Can you imagine ..... receiving free booze in the mail!!!!

Long ago I remember sitting in a bar with some friends and there was a live band that was really quite good but there just weren't many patrons there to see.... we got on a conversation about the issue and somehow decided that a perfect name for a band just starting out playing the bar circuit would be FREE BEER. The marquis out front would read LIVE TONIGHT.... FREE BEER
bet that would bring in the crowds.

LOL, that would be funny. I saw a sign in a bar the other day that said, "Free Beer Tomorrow."

Well the weekend is here and I am not prepared for it. D12 had a pretty bad cold two weeks ago. S18 and I thought we had dodged a bullet. Well it appears we didn't. He got sick about 3 days ago and I come down with it yesterday.

I was downing orange juice and zinc like it was steak and potatoes. Comtrex is my new best friend, along with Goody powders. Still feel like crap. Just as well, GF came home today from her job with a migraine and said, "GET OUT!" I thought Linda Blair had possessed my GF and her head would spin around. She said she couldn't stand any noise or anyone to be around her when her head was this bad. So I am sitting at home on a Friday night with nothing to do but try and get over this cold.

Hi Fender,

Sure hope a night of rest has you feeling a bit better today.

I just made some fresh ground coffee if you would like a cup to go with your oj, zinc and comtrex!

Hey Pam, the weekend went some what better but not a lot. GF not only had the migraine but got shots in her feet for foot pain and that just amplified the pain factor. To top it off her heatpump died and need replacing.

My cold is holding on for dear life and seems to be winning the battle. This if the first cold I have had in years and man it is one humdinger.

On a positive note S18 has a job interview tomorrow. It is a job that works hand in hand with his school. They allow him to work around his classes.

I also have a job interview tomorrow. My first one since retiring and I hope it goes well? Time will tell. Wish me luck.

I almost forgot, Wednesday is divorce court. Barring any unforseen road blocks I will be divorced Wednesday. I must say it has been a long year waiting for this day. I hope it turns out to be anti-climatic and there is no drama. STBXW says she is still in agreement with our original agreement and she plans no changes. Time will tell.

The interview, well telephone interview, went very well. I talked to the head HR guy, he is retired Air Force, like myself. Well that was at 0900hrs this morning, at 1830hrs (0630pm) I get a call from the company. The lady was very apologetic for calling so late but asked if I was available for another interview, this time in person? I said sure and she said good because her boss wanted me to get interviewed this week. She said this normally doesn't happen so fast but I really impressed her boss over the phone and he said make it happen this week. So good news there.

More good news, S18 got a job today. He is in a welding program at the local community college training to become a certified pipe welder. Meanwhile a local company in need of welders worked a deal with the school for some students to try out for a welding job. S18 went in today and nailed the welding test. Two separate supervisors were arguing over who would get him before he left. I am so proud of him and happy that now he will not come to me for every dime he needs.

Fig, tomorrow I become single however I'm not really available. GF and I have been in a relationship for nearly 7 months and if I am one thing it is faithful.
