Hi NIRDIs!
Jimmianne, at least your snow is pretty. I am glad you don’t get much snow. Look out though the NIRDIs might just invade your lovely home and peaceful country living. Will Puff be mad? Good idea to pick up your supplies and beautiful ring before the storm moves in. They are not altering my bands, but are checking them and refinishing them. I guess I am in line because right now they are scheduled for shipping on the 27th. I am wearing my Tiffany band so I am not suffering much but will have to wear the same band for a few weeks. They are sending me a check for $100 for dinner on them. Marty said to save it and send it back the next time I buy something from them. I will probably buy from them again. Enjoy staying in safe from the storm and watching movies with a glass of wine. Sounds fun and cozy. Isn’t it silly they name snow storms now?
Missy, the forecast for your area does sound bleak but hopefully the power stays on and the coastal flooding is minimal. Won’t Kristie be surprised when we all show up at her door? The stock market did better today. I guess I should get my rings back by next weekend. I did wear another RHR ring today. I dug out my blue sapphire. My ering is happy because it doesn’t have another diamond to compete with all the time. Cool picture and video. I can see NYC across the bay. Thanks! Are you guys holing up at home or the beach for the storm?
My day started off with some idiot almost sideswiping my car. I was waiting to turn on the main road by our house and some guy came flying around the corner, went in to my lane and missed by car by a few inches. Luckily since I was turning right I was already far over to the right. He then oversteered and almost went in the ditch. I wonder if he was coming home from an all night bender. Wow I’ll be watching for that car from now on.
Work was busy. I met a friend for lunch then picked up some cupcakes from a new cupcake store down town. They were okay but not the best cupcakes I’ve ever had. I took orders from my employees and my boss’s employees so ended up getting about a dozen cupcakes.
The upcoming snow storm caused a bunch of last minute changes for us at work so I stayed about 30 minutes late. We have a lot of changes to finish in the morning.
Marty might apply for another job. The scary part is we may have to move. It says location “preferably Atlanta”. I was checking they have 6% state taxes plus if we moved there we’d lose my income. No way would a new position compensate for my income plus having to pay state taxes. The job description sounds like it was written for Marty but who knows that might be wishful thinking. His boss in the UK called him to tell him that job had been posted but that was all he said. He would be a manager over the US division of employees for the job Marty currently has now. He wanted out of management when he took his current job so I don’t know if he wants to go back in to management. Ideally if he wants the job and he gets it he can just work in Atlanta one week a month. Most of the guys with his same job work in Atlanta; only he and another guy work from home. When Marty was looking for this job I wouldn’t move because of my parents but now there isn’t a reason to stay here. However I wouldn’t be excited to move. We’ve only been in our house 3 years so that might not be very profitable to sell now. Time will tell. Atlanta has 2 Shane Companies - I could scoop up new sapphires on a whim. Ooh dream job - QA incoming sapphires. Thanks for listening to my babbling about that.
Poor Marty got up at 3:30 today so he was shot today. He had the oil changed in his pickup. That reminds me we paid for all maintenance on his new truck for 5 years or 7 years or something silly like that. I wonder if he is getting run down because he isn’t eating much right now and works out about 90 minutes a day 5 days a week.
Have a great evening and stay home from the storm if the snow is heading your way.
