hang onto it in case of a relapse?

If it comes to that I may just need and elephant gun

Thanks, I like to have fun too. I may be a bit slow typing at times with a 1 month old in one arm.

Welcome aboard. Don't worry about how fast you type, we're just here to fave fun!

What she said X2

So the latest group project drama...

I had a lovely, three-person group for my ever annoying management course this semester.

Another team was a group of four. Two of their team members dropped the class, one for no apparent reason, and the other because he had a torn ACL and will just miss too much time for this class. So my group now has five members. I called the professor to discuss the change with him, and he specifically told me that they were responsible for integrating into our team, not the other way around. I heard from one of our new team members (who seems like a hard worker who will likely be an asset to our team) right away. The other team member has not contacted me at all. The change was announced Thursday. It is now Sunday. So my professor got an email from me tonight saying that we had not heard from her. The good thing is that the professor had us do team contracts at the beginning of the semester, and to join our group, the two new team members have to abide by the terms of our contract. Problematic group members only get two warnings. If we get to three, we can eject them from the group. So...after I deal with this carp, I can have her on a very short leash.

I was hoping that this would be the one class where I wouldn't have to deal with any carp from team members. Guess it was too good to be true.

pixie dust for you at least it will be warm this week.

I told you all I'd be back here in two shakes of a lambs tail. Actually I didn't get to even shut my eyes.

Sympathy like.

Good morning I hope you all had a magical weekend. I can't believe I'm going to get to grill tonight. At least with the warmer weather moving in groundhogs won't become an endangered species

My boys may get to live my dh covered their behinds yet again and I wound up with a rather nice haul. A few Disney dollars is always welcome as is some kona coffee

I'm looking at the menu's with pictures, looks good to me. I want just about everything, but any fish items.

Haha. I want the fish items. I had the Salmon in the UK last time the booth was there and it was very very good. I want to try currywurst chips and whatever they are from Germany. Going to the Rose and Crown this year. Must remember not to swoon over the accents.

Of course I have to make up for my trip without schoolbread a couple years agi. Maybe one per day. I really have to learn how to make the recipe but it looks complicated.

Per the advice of @StarWarsGirl95 (this was a few months ago), she mentioned that her mother found it easy to keep a bag of cooked chicken in the freezer for quick meals. (StarWarsGirl95 puts some on her salads.) Anyway, I bought a bag of frozen Tyson grilled chicken strips and put them in a quick (30 minute) casserole yesterday with canned artichoke hearts, a box of frozen spinach (thawed), a little garlic, black pepper, some lower fat mayo, and 1/3 cup of parmesan cheese.

Came out really good--per hubby. I made it for him, because I don't like artichokes, but I did try some of the chicken and it was perfect. Saved a lot of time from cooking the chicken first, cutting it up, etc. Thanks, @StarWarsGirl95 for that tip. Figgy, maybe you could try that next time, too, since you cook for a lot of people. Might save you some time.

THNX I think 10 pounds of chicken per batch is my limit

Glad I could.....help...?

It's all good.

Spoiler: plot twist..

YOU READ RIGHT THE FIRST TIME

 

[MOXOMUMD]

No more snow (knock on wood) is what I'm hoping for. Now the ground needs to dry up some. There's so many branches down on my property from all the strong winds it's time to get out the tractor pick them all up.

Been there, done that!! Not on this forum, though. But welcome!

 

[Songbird76]

The only thing that would be fun about having that guy, would be watching late night comedians on T.V.

Well, there would be a plethora of material.

It certainly makes it challenging.
