Why does the nice guy always finish last?

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

I recently started a part time job at a retail store as a cashier.  One of the managers there is a very nice young man.  He reminds me a lot of my own sons.  I like to laugh and joke with him, and he certainly seems to enjoy hanging around me.  This guy would make a really great husband for some lucky young woman, and he says he is looking for a girl to settle down with and have children.  The issue is that he is having trouble meeting any women who share his same high moral values.  I have to agree that there are very few places young adults can go that is not a pub.  I wish there was something I could do to help them out!  I’ll have to think on that.

New Year’s Resolutions

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

Have you made any New Year’s Resolutions this year? One of mine is to waste less food. I am apalled every week when I get ready to go to the grocery store and I rummage around the refrigerator to see what needs to be thrown out and find so much food that has been there too long to eat!

Part of the problem is that often times when I cook supper the rest of the family decides at the last minute that they aren’t going to eat dinner. Now I know I’m a good cook, but the only time I can count on everyone coming to the table is if it is take-out Chinese Food or take-out Pizza. And I am NOT ordering take-out food every time we need to eat supper! So I think that I will put the rest of the family in charge of the meal planning, the shopping, and the cooking. I’m tired of wasting time, energy, and money on trying to feed this family. As for me, well I can just fix myself a PB&J sandwich or a bowl of soup if no one cooks!
