Sometimes you just have to take matters in your own hand...and you did. Hopefully the job will get finished now. God bless you for your patience this long. No comment on the common sense issues...I think that has already been answered by others. lol Blessings and hugs, Helen Report Inappropriate Comment

HEY CHAR, I THINK ALL BOSSES WERE POURED OUT OF THE SANE CAN. TALK ABOUT DUMB, I HAD A OFFICE THAT OVERLOOKED THE SHOP. MY BOSSES OFFICE WAS DOWN THE HALL. WE HAD COFFEE BREAK FROM 9:00 TO 9:15 EVERY MORNING. THE BOSS WOULD COME DOWN TO MY OFFICE USUALLY BETWEEN 9:00 & 9:15 STAND THERE AND LOOK OUT THE WINDOW INTO THE SHOP AND SAY WHY AREN'T THOSE GUYS WORKING? I'D HAVE TO TELL HIM IT'S COFFEE BREAK TOM. OH, HE SAYS. OH WELL, JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW YOU WEREN'T ALONE. IT WILL BE OK, JUST HANG IN THERE KIDO. IT'S A REAL SHAME PEOPLE CAN'T OR WON'T FOLLOW THROUGH ON THERE WORD TO DO A JOB. THAT REALLY BURNS MY BUTT. YA KNOW WHAT ELSE DOES? A FLAME ABOUT 3FT HIGH. STAY ON EM KID. JERRY Report Inappropriate Comment

I will never understand how others think! When you ask about common sense you know alot of people just plain don't have any of that stuff. You can't buy it off the shelf either! Those dudes should be ashamed of themselves for leaving you out to dry like that are you paying them or is Roy doing a trade like with Mike? Hang in there this too shall pass!!

Well Char tomorrow you are back to work, just not enough vacation days huh? I still miss getting up daily and going to work and if it hadn't been for Dragon Lady I would still be doing just that. How sad. Oh well I have used my summer to get some things done around the house and it makes me so happy that I have them done so guess it's not all bad. Sure hope Mike gets the feeling he needs to finish your molding for you, I don't understand people hanging people out to dry like that but they do it all the time. You had one busy productive day today so going back to work will more then likely feel pretty darn good. Have a great first day back dear friend. Love Cheryl Report Inappropriate Comment

Char I am so anxious to see your finished product girl. Rich and a friend and I took a few minutes today to sit out under the new arbor and just admire the hard work it's so cool when you've worked so hard and can see it all done and beautiful. I managed to get the landing retiled today will just need to put the grout in tomorrow after the carpetman lays new carpet on the stairs YIPPIE, am so excited to have so many hard projects DONE and I know you are going to feel the same way when your's is done. Rich came in after I cleaned the tile tonight and said ok what's next? Of course we both had a good laugh knowing yes I already have another project in my head hehehehe are we wonderful women?
