  • I'm about to leave and drive in. Stupid to open today if you ask me (who buys wood floors on Christmas Eve?!?) I DO have some work to do, but have a feeling we'll close really early today.
  • I miss both of you. Kristen, I'm surprised you guys are open too....who buys fence on Christmas eve? Your cakes are gorgeous btw.

     R- How are you feeling these days? Any names picked out? I'm partial to derek and nick myself. :P

  • ::raises hand::

    I'm bored already

  • Yeah no kidding...NO ONE buys a fence on Christmas eve, that's who. <sigh> I think the phone has run 3 times since 7:30 and one of those times it was DH. I mean, DH and my dad are out on a job right now and so are some of the crews and I have some paperwork that I'm refusing to do but it's so stupid to be here. GRRR.Can you tell I'm a little bitter!? lol!

     And I miss you too! It actually HAS been busy around here so I've been on less. So what's new with you? 

    ETA - oh and thanks about the cakes! :)

  • Ugh, I'll be so happy when this year's over! Moved BACK to liverpool. (PLEASE shoot me if I move at all next year, it's beginning to be a pattern). Got a promotion at work. I've stopped riding in favor of working with emma and doing WORK, I can't take the thursdays off to ride like i used to. and I've been sewing like a madwoman! I'll be happy when the holidays are over...

    Hey Jaimie. I'm surprised to see you at work too, I thought they were opretty good about giving you holidays off. That sucks.

  • I am, but only for a half day.  I can't concentrate at all though.  The barn that I ride at burned down last night, so all I can think about is getting back over there to help with clean up and setting up temporary stalls for the horses.

    Congrats on the promotion! That's too bad your not riding anymore.

    Yeah, they have been in the past, but not with Christmas Eve.  I don't understand why we need to be here (4 of us), but at least I'm getting paid and plus T is working too, so I might as well be too.

  • N- that's insane! Any idea what caused it? 

    Are you going to get to see DH for xmas? how did the christmas tree set up go?

    Oh my!  Is everyone and the horses ok?

  • I'm here for a full day.  I have some work to do, and I just got an office (yay!) so I have to finish moving my stuff.  All the same, I'd rather be home cleaning or watching Christmas movies!

  • Yay on getting an office! Congrats!

    Congrats on the office!!!   When did that happen?

  • Thankfully everyone (people AND horses) are fine.  The fire started just before 5.  I had a 6 pm lesson so I was just getting to the barn when the fire trucks were.  A 12 year old girl got all the horses out of the barn...

    They think the fire started because of the extra heaters that were in the barn to make sure the pipes didn't freeze, but they arent entirely sure.

    I have a little blurb in my blog with a picture, but if you google "colonie barn fire" you'll be able to get more info on it.

  • Amazing that a 12 yo got all the horses out. I'm glad everyone, people and animals, are safe!

  • Just this week!  It's a mixed blessing - A bunch of people have been let go, and they needed someone who could answer the door, so I got the office right next to it.  At least they didn't shove me to the reception desk!

  • Yay congrats on the promotion! That's awesome! Oh I can imagine you're tired of moving...it's never fun at all. Sorry you're not riding as much! Maybe you'll pick it up again over the summer? Riding in the winter isn't that much fun anyways! lol!

    Ditto this!  lol.  It's an exercise in how to look busy without actually doing anything, because our GM is actually in the office today.  Thank God for Alt-Tab!
