12 of 12 - November 2009

Oops - sort of forgot last months 12 of 12. Been so busy at work, I sort of woke up one day and wondered why I had extra cash in my checking account and then realized payday (the 15th) had already passed, and of course along with it, the 12th. Such is the life of someone who does forecasting analysis for a living. I'm always working a couple of weeks or months ahead.

Anyway, here we go for November.

8:45 a.m. - Time to make the donuts.




8:46 a.m. - For some reason, I must always write my name with my finger when I find a fogged up window or shower door. Yes, I'm still 12.


8:47 a.m. - Not sure if you can see this, but squirrels have apparently gnawed through the cedar shingles on the front of my house above the porch to the left of that tree. Got a guy coming to fix it while I'm at work. In the Small World game of life, my brother was his coach in high school 20 years ago. I think I got a good deal on the price because of that. Thank God all my brother's former students love him so.



8:47 a.m. - and here we go on the long commute to work.


8:48 a.m. - Love when the leaves are red.

8:49 a.m. - Dangit - caught the red light. Now my commute time has doubled.


9:50 a.m. - Diet Coke - the Breakfast of Champions. And that's only cause they don't sell little chocolate donuts and cigarettes at the Woolman Cafe here at work.


9:56 a.m. - More red leaves as I head back to our building.


12:15 p.m. - all the other 12 of 12er's who I follow always have these wonderful, healthy looking meals. Here is my lunch. No wonder I always feel like I'm dying.

6:07 p.m. - Everything you ever wanted to know about the Delta Widget/Logo but were afraid to ask.

6:10 p.m. - Finally headed out for the day.


6:11 p.m. - and caught the red light again. Won't make it home until 6:12 now. :-(


So, that is it. I've been sick for several weeks, and was wiped out by the time I got home, so I immediately crashed and slept for 6 hours and just woke up. Of course, now I'm awake and can't sleep again. Still, I'm gonna try.

Good night all and see you next month on the 12th.

Hey, Joni, I'm 67 years old and still write my name on the wet windows. (Makes Diane mad, because she later has to come behind me and clean them.) Hope you're feeling better.

I LOVE red leaves. All we get are yellow, which are nice, but I LOVE red!

Another 15th-is-payday person! Me too, and it confuses people when I get to say the 10th and put a FB status of "Come on payday!".

Love the autumn colours, makes me remember my trip to Atlanta last Otober/November!

Sorry I'm late in looking - busy work week!

Joni, I hope you read this!!!!

I did a google search on Charlise Gillespie and found your site. I was a client of your aunts as was my wife, we saw her several times during the period of 1985-1990 but then lost contact with her. She told me the last time I saw her that she was moving to Hapeville to be close to family, but then we lost contact. I live in Sandy Springs off Johnson's Ferry at Riverside drive which is was very close to where she use to live(I think Dunn Courtney?). I would like to know more about her death, I didn't realize she had passed. We all will miss her she was truly one in a million. What a gifted astrologer....

Thank you for having the blog and posting your feelings about Charlsie. I have been looking for her for years.
