    Oh geez, so we had Day 1 of lucidness yesterday. No Day 2 today. Billy was right about the odds. I guess he’s not so dumb as I look.

     

    Susan being an early bird again. I too was awake at 3:00 a.m. And more lucid than Cathy, but that’s in my contract. Hullo KFG and your odd hours as well. Geez. Morning lightenup probably still sleeping at this hour. I’ll be curled up under the blankets by the time you arrive, or in mere moments, whichever comes first. Tired tired tired. Still looking for MOM! Come in Mom! And bless the rest of our Cathy family. :-)

    I agree with Susan. If her desk is so bad that she can’t deal with it and she goes home, then she should be fired.Good morning, early birds Susan and JanuAaronry! I’m glad both of you have warm toasty homes again.Hello to GsMom (hopefully today), Billy, gmforde, rgcviper, KFG and all the other Cathy nuts rolling around here today!

    Maybe Cathy got to claim some accumulated time off. She’s dancing on the edge of being fired or quitting. I’m dancing on the edge of having an eyeroll! lol

    Not necessarily. Remember this gem?(Cathy gestures at an obviously sick female co-worker) Cathy: Barb—came back from vacation with the flu. Worked all day anyway.(Cathy gestures at an obviously sick male co-worker) Cathy: Dave—came back from vacation with bronchitis. Worked all day anyway(Cathy gestures at a freaking out female co-worker) Cathy: Joan—came back from vacation with perspective. Joan: This is all drivel! Meaningless drivel! ICKY, MEANINGLESS DRIVEL!!!!! Cathy’s boss (to Joan): Go home! You’re going to infect everyone!

    When I worked, my desk was always clean . . . but now that I don’t work outside my home anymore, my home office desk is an absolute disaster area! So where am I supposed to go due to my “desk congestion”?!?!?!

     

    ;-)

     

    Good afternoon, Aaron, Billy, LMB, lightenup, K.F.G., Susan, rgcviper, lindz.coop, puppybreath, RinaFarina, and all the rest of the Cathy fanatics joining us here today. Life has been extremely busy around my house since I was last here on Saturday but not so busy that I still didn’t miss you all and wish I could have had the time to log on and say hi! As always, it’s nice to be back. Hope everyone is keeping warm and having a nice day!

     

    :-)

    The good news is Fred will get better in a day or two. The bad news is Cathy won’t get better for a lifetime or two.

     

    What’s the old expression? A clean desk is the sign of a sick mind or something like that. My desk at work is clean and 90% of what I do is on my iPad, backed up on the server. The other 10% is catalogued and cross-referenced on the server. Aaron’s desk and my desk here at home have basic ever evolving items. We once took pictures of our desks each week for two months to see how it evolves. The pics are now framed as art in our den. Talk about morphing.

     

    Hello lightenup quieter today than usual. Hi GsMom! glad to see you back among your second (or third) family. KFG I’ll catch up to in a bit. NICE to see gmforde here too, and Aaron is right on about the eyroll.

    Well, Aaron, you called the eye-roll when you commented on “B.C.” yesterday. Loved that comment, by the way..In theory, Cathy, that idea could be a winner. In real life? Not so much..Greetings, fellow “Cathy” nuts.

    I confess, I have a messy desk too, but usually I can find things. Like you lightenup, I need the visual and I’m also “out of sight, out of mind.”

    Dunno about the desk, but Cathy could get rid of some of the office congestion by getting Fred out of there with his sniffling.

    Hi to all other Cathy nuts who roll thru!!

    Well now I must say that according to Billy I have a ‘sick mind’ because my desk at work is immaculate…..it has to be! How else can I keep track of patients’ charts, messages, and other things?!!?!?……..I’m really adamant about neatness at work, not SO much at home……..sure I can sleep soundly if the stapler is facing North instead of South (how it usually is)……..I’m not that bad….really…..am I ?? Oh lordy! LOL….I don’t care…..Evening Billy, Aaron, Gretch’s ma, Lightenup (cheer up chickie), Susan, Viper dude, gm forde (nice to see you) lindzcoop, JimmyNYC, and all ye other wonderful Cathy nuts :)……did I forget anyone, Billy???? :P hee hee
