This and That and maybe a Bit of TMI

THIS- So Here it is the first week in December and Lil' Miss Christmas here hasn't got much done at all in the decorating department inside the house...and only half the things done outside the house. 

The Inside decor Christmas Bins are brought up from the basement- but still awaiting being displayed so far. Outside the swags are made and in the windows but the trio of Tomato cage trees are still awaiting the greenery and lights to be added. Also- our neighbor, Beau, generously gave us a large round of wood from HELENE's Chaos because I said I wanted a natural side table for my Adirondack chair on my front porch. I got it rolled about 12 feet away from the woodpile- and was exhausted. So... me being the eternal optimist, Decided to go get my car that has a big wide hatchback so I could just back up, toss the thing in the back and drive it over to the front porch and place it. 

Ummmm hmmmmmm...yeah. So I drove the car over and backed up to it- and when I tried to "toss it in" I realized it weighed more than I do...prob twice as much as me at this point. So....Im going to have to wait on that project til a couple of my boys (adults all) can give me a helping hand. Meanwhile, I hope to get the rest of the inside decor and the tree up this weekend while my daughter and myself are there alone. 


THAT- I think Christmas is going to suck this year- but there is always NEXT year to look forward to, Right?


A BIT OF TMI- 

Bathroom Etiquette!!! If that topic icks you out-move on- that being said; there is nothing graphic in what I'm about to write. Up to you.

So something that really annoys me is at work there are seven stalls in the ladies restroom. Large handicapped ones on each end and five regular sized ones between them. Now I can usually head by there after the morning rush, and I always choose the center one because I like my personal space- so to speak- and that leaves allllllll the others in case anyone comes in- and they inevitably DO that very thing. 

And for the love of all that is stupid and annoying- no matter which one I'm in- that someone chooses to "go" into the one directly beside ME!!!

If I go in and someone is in one of the stalls- I would NEVER choose the stall directly beside them unless it was the only one free and there was no time to spare.

I just don't understand peoples brain processes sometimes. Or maybe their lack of brain processes..... I don't think I'm being bitchy wanting to not be up on someone else (or them being up on me)when personal business is being conducted.... 

And another thing- for God's sake why are women constantly having a phone conversation while in the stall doing their business?  Surely it's not always something of great importance that cant wait!!!!!! 

I cant tell you the number of times I've gotten calls from my boss (or from anyone to be honest)like that and declined to answer the call.  Then I pull up my pants and wash my hands and THEN call him(or whoever) back after I step outside the restroom. 

SMDH....

and that's all for today, y'all.....  Rant Over. :)

Guys don't violate that bathroom personal space, and I'm definitely with you about not talking while handling my personal business. Sh!++!ng in peace is one of my non-negotiables.
