Sorry for the rant folks. Much more relaxed now.:D

Kitchen table. Laptop. Beer. Looking forward to the homemade burgers with mash, peas and pepper sauce later.:D

Cheers Pretzill. I'm of the "older" generation, late feckin 40s and no big deal. The marketing people are 10 years younger. It was disrespectful to me and the younger people who display great talent in our field, but sadly they tolerate this bullying BS.

I hope Mr P's illness is a coping one for you at the least. Mrs G had an acute stroke two years ago and still isn't the woman I knew. But she's still with me and that's all that counts.

I have beer on a Wednesday. Have the wine.

IamMetaldave · 09-10-2019 8:41pm

@Mam, thanks. I am out and free! Thankfully

Couchside watching Chicago Fire.. started watching the other day, not a bad show.

That’s some fancy spending you’re doing Leg!

Poochie05 · 09-10-2019 8:43pm

Feeling good after a 2 hour progress meeting with my boss's boss. I was on fire, fluent, gave a great presentation with no slides, painted a picture of what we were doing and where it all fit in. Boss was delighted as it made her look good. It’s been hard, she’s pushed and pushed but I think we're beginning to find our groove at last. Having a celebratory early night!

Someone I loved had a stroke and changed in many ways, mostly mentally and emotionally though... but I know what you meant about not being the person they were before

my heart goes out to you and Mrs G.

Skybirdjb · 09-10-2019 8:57pm

Dealing with the initial physical problems was one thing that was easiest after a spell in the NRH. Did wonders for her. These days we are left with the mental and emotional side of things and the fatigue. Good days, bad days and nowhere days. But it's different. Not long after her stroke, Mrs G. talked about the new "reality" we face. It is a new reality.

Deskside with a cupan tae and yellow snack.

Is it just me or are the yellow snacks tasting totally different these days ?

09-10-2019 9:23pm

On the couch..cases packed for long weekend away,enough clothes for a month,I am the world's worse packer, its absolutely ridiculous. Anyway trying to get some sleep before driving to the airport, trying not to worry about the flight, feeling guilty that I should be upbeat about going away but totally apathetic, if it was cancelled right now I wouldn't care tbh,I'm actually a homebird and prefer holidaying in Ireland for 2 nights and then I've enough of it...I know I'm a right moany cow atm lol..on a better note there seems to be lots of shooting stars tonight, I've made 2 wishes so far.

Edit..just read Grandeeods post and I don't mean to sound so flippant about stuff..my moans are beyond trivial in comparison.

Not just you Skybird. I've often commented on them here. A nasty sugary/sweetened taste. Not so choco/biscuit anymore.

Its all okay these days DD. We get on with it and everyone else is very entitled to moan and be as trivial as they want. I had a work related rant earlier that Mrs G. doesn't even know about. Get on that aircraft and enjoy yourself!:D

On the couch flicking around the music channels. I’m sure there’s something more productive I should be doing though :pac:

Autosport · 09-10-2019 10:10pm

Couchside myself and I feel I haven’t spoken to you guys in ages so how is everyone

honeybear · 09-10-2019 10:13pm

All good here Auto. I’m on weekend countdown.
