How are my blogbuds today? We are in day 4 or 5 of rainy, gloomy days, so haven't gotten out to the GW or TS this weekend. Took the w/e to just chill and read and relax. Great days for a little nap here and there.
Well, as I knew was coming, our salaries at work were cut, and pretty substantially. I will have to be very careful what I buy and not give in to the "I wants" -- stick more to the "I needs" -- altho, I hope to take off Friday with my GF and drive up to Judy's shop in Hereford, PA (Cinnamon Sticks) -- just take a day to see the rural side of our area. When I'm sure I have the day off, I will let Judy know I'm coming and will for sure take the camera! Can't let this all get me down -- it is what it is and everyone is experiencing the money woes. Nurses being cut and laid off all over the place here in Philly, so I'm grateful I still have a job and my bennies.
This will be a shortie since I have to get to work, but just wanted to check in and say hello. Hope to have some new pics tomorrow, if I have time to stop at GW on my way to work. I did so much work in here the last few months that I don't have anything really new to show!!
Have a good Monday! Baldy Boy very happy with his buzz cut and getting into trouble! Climbing all over everything now that he feels free of all that hair!
Oh I would LOVE to go to the Cinamon Sticks...go a treat yourself to one last spending spree Before you tighen your budget belt! Beth
ReplyDeleteHi Terry! I'm enjoying the cooler temps so the cloudy/rainy days don't bother me a bit. Tis true the money woes, we are self employed and are really feeling the pinch to say the least....not being able to spend money is NO FUN AT ALL boohoo! I sure hope things improve for EVERYONE real SOON! Janet

Terry,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your salary being cut. As a former nutse, I never thought I would see the day when nurses were being laid off. Have fun at the Cinnamon Stick ~ Judy seems like such a nice person. Can't wait to see pics.

Hi Terry...I'm new to your blog and loved your slide show of your apartment. Very cozy and inviting! I love your cat! We have a 20 lb. Maine coon male that is tri-colored and is such a big baby! Don't know how he ever got that way...ha ha!
ReplyDeleteWe live in western PA and the economy has not changed too much. We are in a small rural town so maybe that makes a difference. Hope things will be alright for you. :)
Hi Terry,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the pay cut. I keep hoping that things will turn around soon. Maybe you can treat yourself to one little thing at Cinnamon Stick, but I know you will have fun no matter what when you go to visit.
hugs, Cindy
Hi Terry,
ReplyDeleteWhen nurses get laid off and salaries cut, you know things are bad. I hope it turns around soon. In the meantime, enjoy a trip to the Cinnamon Stick!! hugs, Linda
