Last Few Days

Posted on Friday February 24th, 2006 by | Comments Off on Last Few Days

I orginally started this yesterday, but lost it. Hopefully I’ll be able to remember some of what I was going to say.

This week didn’t start out that good. The engine light came on in our truck. So Monday we had to take it in. We have a ton a work that needs to get done and got about half of it done. With my work schedule we hope to get the rest of it done within the next 2 weeks. The only good thing is that we won’t have to worry about it for awhile once it is all done.

I had Wed. & Thurs. off. We did some errands and then spent the majority of the time working on projects.

Harold is working on some long & tedious projects. I don’t know how he is doing it, he showed me what he was doing and I barely did 64th of what he is doing it and it was mind numbing and gave me a headache. But then lately, sitting at the pc (especially when my posture is off) has been giving me a nauase feeling. So that didn’t help.

We did take some time outs and laid out in the sun. It had gotten to about 82F those 2 days. Thursday we got so hot that Harold jumped into the pool, it was a chilly 74F. He talked me into coming in. Took me a bit before it started to feel good.

I’m going to have to finish this another time. My head feels horrible. =(

    Last Few Days

    Posted on Saturday February 18th, 2006 by | Comments Off on Last Few Days

    I hope everyone had a good Valentines day. I had to work early that day. Harold had roses, adobable teddy bears and a card waiting for me. The roses were a beautiful rainbow color assortment, with yellows, pinks, reds, and purples.

    He had a great dinner ready for me when I got home and then we spent some quality time together.

    Wednesday was an extremely long day. I had some huge projects to get done this week at work. So I went in early that day and ended up working a 12hr day. Since I had Thrusday off, I had really wanted to get as much done as possible. We got much more done then I thought we would. In fact we finished it up today. =) Considering how short handed we have been, I’m pretty damn proud of us.

    Harold had picked up Aurora’s ashes. He had them on my desk waiting for me when I got home late Wednesday night. I lost it when I opened the card with her name on it. But I finally have a sense of closure with having her home. I have been cuddling with Aurora’s old towel, but since I have her ashes I’m not squeezing on to it as hard as I use to.

    I have her tin of ashes on my desk, with her clay paw print and her collar in it. And I found that our new printer does very well with pictures, cuz I have her picture about my desk and I can look at it without crying.

    I got my nails done Thursday and piddled around the house for my day off. I think after all the stress of trying to get things done at work, I just wanted to vegated. I’m looking forward to my next 2 days off…….Wednesday & Thursday. I really need to start in on the taxes, but I really don’t feel like doing them.

    I have to get ready for bed, I have to be @ work by 6am for the next 2 days.

    Good News!!! maybe….

    Also some good news on the Boilermaker’s home front, Jim Cheney the offensive coordinator for the past 9 years has left Purdue and joined the St Louis Rams as Off Line Coach. He has been the top of my shit list since he came to Purdue. So many times we have a so called “high power offense” and he calls weak conservative plays over and over. Short pass right, short pass right, run up the middle, punt, and repeat at the next set of downs, reminds me of the dark days of Jim Colleto’s 6 years where we played to tie, since going for a win is too costly and you may lose.

    I can not begin to express the outrage of going to a game and watching the fastest WR in the Big Ten run 5 yards and stop over and over when he can out run the DB’s for the end zone if just once they had thrown it long. I know they can’t do this every play, but at least once a game would be nice and I’m not saying he is the only reason our team has sucked for the last 3 years, but he’s high on the list.

    The new Offensive Coordinator at St Louis is Greg Olson, he was with Purdue for 5 years I think and left for the 49ers, but he was married to the Purdue’s woman’s track coach and she stayed at Purdue and after a year he asked Tiller to come back to Purdue and Tiller agreed, then after the next season he left Purdue unexpectedly for the Chicago Bears after telling Tiller he was at Purdue for the long haul, Tiller the calm cool guy he is, banned Olson from the entire Purdue campus and refuses to deal with him again.

    When they announced Cheney was leaving, Tiller was in Ft Myers FL playing golf and the Defensive Coordinator Brock Spack said he had not yet spoken to Tiller so he has no idea who will replace Cheney, so it sounded like to me that this was totally unexpected, but I think it’s a great move, until they promoted Legg who was a offensive Coordinator at West Virginia for 2 years and VT for a year, so I am wondering how good he could be if he last only one year at VT and took a job as Off Line coach at Purdue?

    Ok, everyone filled in on Purdue football now?
