Happy St. Patrick's Day!! Are you wearing something green today??? :P

Today I will work with old books again. Books from the 17th, 18th century. It is so much fun :D



Picture of the Day

[ccharles000]

1. Good morning

B-)

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Good morning ccharles

nice glasses :D

[Sky Masterson]

3. Happy St.Pattys day Miss O'Honeychurch

Wow! Those are some old books. Are you researching them or restoring them?
:hi: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Good morning Sky

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I am cataloging the books :)

[Sky Masterson]

5. That is very cool..

:hi: Lovely picture btw. The first thing I thought when i saw it was the song Blackbird by the Beatles.
Now I have an earworm :D

[MissHoneychurch]

6. Not the worst earworm

My favorite Beatles song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDJ-015ojec&feature=related

[Sky Masterson]

7. No it isn't a bad one.

Fool on the hill was my favorite Beatles tune my senior year of High school.
My current favorite is I dig a Pony.

8. Good morning MissH!

Don't think I'll be wearing green today, unless there's something deep in my closet that I can come up with.

Yesterday was such a splendid day, temps in the 60's. Everyone was in a grand mood, shedding their winter jackets, just walking around and smiling. I think today's is going to be a repeat. :)



:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

9. Good morning Callalily

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Isn't it amazing what a sunny day and some nice temps do to one after a long winter? It is like we are blooming too :D

[Callalily]

10. Yes, that is so true,

especially in these parts where winter just seems to linger on, we truly appreciated the first warm, sunny days.

When you catalog such old books, must you wear those fancy white gloves? It must be thrilling to handle such books.

[MissHoneychurch]

13. Nope

I am allowed to touch them without those fancy gloves :D And I am even writing something in the books :wow:

[Callalily]

23. Write in an ancient book?

Wow! No wonder you love your job. I got to handle a 14th century Book of Hours once (with gloves). The illustrations were fabulous, and still very colorful.

[MissHoneychurch]

25. Yup

I write the signature and another number on the inside of the front cover. :)

[Callalily]

28. Interesting!

Oh, I did find a green top to wear today, so I'm good for St. Patty's day. :rofl: Absolutely no Irish heritage in me though. ;)

Gotta head out to work. Wishing you a great day.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

30. Have a great day too

:hug:

[AirmensMom]

12. Good morning, Miss lily!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Send that day here, could ya? We've had rain for almost a week. Not like we haven't needed it ... but a sunny day would be welcome! Glad you might get two in a row. :hug:

[Callalily]

20. Good morning AirmensMom!

I know all too well how multiple cloudy days can put a damper on one's disposition. At least you can justify it, well, to a point anyway.

If I had the power, I certainly would send some sunshine your way.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[AirmensMom]

22. Yay!

I didn't miss you today! :woohoo: :bounce:

I would have liked to see some of this rain last summer when we were trying to grow grass. It's really hard to get used to after living in FL. I don't think we ever had more than 3 days of rain in a row (unless you can count an afternoon shower as "rain") down there ... and can't remember many times when we had more than 2. I swear, sometimes I think I'll never see the sun again! :scared:

You're sweet. :hug: Once you get the power, I'll be looking for that sunshine!

[AirmensMom]

11. Good morning, MissHC!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Wait ... let me look ... nope, not wearing green. Oh, wait a minute, I am! :bounce: Do green polka-dotted bikinis count? :D

Your pic looks so sunny and spring like. I am ready for a day like that. :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

15. Good morning AirmensMom

Absolutely. I am wearing green undies :7

[AirmensMom]

16. Great minds ...

of course, I actually didn't plan it that way. It's just what was on top. :shrug:

Busy day coming up. And harleydad is coming home tonight. No time to finish the project, but he'll still be surprised! :bounce:

Oh, and Simon says he's tired of the rain and tired of being grounded. Yeah, I ground them on rainy days because they go off hiding and my nerves can't take that. Maybe tomorrow they can get un-grounded! :woohoo:

[MissHoneychurch]

18. Same here

just grabbed it without looking which color :rofl:

It is kinda sweet that harleydad doesn't want to stay away longer :loveya:

I do understand Simon. Give him a big smooch and tell him his momma says everything will be alright. :*

[AirmensMom]

19. Good thing!

Now we're pinch-proof! But wait ... do we have to PROVE that we're wearing green? :rofl:

Yeah, harleydad is seriously homesick. I think it makes him even MORE homesick when I'm not begging him to come home! :rofl:

I'll do that. I actually smooched him a lot last night at bedtime. But that one was from me. This will be from you. :*

[MissHoneychurch]

21. Well

we don't have St. Patrick's Day here in Germany so no one will bother me ... you .... :shrug:

:rofl: Men .....

[AirmensMom]

24. No one will bother me.

Not even my men ... when they show up, which will be any second now (and I'll disappear quietly).

Yep! Here they are!

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

26. Have a great day

:hi:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

14. Good Morning MissHoneychurch :)

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :pals:

Mad dash time. Long night, very little sleep.

Mom's back in the hospital with an infection, they took her in at about 11 last night. :(

Hopefully we'll be busy today, it makes the day pass quicker.

[MissHoneychurch]

17. Good morning SCE

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Sorry to hear about your mom. Hope she is doing better soon. Sending ~~~HEALING VIBES~~~ her way. :hug:

[blueraven95]

27. Good Afternoon, MissH!

I forgot to wear any visible green. :shrug:


How are you? :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

29. Good morning blueraven

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Sounds like St. Patrick's Day isn't the biggest event in your life :D

I am doing fine. Toe is a lot better, maybe this time they got everything out and I am done for good.
Now I need to get over the afternoon but I am not done with the books yet. I think that will keep me busy the next hours :)

How are you doing?

[blueraven95]

31. yeah, I guess it isn't

I mean, I enjoy it, but there isn't any reason to make it a big deal (of course, my Irish great-grandmother would be rolling in her grave if she heard me say that) :rofl:

I'm good. I've got a lot to do today, but it's more under control than I thought it was when I left work yesterday. Your books sound like more fun than my stuff though.

[MissHoneychurch]

33. Depends

on how you find it to suddenly see that you have 3 copies of the same book and one copy is missing :eyes:

[blueraven95]

37. well, that's annoying.

on the other hand, if we switch, you can spend your morning searching for a product, that the faculty are insisting should be made, that doesn't appear to exist. :eyes:

[MissHoneychurch]

38. Sounds as much fun

:rofl:

[blueraven95]

40. yep.

do you have any fun plans for this evening?

[MissHoneychurch]

42. It is amazing how often I search for a book

and the most fun is when you tell someone in the house "You have the book, you ordered it then and then" and they INSIST!!!! they don't have it ... guess who has it. Yep, that person :eyes:

No plans for tonight. But I just found me a recipe I wanna cook tonight. With calliflower and potatoes and rice and tomatoes and Indish spices. Sounds yummy :)

I will visit my mom coming weekend.

[blueraven95]

59. that doesn't sound like any fun at all.

:grr:




I was thinking about trying a new pasta recipe tonight that a friend gave me. I'll let you know tomorrow if it worked or not.




Your weekend sounds fun. It's a little sad that it's only Tuesday and we are already thinking about the weekend.


I have another stupid Germany question for you. (that is the question is stupid, not Germany :)) I need to buy a train ticket for my boss to go from the Munich airport to Erlangen on this Saturday (March 22st). Is this search correct: http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?ld=212.207&seqnr=2&ident=5i.013601207.1237295594&rt=1&OK#focus

I hope you can see it. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

63. It is annoying at the time

but makes for a couple of good laughs as well.

The search is correct :)


Hmmm ... what kind of pasta recipe? I am a sucker for pasta. I could eat them daily.

[blueraven95]

65. thank you

I know I sound stupid, but I don't want to make a mistake and have him wandering about Germany lost.



It's a spaghetti recipe but with chicken instead of beef. I don't eat a lot of pasta at all, so it's different for me.

[MissHoneychurch]

66. You could offer him to search for him

in person in case he gets lost with the help of a German friend :D

Pasta is almost an addiction for me :blush:

[blueraven95]

67. I really do keep trying that tactic

he just says that if I travel as much as he does I would get bored with it. I told him to give me a chance to get bored. :rofl:




I know a lot of people who love pasta. I don't not like it, it's just not an addiction for me. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

69. Good tactic

continue to bug till he gives in :D

What do you prefer to eat?

[blueraven95]

70. probably my favorite foods are Mexican and South American

but I'm willing to try just about anything :-)

with the exception of onions. I'm allergic to them, so I steer clear.

[MissHoneychurch]

71. I love Mexican too

but we don't have as many good restaurants over here and cooking it myself .. haven't taken up on that task yet.

[blueraven95]

72. it tends to be really easy

even for a non-cook like me.

[Blue_Tires]

32. are you going to the Frankfurt Auto Show in the fall?

there will be thousands of photo opportunities there...you'll have enough to post good morning threads for years!

[MissHoneychurch]

34. Good morning blue_tires

:hi:

Not sure. I am not really that much into cars.

[Blue_Tires]

68. well now you can start your love of cars! photograph that show and I'll pay you thousands

(of pennies)

[Brewman_Jax]

35. G'day, MissH

:hi: :hug:

Working with historical books has to be a lot of fun. Do you wear the gloves, too?

Also, how is standing and walking after the surgery?

[MissHoneychurch]

36. Good morning Brewman

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I don't wear any gloves. Therefor my fingers get rather dirty while working with the books. :)

Toe is fine, walking no problem. Only have a bandaid on it, nothing more.

[Brewman_Jax]

43. Glad to hear

glad to see that you're not in pain. Hopefully, we'll have a soccer team show tonight.

Sunday, I was at a karaoke memorial party by chance. One of the karaoke regulars died last week and the karaoke DJ set up a special edition karaoke night in his honor. It was an original concept, and I thought it was a great idea. I'll have to start a post, but I have training most of the day today. :P

[MissHoneychurch]

45. Did you sing?

:D

[Brewman_Jax]

50. Yes

and since the honored deceased was a Frank Sinatra fan, all of the songs were classic rock and country. I didn't know about the event, I was at the sports bar after going to a sport and social club (new name for singles' club) get-together with my friend who is a member. The DJ asked me if I wanted to sing, and I said yes, of course. I know the DJ because the regular karaoke night is Saturday.

My songs were "Redemption Song" by Bob Marley and "Drift Away" by Dobie Gray.

[MissHoneychurch]

53. Oh nice

I bet it was a lot of fun and a very nice memory for the deceased person.

I doubt I would sing by myself. I can't hold a tune. :eyes:

[Brewman_Jax]

55. You can do it

I believe in you! You can carry a tune, just use a bag, like I do. :D :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

58. ROFL

I will try it the next time I get near a Karaoke bar ... not that the chances are big :D :rofl:

[Brewman_Jax]

60. There's always some liquid courage

they normally have a few drink specials for karaoke night. :beer:

[MissHoneychurch]

62. I would need more than one drink

that is for sure :rofl:

[In_The_Wind]

39. Of course I'll be wearin' something green today!

when I finally get dressed
Do you sneeze very much while you're working with the older tomes?

[MissHoneychurch]

41. Good morning Joani

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Really good to see you.

No, fortunately I am not allergic to book dust :)

How are things with you?

[In_The_Wind]

44. slow, very slow

I'm still moving shampoo bottles around while I'm waiting to move trucks down the highway.

[MissHoneychurch]

46. When will you start with the escort?

Do you have dates already?

[In_The_Wind]

49. ASAP ~ I hope! My ride is ready & so am I.

I got one phone call from a trucker in Maine but the Broker couldn't get us together for a Monday run. It was too late for a Friday trip. x( We would have been stuck at a truck stop for the weekend.

I'm sending out intro letters by snail mail and giving out business cards to every escort I see stopped anywhere. My next self advertising move will be to fax or email an intro letter to trucking companies and brokers if I haven't already mailed em a letter.




BTW ~ How did your date with the moving man go?

[MissHoneychurch]

52. You know I wish you the best

:hug:


Date never happened. He decided to do the disappearing trick :eyes:

[malta blue]

47. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

:bounce::bounce:

Here I sit at the airport attempting to get home again. The fog looks worse this morning than yesterday :scared:

You are so lucky to get to work with the old books. How fun....

[MissHoneychurch]

48. Good morning malta

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

~~~VIBES~~~ that your flight is leaving on schedule today :hug:

When I had my job interwiew here my former back-then-to-be-boss showed me the stack with all the old books ... the smell alone made my happy :)

[malta blue]

73. I am still at the airport...

I might get out in a couple of hours....

[Inchworm]

51. G'mornin

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

:woohoo:

:toast:

[MissHoneychurch]

54. Good morning Inchworm

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

I hope you recovered from your weekend? :D

[Inchworm]

56. Still feeling a little green around the edges

But I hear birdies chirping :P

A good say ahead.

:woohoo:

[MissHoneychurch]

57. YAY

And later on a nice guiness :D

[seaker]

61. Happy St. Pat's to you too, Miss. H.

Yes, I will wear green.:toast:

[MissHoneychurch]

64. Good morning seaker

:hi: :hug:

Finally someone who is openly admitting to wearing green :D

Any plans for tonight?
