If you were to give a party

-

If you were to give a party and said “no alcohol allowed” and someone ignored your request what would you do?  The underage drinking discussion came up at work about how kids still sneak it in (but this question isn’t about having kids at the party-well may be on some level) to parties and I wondered what they would do.  I also ask this as my friend Rose mentioned about “oh you need to have alcohol at a party”. 

I am not saying I don’t attend parties that serve alcohol nor am I saying I that we never serve alcohol before.  I did and circumstances changed for me and with Alcoholism being very prevalent in society I was just wondering why people would insist on doing what they wanted despite being asked for no alcohol.  I would have preferred that alcohol not be served at parties I am giving and one day it won’t.

One day the wine that is downstairs in the cellar is going to be way gone.  I won’t have it in the house-I don’t think we have a lot.  We usually give it away anyhow.

I would be interested in what your thoughts on this are.

One Day Closer to the Weekend

-
Today was awesome. I did wake up early but stayed in bed a little longer than I wanted to but that is okay. I got the clothes out of the dryer from last night and watched TV for a bit. I got ready for work and then Mom got up for her meeting at Bridges. The drive to work was great (hardly anyone on the roads or in the parking garage). The crunch was on to get as much AR in as possible for not only Month end but fiscal year end. I think we did pretty darn well. I was concerned that there wasn’t a lot of volume of mail for being the end of month or year but it was explained to me that it’s okay because it’s the time of year (huh?). Anyway, I managed to get all of the mail done and was able to put another dent in the readdress mail. I worked until 6 and did the NOPPS. This will be the only OT for the next week or so. After work I headed home. Traffic was heavy through out the 95 corridor. I am thinking it was people leaving early for the Holiday weekend. I did manage to get ho...

Turning 55

-
Today My Sister turns 55. Unfortunately all I did was sing her the birthday song. When Mom and I arrived at her house she was having dinner with Rich and Nelson. Actually Nelson was in the backroom napping and Liz and Rich were chatting and eating pizza. Mom had a card for Liz and handed it to her and Liz made some stupid joke “well you spelled my name right!” I gave her a swat. I think about it and wanted to slug her. She pisses me off when she pulls that shit. We stayed for about 15 20 minutes to get a latest scoop on Jess’s wedding apparently some of the gifts were taken or misplaced. We talked about going to the C bridal shower on Saturday. Liz is not sure if she is going. Once that was established we headed home. We had dinner and then I came upstairs and spent the evening watching NCIS and now I am going to bed.

Monday Musings 6/16/2025

  I was going to say it's been busy.   It's just another Monday at work.    I arrived at approximately 7:30 and engaged in a discussion with KB and BL (Administrators) before commencing work.    The health logic sorting commenced at 11:30 following the completion of document printing.        I got them all sorted and ready to be scanned by 1. I spent the afternoon scanning but grew tired.   After work, I was glad to come home, relax, and cook since I had no other plans.    Sky emerged from the closet when I fed him.   Now that I think I will go to bed early.
