Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone

The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.

Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!

How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

From The Corner Of My Mind

* It's a beautiful clear cool morning.
* W-spouse and I looked at 15-20 Jeeps late yesterday at Specialty Autoplex or the online version at FunJeeps.com. We found a couple of Jeeps that we are very interested in. The owner is a huge Harley Davidson fan and will take a trade in on the bike. If the other deal we are working on falls through, we will probably go this route.
* Insurance adjuster is coming today to look at the water damage. I had a friend look at a few pictures that we took for him and he didn't think it was that bad.
* W-spouse and I are at odds about whether to remove the skylight completely or leave it in and risk another leak in the future.
* My take on the matter is this, anytime you cut a hole in a roof for anything, your potential for leaks increases drastically.
* Her take is that she always wanted  a skylight over her vanity, and this house had one when we bought it. She wants to keep it. I respect her feelings.
* As I went to sleep last night, I was watching a one hour special about Casey Anthony. Guilty. Of. Something.
* Also as I went to sleep last night, there was an ongoing Tweet/Group text regarding the addition of a new member to our group texts. It was a unanimous vote FOR bringing her in the group text, but she has to meet certain criteria before she is a fully patched in member. Only thing was, no one would volunteer to tell her what the criteria was. She may not want in as bad as she thinks. Hey, we all had to get jumped into the gang.
* The videos and pictures are shocking at times. "The Willy Dilly","The Suds Pic", "The Giraffe", and "The Shower Video" just to name a few.
* Get your minds out of the gutter. All of our group are respected, well behaved, well mannered, mature adults.
* Put a smile on, see ya Around The Corner!

A lot easier to fix a roof leak than an unhappy wife.

Keep the skylight! Ours was just great (even better) after we replaced it. Natural light is irreplaceable! #TeamSpouse

You need to keep her happy before she tries to find someone closer to her own age.

Solartubes (or something like that) are great. Have had them for years and no leaks! But about $300 up for each one. Love the light too.

I have to agree with the consensus that you should keep the skylight. Hope the trade works out with the jeep. Mo
