Find a job mowing lawns or landscaping will get you laid off and on unemployment for the winter. A job working in asphalt also would do it, and probably before November 1st depends on weather.

Yes, they found that kids body, Exavior Harrelson, in a cornfield about 5 miles from his trailer home where he disappeared from in Montezuma. Common school of thought here is the mother had something to do with it or at least knowledge of what happened to him.Hopefully they found some good evidence with the body.

Mollie Tibbits went missing from Brooklyn but an illegal Mexican took, raped and killed her while she was out jogging. He was convicted and sentenced to life in prison, I wouldn't think he'll live long in there if he gets in with the general population.

I worked for Montezuma Mfg. for quite a few years, same company as Williamsburg Mfg. and Traer Mfg. at the time. Yes a sucky greasy job. I welded there mostly, much better than operating a press IMO but I did quite a bit of that as well. When my boy was born I stopped working there, took a few collage classes to learn more about computers and started making skinning machines and other welding jobs so I could stay home with him. Plan was to go back to work after he started school but the self employment with my wife's teaching salary is enough money for us so I'm now semi-retired. I still don't like Mondays though since the wife and boy go back to school and we can't go play like we do on the weekends and on summer vacation.


Ya they deal with both those places u mention an the biggest one deal with is in Davenport , a sucky greasy loud job is right an for pay, on rough side , never been injure on job but lucky , not sure if it the place or that what tps are like as in last 2 weeks I had work 2 new temps, 1 work 2 days 1 week an next 2 more an walk out door an quit an I think one day he was think about it but decide not to, the other work last week Thurs an Fri an same deal walk out door at break, wasnt work with them happen , I see what Nov brings

Mark going to the doctor doesn't necessarily mean medication, maybe all that is necessary is a therapist and some counseling.


I mentioned pills because Dave mentioned he was taking more of them (I think that's what his post said - be goshed if I know).
Agreed, integrated counselors can accomplish much!

Blessings,

This! Happiness in life is a choice! If you start looking around you for everything that's going right, and for the beautiful things that you've been walking past without even noticing, instead of feeding your negative thoughts every waking hour, your life will start getting better.

I've learned to find joy in every day no matter how bad circumstances are. I have started recognizing small blessings from GOD I'm surrounded by (what my family now calls Heaven Hugs).

Start exercising positive, happy thoughts and actions. Complement people. Smile. Be happy. Fake it til you make it if you have to. Just plain choose to be happy!

Wish you the best but you have to change yourself and no one can do that but you. I think your outlook would change if you got a different job and dropped the 2 your at which now they both suck. Tomorrow when you get off work at the machine shop why don't you stop at Bodine?

Again it's up to you to change.

I don’t know if you go to church, but if you don’t, find you a country church and start going.
It would help settle your nerves and people wud pray for you and help you when times get hard.
Never known of God not helping people in times like of stress.

been retired for a little over a dozen years.
I never hated Mondays. Just gotta slog in and get at it.
Since retired now Saturdays and Sundays are the my least favorite days of the week with Sunday being the worst of the two.
All week days are the best, in fact every day is great.

Gotta live your best life and always try to do better and never stop watching and learning, whether its your job, fishing, trapping or knitting afghans, whatever floats your boat.
