Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is having a great weekend :) I had a long and stressful day yesterday. I've been working with a real B team the past few weeks, on some media stuff. I had to re-write a press-release in the morning, because they'd inexplicably changed the date it was being released, and another, I had to re-write no less than 6 times, because they kept changing their mind about things. I've done one this morning, but also told them that's it, they can find someone else, effective immediately 😠 Hoping for some peace and quiet today, maybe I'll even turn my phone off :rolleyes: Got a pocket of Charlie goodness! :) Enjoy your Sunday Guardians :thumbsup:

Good for you. Your work is wasted on people who don't know their own jobs.

You know, speaking of the possible chase-ways from the church kitchen, we have some blueprints somewhere. In cardboard tubes, probably somewhere in the office. Doug will know.

It's All Saints/Souls? Sunday, so there will be candles. I'm bringing my own tealights in silver-plate holders that I got for Dad after one of his candles went a bit wild.

I brought up my 12-cup Hamilton Beach Java Spa, since the Keurig won't be available at church. I might have to run it again, in the interest of Science. Either it's garbage, or it was designed to flow through a metal mesh basket and the paper filter is too slow.

Actually, a smart guy like me might eventually think of bringing a thermos to church every Sunday. Coffee is expensive enough without being packed in techno-thimbles.

Twenty seven degrees out there! A ways to go to get up to a fifty two high.

Enjoy your day Jack.
It's a wonder those people have an organization left to run, with minds like that!

Bob, your checkerboard lambsfoot on the rocks is neat! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
(I think that's my first oxymoron for November. 🤓)

My Lambsfoot of the Week is LamBarJack, my rosewood HHB. It's shown here with a pair of new boots I bought at least 5 years ago. (I bought some new boots again this week; I should take some knife photos while the boots are still reasonably presentable.)

Thanks Gary.

Such a classic lamb. 😍
 
Completely forgot about Daylight Savings Time. I could have slept an extra hour. I like to get my chores and exercising done first thing before my inherent procrastination kicks in. I congratulated myself on my efficiency this morning. Then I looked at my watch and concluded the time on my ipad was wrong. I finally saw a post mentioning turning clocks back and discovered my logic was flawed and I could be an idiot. I am going to bed an hour earlier tonight which might be later…I give up.

Anyhow here’s my smiling skull face lambsfoot. Happy Sunday.

No need for you to be putting up with that kind of crap.

I had a boss who was a nice guy and good boss and very knowledgeable. For whatever reason he wasn't satisfied with the design I was working on and kept having me revise it. By the sixth revision he had it almost back to where I started with design number one :rolleyes:
I made the sixth revision and took it to the Division of Design and Construction who handled the bid process to get the pre-bid meeting scheduled.
Sometime later, Dennis stopped by and inquired as to how the revision was going.
I told him it was over at Design and Construction and the pre-bid meeting was on such and such a date.

"What?", he says, "I thought you were going to send it around for comments again before taking it over there!"

"I know you thought that, but I never agreed to it."

He went away.

There are reasons I never climbed high in the organization 😛
