The Pleasures of Life Thread

A bunch of southern boys who have been separated by life but pick back up over heavy drinking even in sad times.

Looking back/ahead at things since July and realizing from the start of July until Labour Day weekend I'm only having 5 full days work weeks at most 3 of the 10 weeks in this span, and that's just as of now, at least 1 of those 3 could be changed, and another of those 3 weeks happens to be the week before vacation time.

If things work out, there won't even be consecutive weeks of 5 day work weeks all summer.

Now if only that could be the case year round...

We lost our 13 year old lab Otis yesterday. A lot of tears and sorrow, but I awakened this morning with a sense of comfort. Our wonderful pets provide so many blessed memories, a true pleasure of life. Those memories fill our trophy case, which aren't to make us sad, but make us grateful of what we've experienced.

Almost time to go on my end of summer vacation.

Helps that right now is a long weekend here so it's a nice relaxing weekend to plan out what I'm gonna be doing on vacation and then going into the week only having it be a 4 day work week.

I think I now know what its like to discover fire, or plutonium. Wendy's Ghost Pepper Chicken Sandwich. I suspect I will put another 20 pounds on the next couple months. But it will be so worth it.

This year I'm changing things up and making it an earlier vacation. It's nice having an "end of summer" vacation, but at the same time it sucks because you're looking forward to it all summer to the point where by time it's over summer is also done.

This year it's an end of July/beginning of August one so that it's right in the middle. By time it's over there's still most of August left over to enjoy.
