Is that your tortoise that was born without eyes? Or is it a different one? I can't tell from the picture. Did you see that thread about somebody who also had a little tortoise born without eyes? I can't remember the name of the thread right now, something like sajames...

This is a hatchling I picked up from Tom a couple years ago. As for a different thread/tortoise hatched without eyes, no I haven't seen that thread.

Oh okay. I thought your little tortoise without eyes was small right now but I couldn't quite remember. I think I can still milk this "mental fog from anesthesia" thing for a week longer or so I will try to find that thread.

I'm just so happy the car ride is so close to being done. It was worth the drive

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

Look at you being all active and stuff
I'm being lazy and watching the race and snoozing on the couch

I'm running out of the weekend and I'm getting bummed.

 

[leigti]

I always start feeling that way on Sunday afternoons too.

I think we should change the work week . Work 10 hours 4 days a week get three off . That way its more even . Lets write our government to have a law made . Whats one more labor law they love making them anyway .

 

[mike taylor]

Woohoooooo! My 14 year old was out hunting today and shot a big pig! Dinner!

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

But Tom, if we come up with it and want it, they will fight against it. We really don't want 4-10's.

 

[leigti]

Many of the government jobs here already work that schedule. and I'm noticing the more and more other places are two, or closing at noon on Friday. Practically nobody in my department works a Monday through Friday 8 to 430 schedule. I work 3 nine hour, one five hour,and one eight hour shift.. It is nice to have time off during the workweek.

 

[leigti]

I worked seven on seven off at one time and I loved it. Yes it was hard to work 7 ten hour days in a row but the seven off was nice.

Family fun in Lone Pine visiting my sister on our way home from skiing.

I dug out a huge igloo in one of our big snowbanks and it could fit 3 people! Chilled out listening to some country music with a Mikes before I turned into a Popsicle

You have very pretty eyes!

One company I managed the way I increased productivity 32% was by starting a 4-10 schedule. It was great. 10 hours isn't too much and everyone likes a 3 day weekend.

One last pic of my 18yr nephew who works for his fire dept and is going into the Marines when he graduates high school! He's my cowboy of the family!

 

[leigti]

We try to cover quite a long day to accommodate our clients, we see patients from 7 AM till 530 or six sometimes. So between all of us working different kinds of shifts we can get it covered. it is amazing how much morale can improve if people can have a more flexible schedule, instead of the regular 8 to 430 that seems to be the norm in many places. The inpatient staff of course has a very strange schedule because they are covering 365 days a year. but that is not unusual in a healthcare setting there are so many different scheduling schemes going on around there.
