Was that last picture part of the "pinhead socks" team?

Mine cleared completely after 6 weeks. I had a bad reaction to the prednisone they gave me though. Had to let it run its course. Dh still says he still gets itchy spots on his knees where he had it. Horrible stuff. We do have this soap now that we use any time after we weed. It removes poison ivy sap or whatever it is off the skin. If you use it within an hour of exposure you are good.

That's good to know about that soap. I recall getting poison ivy as a kid, and it was not big deal -- maybe it stayed for about a week or whatever. (My mother, who often created "remedies" from things already in the kitchen cabinets, made a "paste" with baking soda and water, to reduce the itch.) Worked quite well, actually.

It seems as though it's a worse reaction as you get older from what I've seen in others, but I don't have any actual data to back that up.

O.k. Give it up -- did your "socks" team win or lose?! I LOVE the picture of the man with the bowling ball "hat"!! :hilarious:

Food looked really good, by the way. Heck, I'd even stand there with a sign, "Will wear stupid socks for food" :joyfull:

OK, so silliness, in a good way, has ensued...
So, as I’m stuck in traffic yesterday on my way home from our Half-day Friday office bowling, food, and booze event I get a call from oldest DD.
Oldest DD: “Hey pop, wanna’ go to Disney World for a day!?”
Me: “Are you serious...?!”
Non-refundable airfare has already been purchased, so a day at the Magic Kingdom on Sept. 3rd it is...!!!!!!! :joyfull::hilarious::happy::)
No FastPass’s, no hoppers, no ADRs, no checked bags.
We arrive at MCO at 10:21a, and our flight back to Austin leaves MCO at 10:10p.
The only unfortunate part is I’m the only one of us 4 here at home that can swing it...nobody else can take the time off. :(
I said that I didn’t wanna’ go if nobody else could, but, they were all insistent that I go.
Oldest DD and SonIL have been wanting to fly somewhere with Emy for just a day since she was about 6 mos. old. Maybe WDW, NYC, LA, SF, etc., just to see how she does on a plane, but, plans just didn’t work out.
Now, they have. They, of course, also realized that none of the rest of us could probably make it on such short notice, but, are darn happy that I can.
Oldest DD said that she is grateful for her mother and I instilling her love of Disney in her, and also me for her love of flight...!!!!! :happy:
So, there it is...didn’t see that comin’, did y’all...???!!!!!!! :D:joyfull::hilarious:;):happy:

Hahaaa...!!!!! :hilarious:
We didn’t lose, per se ;), but we came in 3rd, just like I did in the individual ax-throwing competition...!!! :)
We work hard, but, they also let us play hard from time to time...!!! ;)
Another funny thing from yesterday...
One of our newer hires was on our team.
We had a good laugh when she stated she was born in 1997 and I told her our youngest of 3 was born in 1994...!!!!! :hilarious:
And, as I’ve stated before, I really enjoy working with the younger folks, and I’ve never been a grouchy old man to them...I wouldn’t still be there if I was...I learn from them, they learn from me...but, admittedly, they don’t get many of my “Caddy Shack”, “Animal House”, “Stripes”, etc., movie references...!!!!! :hilarious:
Bottom line, it’s darn-hard work much of the time, but, the partners obviously go out of their way, and do their best to take care of their employees too...!!!!! :happy:
