Ugh! I hate having to work during shutdowns. I shouldn't be complaining though. I still have a job that it didn't look like I was gonna have. It also looks like I will have it for a little while longer. At least 3 or 4 weeks. There is still something awful about working when the rest of the company is having a two week holiday. It is better than 2 weeks of not getting paid but it still blows.

The dinner Saturday night went great. I cooked the prime rib a little more than I like. Everything else came out great and we we had a great visit with Mark's family.
