DYK I just love it when Bruce plans a trip for us?

DYK Whether I know what is happening or not?

DYK I used to be the same way (a bit of a control freak), but found out that Bruce is really very good at planning trips, so when he offers, I go with it?

DYK And he really likes planning the trips, so I figure that is one hassle, or potential hassle I can avoid?

DYK So I say, sit back, relax and let Aaron do this for you, Lindsy?

DYK Think of it as a gift from him to you and just enjoy it!

DYK Sounds like you do have a lot of food, Jennie?

DYK I would think you could get by with just a few things, to maybe round out the meals?

DYK Have you planned out some meals yet?

DYK A lot of times, I will plan meals out, but not pre-determine when to make what?

DYK It allows me to stay flexible, while still making sure I have plenty of 'good for us' meals that can be made?

DYK Well, it hasn't messed up my day?

DYK I slept in this morning and Bruce dealt with it?

DYK Since our business was on our inclement weather plan anyway, he just got Maegan on the bus a few hours later and went on to work 2 hours late?

DYK Our clients know how they can contact him outside the office, so no harm done, and he had told our employees to decide for themselves if they felt they could make it in to the office today?

DYK Some of our employees have quite a drive, so in inclement weather, it's sometimes better for them to work from home?

dyk yep, R, I just planned on making a list of what meals I can make, what I have leftovers of (which will be used up first) and then only filling in the gaps


dyk I wonder if I would do better to shop for 2 weeks at a time and then just do the second week with drinks/fruit and a few fillers?

dyk Bruce sounds like a great boss!


dyk Sean's at work, cold and bored


dyk not many people are out and about in this weather around here!!!!


dyk I am incredibly agitated - hormone surge I'm sure - my kids better hop to or they are going to get the brunt of it!


dyk Abi is getting some warmer clothes on - we're about to do a mosaic art project by cutting up the spin art squares and gluing them on a posterboard

DYK I wish I could just grocery shop every 2 weeks?

DYK With needing to buy fresh produce, I usually shop twice a week?

DYK But usually, I will find that every 3 weeks or so, I just need a few things and for that week, my grocery bill is really light?

DYK Bruce has been after me that we need to defrost the freezer, but it's hard to do that when you need stuff in there for meals?

DYK Although we could probably do the defrost right now, since it's so cold that nothing would thaw out there in the garage right now?

DYK Hope you are staying warm, Jennie?

DYK Would an electric heater or something help you?

DYK Something you could turn on in the room that you're in, but somehow keep the kids away from?

DYK Or how about an electric throw for the couch?

DYK I got one of those for Christmas last year and I love it?

DYK Bruce is a great boss?

DYK He's probably easier going than I am in most situations?

DYK But I totally agree with him when it comes to giving our employees the choice of coming in or sending them home early because of bad weather?

DYK Our employees don't abuse that, so that makes it easy?

DYK The mosaic art project sounds like fun!
