Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

That was a beautiful shot, BigAl. Thanks.

Pauly, I'm glad you broke free of that mess. You've tolerated it way longer than I ever could. Good on you! Your next gig will be much better.

Waves to all of my Cafe buddies! I'll happily take 24 more. 😎

Pauly, I'm glad you broke free. I bet you will find something much better. Change isn't easy, but sometimes it is necessary!

Thanks for yesterday's breakfast Cowboy. It was great!

Unseasonably warm here, too and I too will be outside later today to enjoy it. I find these days to be best enjoyed sober! 24 more for all of us please and thank you.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good afternoon Cafe friends and lovers. Good for you, Pauly. May many blessings and good wishes come your way. We are over on the peninsula, helping daughter with new baby. So, with a late start but lots of gratitude I accept another twenty four. I wish you all the best day possible. Blessings x

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

So glad that you are out of that hell hole Pauly! I've worked in many a toxic environment, and after leaving, it was such a huge relief to not have to deal with the BS anymore. I'm sure that eventually you will find a job that makes you happy.

Looking forward to another 24 hours!

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe. Pauly, happy for you to make that move and get out. QW sound like a very very cold day for you yesterday. Hope its a bit warmer today. Wishing everyone a good and sober day. Another 24 for me please and thank you.

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

Good job on leaving that place [MENTION=17650]paulywogg[/MENTION]! I think I've only been with 2 employers that I ended up not being happy with. It made me wonder if I'd made the right career choices. I love what I do for the most part, but toxic workplaces can make you second guess why you do what you do. I'm sure you'll keep busy with other things until a new salon comes along!

We're under an extreme cold warning for the next couple of days as well [MENTION=22409]Quit wining[/MENTION]. It's -30C (-22F) here this morning! Sure glad I don't have any outside work to do lol.

[BigAl]

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe Friends. Wow [MENTION=22409]Quit wining[/MENTION] and [MENTION=21602]abcowboy[/MENTION], that's cold. We have touched temps like that here every once in a great while, but we are not set up for anything as sustained as you guys get.

Yesterday was a tough day. My friend who just underwent surgery to remove his brain tumor told me that he will start chemo this week. He said his doc was not very optimistic given the type of cancer and thought that he maybe had a year or so left. Its heartbreaking. I wish there was more I could do.

So, with thoughts of the fragility of our moral flame, I humbly ask for 24 more, and will try to live the next 24 hours as the best human being I possibly.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

BA, I am so sorry to hear such sad news for you and your friend and his family. Heart-breaking. It's one of the hardest things accept when there is simply nothing we can do to change what is. But you at least have the power to offer comfort and to be there for him. Prayers and thoughts your way.

We are in for a stretch of cold temps here, but nothing like what you are facing, Cowboy and QW! Stay safe and keep warm.

Another 24 please and thank you.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Another 24 hours pleae & thank you.

I actually don’t mind the cold weather that much. Yeah, it means not walking outdoors but our building has about 200 condos on 4 floors and I can walk the entire building in under 15 minutes, including 8 flights of stairs. I’m fortunate not to have a commute to work as being on the roads can be a challenge but we carry an emergency kit in the Jeep in case of breakdown.

Sorry to learn about your friends prognosis Big Al. I’m sure your buddy knows you’ll do everything you can to be there for him while he undergoes treatment. And, you’ll be able to help him by being af.

I will venture out shortly to drive my son to work. One of the benefits of being close to our Calgary family is that I can do things like this so that he doesn’t have to face the nasty cold conditions. After that, it’s bread making time - Bisquick is threatening to overflow the jar again.

Have a great af Tuesday everyone.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Thats sad Big Al hoping it ends up ok,waves ro rhea gang and wishes for a decent AF day for us all

[Ginger999]

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

BigAl, so sorry about your friend.

Dang you northerners sure do have cold weather! We have a cold snap coming too but our lows will be in the 60s.

Looking forward to an easy AF day. May we all have one! 24 more....

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Sorry to hear about your friend BigAl...cancer sucks, especially in one so young.

Yesterday's temps were in the upper 50's and it's still pretty mild now, but that won't last long as it's supposed to drop into the 20's by the end of the day. It also looks like another snow storm will arrive here Thursday night into Friday. Typical rollercoaster weather for this time of year.

Looking forward to another 24 hours!

[BigAl]

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe Friends. Frigid cold here for me (rather balmy for QW and Cowboy), with a strong north wind. I took my truck into the Chevy dealership for a 30,000 mile service. Paid them too much money, and left with my alignment screwed up and none of my tire pressure sensors working. It's just hard to find good service these days.

But, I am sober. In the past that would have been but one verse in a long litany of reasons to drink. With that, I will humbly ask for another 24 hours please and thanks.

[Rava]

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Morning Cafe. Big Al, I’m so sorry to hear about your friend. That’s never easy. Glad you are forging thru and remaining sober thru this. Today I signed up for a free 3 day gym membership trial. I have to do this within the next week. I feel that I have become a slug and need a change. The gym is 2 miles from my condo and easy to drive to. So we shall see. Today is supposed to be in the upper 80’s. Hope everyone has a great day. Another 24 for me please and thank you.
