I appear to have taken on the mantle of manager this week while my boss is away. That was a little unexpected!

We've been dodging significant snow accumulations this year here in New Jersey. Hope it stays that way this winter!!

Hello to all

Have a great week!

A day late again this week.

I seem to be always just a bit late. Too much wine - or not enough.

Enjoy your day.

Haven't been active at all for the past month as I'm wintering in Fort Myers Florida and have been thinking of absolutely nothing. Please forgive.

extracted this morning.

On the bright side, at least it's soup weather!

Then there is me... it's Thursday! Where did the week go?!?

I've spent the past several days manually scratch loading and setting back up our main computer. What a pain! I found out my backup software didn't work when it came time to restore.

Tested some different products over the past couple of days and finally decided on one this morning.

Hope everyone is having a great week!
