Good morning Rick.....and NOW Cath, and too All deeming fit to drag their butts to the Training Table this morning......HAPPY TUESDAY!
Yeah, me guilty as charged as we'll......slept in till 7:30a Love this vacation!

Coffee is HOT, and thanks to Cath, I'm thinking I got to go find some EVERYTHING bagels for myself round here.
I've tried a couple/few times to write out 'S.O.P'......tedious....oh my goodness! At face value you can see where they may have merit for the new comer.....but you extrapolate THAT out to someone who truly hasn't a clue, and you wind up not accounting for THAT......there's danger ahead. 'Somethings' we assume, take for granted, 'goes without say', and BINGO! I have seen people do just that.....,read a card verbatim, and I'd have to stop them as they skipped past the obvious step and get dangerous. 😱 'FOOL PROOF' isn't possible!

Be safe, be cool, and be healthy Cath......good examples are always in fashion!

Got another dr's appointment today, this one's for Jen again, and I have one tomorrow.....hit the 'important' ones during the year, and save the 'oh come on folks' ones for this time of the year.

Last one in grab the towels,
Hack

NEWS FLASH.......

Hack's off to his first gig! 😱

The only thing news worthy of this conversation is the speed of it happening.
The Sams are having their new home build, and evidently the contractor must have been talking to them this morning, and asked if Nate was available**.......a/ they must have heard of this last night or b/ got a call stupid early being asked.....since this all transpired before 8 this morning. Of course Hack jumped at the opportunity, and just got picked up by Mr. Sam.

In retrospect come to think of it, THAT was my first 'job' as well......I started working with a neighborhood contractor.

Good morning Guys!
'Bring gloves' was all he was told......There's a huge chunk of the world that lives in THAT camp. I do not. I think Nate leans towards taking after his Mom in that aspect......Not always, but I do see him going for the gloves when manualocity rules the day. ("Yeah, I think I just invented that word.")
My hands would have never been in the running for the 'Palmolive dish soap ads'....folks standing around showing off their blisters, and I'd glance at my hands and see 3-rows of calluses running down my fingers onto my palms. Gloves do a good job keeping your hands warm though....UNLESS you work on the creek.

HEY Doug! Yeah, them bagels did hit the spot.

Honestly Rick, especially during the winter months, my hands ain't what they use to be.....and Jen probably says 'Thank God!'. Must have felt like being caressed by Wally Gator. 😁

Someone came home from their 1st day in the trenches with their 1st blisters on their feet......ankles.
So a quick trip to the drug store for bandages just the right size, and he'll more than likely live.

Left over 'left overs' for dinner...Ham Croquettes, and if there's any left, the dogs will love us forever.

Got MY dr's visit tomorrow morning..,,,and Jen has another one in the afternoon....MAN there's gonna be a lot of dr's out there with new clubs on the course.

Peace and really cool thoughts,
Hack

Hack'zilla alternates between flip flops and combat boots. He's use to wearing his size 14W high top zipped side boots, and wears em everywhere.......BUT, not bending down, climbing ladders, and WALKING extended periods in them. NOW the boots are broken in properly. 😁 Poor little fella's in bed already.

I do not wish to push Nate down a life long path of 'construction work', but if it be so, then may God bless him.....but this is a great opportunity as you said to get a background in a variety of skill sets.....including owning your own home one day and EVERYTHING THAT MAY ARISE with that.

He'll be at the Sams' new build this week, and the contractor asked him to come along next week on another build as well. GO GET EM BOY!
