If you haven't read my previous post, this won't make a lick of sense!  Catch up - Dilemma @ Work
Hi, y'all!
Just thought I'd let you all know how things are going at work.
Well, the "cat's outta the bag"!
Yesterday, through an interesting turn of events, I came out with it. I told them I am allergic to cats. They asked me why I didn't bring it to attention earlier, so I explained. Their response varied from explosive laughter to genuine concern.
Today, however, with much of the staff out of state for a training conference, the morning conversation quickly became a plotting session -"How to affably rid the office of Mister Man." 
You just can't do that! There is no curteous way of moving Mister Man. That office is his home; and besides, customers and associates alike search him out to share a special moment of caress! 
I continued to stress my concern for his welfare and how I, in no way wanted to be responsible for his relocating (up, over, or outta the way ). As you can tell, Mister Man's mama was absent.
One of the girls told every single person that entered the office, "We're going to have to do something with Mister Man, April's allergic to cats." I pleaded with her to please not let my addition to the company be the reason something "has to happen to Mister Man". (didn't even slow her down!)
I just don't know how this will end up! 
Good gracious, sounds like an epic drama!
-too funny!

Aircraft Funnies
After every flight, UPS pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft.
The mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight.
Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humor.
Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by UPS' pilots (marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance engineers.
-By the way, UPS is the only major airline that has never, ever, had an accident. (didn't check this out for myself, but it sounds good!)
P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.
P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.
P: Something loose in cockpit.
S: Something tightened in cockpit.
P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.
P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent.
S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.
P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.
P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
S: DME volume set to more believable level.
P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what friction locks are for.
P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.
S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.
P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.
P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.
P: Aircraft handles funny. (I love this one!)
S: Aircraft warned to: straighten up, fly right, and be serious.
P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.
P: Mouse in cockpit.
S: Cat installed.
P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.
S: Took hammer away from midget.
Did ya like 'em?

Pancakes

A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin 5, and Ryan 3.
The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake.
Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.
"If Jesus were sitting here, He would say,
'Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait.'
Kevin turned to his younger brother and said..................
"Ryan, you be Jesus!"

Hello to my friends in blogland. Our pastor has retired and I was just wondering if there are any Church of the Nazarene preachers out there looking for a pastorate in Texas? 
Why does it always try to turn my pic upside down?

"Have a Perfect Day"

Have you ever been wished a perfect day?
I just returned from Mickie D's (McDonalds) where I was wished a perfect day! I don't think I've ever been wished a perfect day before. I've been wished a good day, a wonderful day, etc., but I don't think ever a perfect day.
How optimistic of her! So I started thinking (scary I know )....
I wonder what would have to happen in this day in order for this to be considered a perfect day. Besides the obvious conditions such as world salvation and rapture, world peace, etc. Shy of that, on a much smaller scale. ..hmmm.... What would make today perfect? Have you ever given that much thought? In your individual lives, what would make today perfect for you?
Did I just hear somebody say being serenaded by Brad Paisley's "Everything to Me"?
-sorry it was playing on the radio! 
[clears throat]
But seriously, what would it take for this to be a perfect day for you?
Care to share?
I am wishing each and every one of you to "Have a Perfect Day!"
P.S. It might have to be tomorrow, okay? Today's probably goofed up already!

In This New Year

Yay, it's 2007! A new beginning, a fresh start if you let yourself have one! There were some things that happened in 2006 I am ready to let go of. There are some exciting events that I am looking forward to in 2007. That is, if I let myself go, move forward. At times that can be hard for me because I miss the way things "used to be" sometimes. I see the strife caused by the changing of the times and it alarms me, BUT.... I have resolved to encourage myself to take this opportunity to endeavor to do new things and LIVE more. I have told myself this is the yesterday of tomorrow. I should make more memories that will last a lifetime, because I may need them later! LOL
Looking forward to 2007 with you!
April

Black Clouds Over a Graying Day - by April in 1995

I wrote this poem the last day of 1995. It's so sad to look back at your own pain sometimes; but, it does help you to see how far you've come!
Black Clouds Over a Graying Day
Confetti and champagne,
as for me, down comes the rain.
The icy winds of time for change,
run through my soul as blood through veins.
Past lies of fluorescent skies,
flood back in shades of gray.
Thoughts as unleashed thunder arise,
tender hopes worn harsh have turned away.
Beyond the range of blue are they,
who have challenged chance and now lay lost and betrayed.
For tonight, sweet careless one, I am left shattered in dismay,
to revel in agony at the sobering effects of heart-felt pain.
Remember as the clouds of yesterday diminish into oblivion,
the absent, forsaken essence of the lover that remains herein.

When having trouble hearing the voice of the LORD,
turn down the volume of the world.
I think we all can relate to this one at times, especially at this special time of year.
What do you think?
