    It's all relative ol' chap. Long as you're looking down at the green side of the grass, it's all good.

    Finished a Monthly and a Quarterly customer report, working on the Weekly department reports. These reports barely run on my computer.

    Cranked out three weekly department reports last night and today, only to have a team member point out when I was finished with all three a mistake in the change in account assignment so I went back and updated all three. Luckily I just had to change a lookup table and refresh the data.

    Another team member is looking to add another field to the data so that means updating about nine feeder reports that I export to generate the department reports. Not hard to do but takes a lot of time waiting for the reports to generate.

    Job security, I guess.

    Went out to check the garden after the frost last night. Opened up the ends of our covered beds to let them breathe. Went to check on the spinach we planted and covered with straw last week. Some critter had dug three dog sized holes in our spinach bed. Last time we had holes dug my trail cam exposed a red fox. Will set the cam again tonight. I hope we don't have any of Edward's weasels.

    @First_Warrior , Have the armadillos made it that far east yet? They're digging holes everywhere, here.

    Not that I'm aware of. Never ate a armadillo. How do they taste?

    I tried to catch and eat one, once. Got ahold of the tail, and the beast just burrowed down into the Texas "soil" (mostly rock) while I stood there pulling with all my 18 year old strength. Eventually, I gave up. I've been told that the leg meat is the only part that's any good. Tastes like turtle, they say, if that helps.

    That's exactly what that c o o n was digging for! I caught one and it's three babies about a month ago wrecking havoc on the flower beds! Always thought it was a dillo but they fooled me. Going to make a deceptive sign that says "C o o n, Dillo, Possum NOT welcome!".

    If you quote me do the @TX98Z28 in your text or I won't be notified of your quote, Thanks.

    I tried that with rabbits once. Couldn't figure out if they can't read or just ignored the sign.

    Lettuce has seeds? They must only use seedless lettuce on Big Macs.

    They probably wouldn't do anything anyway. I have never been able to grow any buns.

    That's great, Edward.

    Ate lunch and brewed another pot of coffee. Back to the TPS reports, where's my red stapler.
