'Tis the season! Last band concert for DD tomorrow. DS is playing jazz at college Wednesday (lab band) and Thursday (Jazz Band), and Saturday is a celebration of Bernstein's 100th. Looking forward to the West Side Story suites, not the 8 PM start time with that one. Looks like I will be out past my bedtime.

I am gonna be so cultured!

How exciting! Will be worth being out past your bedtime.

Gotta love circular logic.

now I wonder if he just doesn't expect a WOMAN to be at the position of asset Management and just disregarded you as a lowly grunt.

Well, my counterpart is a woman, my boss is a woman...you want men, the only ones from my team are in India.

I am the only female in my office. I wish I had that situation! Someday another one will come in..I keep hoping anyway

I work with a bunch of IT guys. And they have to come to me a good bit for permission to install software or give out a new PC. I honestly love having that kind of control. Not that I abuse it, but it's kind of fun to have a bunch of guys come ask permission from a tiny woman.

They also like me enough to have lunch with me every now and then as well.

And here I was thinking you were rooting for the Christx3 (Chris Evans, Chris Pratt, Chris Helmsworth)

One of my favorite Christopher's. His heavy metal albums were really good!

I wish I would have been more friendly with coworkers and employees when I was in my 20s. I didn’t have lunch with them, I didn’t have after work drinks with them.. I wanted to keep such a professional relationship at all times.. because I felt like being social with them would lesson their respect for me..basically had a chip on my shoulder. I regret it. I’m friendly with the people I work with now, and we’ve had some good times together. I shouldn’t have waited until my late 30s to do that. So... basically Good Job to You!

You run?????

Yes, I can run--well, sort of a slow, ungainly trot (not exactly graceful)--kind of lopsided, like horses when they trot!

 

[MinnieM123]

If nothing else you should lean how to do hemming and button replacement. Seeing T is slim you should also learn to run a straight stitch so you can take things in. As I said find a local sewing machine store. Most give at least one lesson included with purchase and give additional classes as needed.

We had a sewing store around here for some years, and they had lessons. Unfortunately, the store couldn't stay afloat, and closed. There's nothing like that around here anymore. I used to know a lot more people that sewed years ago. I learned in high school and could sew seams, etc. Nothing fancy, but I could sew some basic things and do repairs.

My sewing machine at home has been in a box now for probably 13 years.

Has anyone done Ancestry DNA?

Nope. I've heard of it, but I'm not interested in it. I know enough about my DNA.

My fear is what they do with the personal information you give them (over a period of time).

There is enough information out there and there is some stuff that I wish that wasn't known to the public at all.

I'm sorry. I don't know about the candles. I focused on the Renaissance Fair and the bakery. I enjoyed a blueberry scone

Yah, I'd also take a scone over a candle any day!

 

[MinnieM123]

I have issues with those companies as well. I mean once you do it, someone has your DNA. I have seen too many sci-fi movies and thrillers apparently.

Yes. TV and movies have ruined us.

LOL......good post

Yesterday was an awfully good day for being born. Although I may be a bit biased in that viewpoint

Happy Belated Birthday!!!
