Did anyone watch Cheers?

We have an "assignment" for work. We were assigned a character from the show Cheers and we have to take something from their character and share it with the group. BUT - it has to be something customer oriented related or something we can implement as a team to improve our service to employers.

I drew Sam Malone. Can anyone help me out here????

Please???

How bout them Tigers?

We went to the basketball game last night. I wasn't sure who to cheer for, both teams had moments of horrible play. I wanted to leave early, but Greg wouldn't, and I'm glad. The game ended up being good in the last few minutes.

John came to visit two weekends ago and take his couch back. We went to a hockey game and had a good time.

It's career fair/recruiting season, Woo Hoo

I have Bunco tonight and I might be joining another Bunco group too.

Happy Birthday Kara!

It's my friend Kara's birthday today! Happy Birthday! I'm taking her out to dinner tonight.

I tried to load Christmas pictures, but Blogger wouldn't let me. :(

I got my haircut yesterday. It looks super cute. Hopefully I can recreate the look tomorrow.

Mark and Amy brought me back on Saturday. We gave them a quick tour of somethings around here.

I got to get back to work. I'll try to load the pictures tomorrow.

PS - I broke down and bought Plum Spooky yesterday at Hastings. I was looking for a calendar for Greg and it called my name. However, I haven't read very much of it yet.

Our horse escaped yesterday. Luckily our neighbor put him back and he didn't make it to the highway. Of course Greg is traveling so I'm going to be taking care of him. Great, just great. Greg told me how to get him back into his pen in case he escapes again. I cross my fingers he is there when I get home tonight.

Back in Oklahoma and work

Mondays suck......

Happy New Year from the Meier's!

I hope everyone has a safe and fun new years. I have many updates to share at some point as well as some Christmas pictures to upload
I saw Carson and Brody. Both are adorable.
We are going to be an aunt and uncle again, and no, it's not one of my siblings. Josey is going to be a big sis.
Josey tricked me into being a horse for her.
I got 30 new pairs of socks for Christmas (and I'm keeping them all, I really needed new socks)
I'm hanging with the family tonight and I'm being paged to play cards...

HAPPY NEW YEARS!

Travelin Time

We are headed out tomorrow, so I guess that means I should really pack my stuff tonight. I have the Christmas presents packed up, but not anything else.

I hope the weather cooperates for our travels. It is suppose to get warm here finally today or tomorrow but I don't think that is the case in Northeast Missouri. I am not looking forward to any ice. :(

We went to the Exposure sale over the weekend and it was good. The quote of the weekend would be "CHOPPER, Woo Hoo!" Seeing the boys dancing that night was hilarious. The Griswold crew have a dance called "Driving Fence Posts" and Tucker was pretty darn good at it although Bruce was good too. The top selling heifer was for $65,000 and 1/3 semen interest, no possession in Chopper sold for $63,500 I think. We also went to the Euchee Creek sale Saturday night. Needless to say, Saturday was a long day.

The office is slow today, we are all waiting to see if we get to go home early today. We have our fingers crossed. If not, we decided we are all leaving at 2:00 p.m.

It may be awhile before I post again, depending on if I have time while I am home.

Happy Holidays!

Two more days....

of work, then I'm off for almost 2 weeks! Working at an university does have it's perks.

Greg and Tracy

Greg has been crazy busy the last couple of days. He has been leaving around 6ish in the morning to go to work. Last night he got home a little after 10, switched some stuff around in the Trailblazer and headed north. Felipe and him have to do a ton of transfers today in Kansas. This morning he said they drove until 12:30 a.m. and stopped to spend the night and left this morning at 7 a.m. to get the farm on time. I'm going to have one tired husband tonight (if they decide to drive back.)

So I made my cutout cookies over the weekend. I have pictures of them, but of course I haven't uploaded them and the camera is at home. I got a lot of compliments on them, so you should definitely try them out. The recipe came from McKenzie's blog and can be found here. They are Shortbread Sugar Cookies.

I'm almost done Christmas shopping. I'm going to tie up the lose ends tonight or tomorrow. Greg may have to help with the Exposure sale tomorrow, so I might drop him off then go shopping until the sale starts.

I'm not looking forward to packing for the trip home. Since I'm going to have an extended stay and we are taking the truck and trailer, room may be limited. I hear it is suppose to be cold, so I want to make sure to pack plenty of warm clothes. We are leaving the 24th to head to Jackson, dropping off Jake (I'm going to miss him) and a cow, picking up a different horse, and heading north to p-town on the 26th. Greg is leaving the 28th to come back to Oklahoma. My return date is still questionable.

My birthday was good. 4-H had their holiday luncheon that day so I went over to it and caught up with old co workers. (Note to Kellie - Judy is a Grandma, everyone misses you, and there are lots of new faces there. )

I guess I should get back to work. I thought I had a picture of our Christmas tree but I can't seem to find it. Maybe I'll take some pictures this weekend and post before I leave for break.
