95 bottles of beer on the wall, 95 bottles of beer. Take one down and pop the top. 94 bottles of beer left on the wall.

Oh what a day. They have changed our shift and it is now Monday thru Friday 8-7, Friday 8-? hopefully 5 and on our weekends off it is REQUIRED to put in at least 8hrs. It's our choice if we put them in on Sat or Sun or we can split them up between the two days. Gotta love it. Ahhhhh I think I'll take another bottle. 93 bottles left on the wall.

Off to bed. The heat from the fire has make me all nice and toasty and sleepy. Time to lay my head down. I hear my pillow calling my name.

Night, night!

Hi Lori :) Tell Ernie that yes, he does dentures. He has a website, too- you can see it here: Dr. Xavier Aguirre

There are many other dentists there. I went to this one because one of the people from here went to him when I went down last time. I had one of the staff there clean my teeth last time - and now I'm going to stop in and talk about getting some crowns. One of the ladies I'm friends with here goes to another dentist in the same town. I don't know the name, but know where it is and could get the name if interested.

All this said, I want to get the work done and the prices are right, but it's so hard to spend the money right now. Ah, we shall see.

Okies, I'm leaving early in the morn - just was checking the board before hand.

Ouch Echo - how can they call it a weekend off if you have to work? That sure doesn't make any sense. Your job would turn these cyber beers into the real thing for me.

Ah, what the heck - one more beer to help me sleep....... and that leaves 92 bottles of beer on the wall.

When it gets cold its time to through logs on the flames down in "Q" they throw palletts on the fire!!! met one gal and they really had a pile of palletts and would use several in a night think a cup of hot chocolate sounds really good maybe with marshmellows on it!!
so come to the fire bundle up in sweats and lab blankets and help me throw a pallett on be care of those nails though and it will take 3-4 of us to place in on......

Hey Sheila. I woke up and stumbled down to the fire to get warm. I'll help you throw some pallets on. Gee---I haven't handled pallets in years but have sure handled my share in another lifetime. I remember having to go outside at work to get pallets on a fork truck---20 below zero. There is nothing like driving outside through an open doorway in that kind of weather. One time I dropped a wheel off the concrete pad backing up to push the door closed and had to wait for an hour for another trucker to come and give me a shove back on the concrete----in the cold. Memories I'm sure glad I don't have to do any more. I just threw a couple pallets on the fire and grabbed a cup of hot chocholate. I brought some chocolate chip cookies too---warm out of the oven. I can't sleep tonight. I also checked to see if my great nephew had gotten in from Iraq yet. His plane is over 12 hours late. Bummer.

Got my blankie over my lap (windy and cool here this morning - 66 might not sound cold to most of you - but it's freezing to me right now with this wind LOL) - enjoying the fire and have a cup of hot chocolate - oh yeah :) Think I might have to make some soup later on.

Just got an email from my neice and Nathan is home---back in North Carolina. He is in the Marines. His plane was 14 hours late but I know he is glad to be back in the States. He got in between 1 am and 2 and had to be at work this morning for 4 hours!!! I'm taking two bottles off the wall to celebrate. I think that leaves 90 bottles of beer on the wall!! (92-2=9) ROFL Save some soup for me too!!

This must be the day for chocolate chip cookies as I've got some in the toaster oven right now. Real ones--not even packaged or anything, as is my usual M.O. So,. here's to all of you and to Nathan! Eat up while they're still hot and gooey.
