      My daughter who is an engineer for Northrop Grumman gets every other Friday off. When Tom and I were working for Lockheed Martin we worked every Friday.

      On a separate note Angel is slowly coming out of her shell. She has declared my bedroom as her safe zone but she is starting to explore the house a little bit more. This morning she seemed a little antsy so I took her outside. The cats watched her like a hawk but she takes zero interest in them.

      This morning I let her explore the backyard by herself (vs walking her on a leash) and she walked around, explored the yard and did her business. I feed the cats while she explored then went and walked her back into the house. I keep a leash on her as she doesn't come to me yet.

          Chuck, Tom and I moved from Florida to Colorado to work for Martin Marietta which later became Lockheed Martin. We moved back to Florida in 1991 or so as a job transfer and worked for them until the company decided to start laying off 50-ish employees, first they laid off Tom and five years later me. I wanted them to lay me off bad. Tom and I have worked at the same location and we would ride to work and have lunch together. I was so happy when they laid me off. We were already set for retirement with our 401Ks. We were both software engineers. Basely worked from 1981 to 2009 or so.

            Back in the day, Pat. I was a mechanical engineer for a company that did contract work for Martin Marietta (Lockheed Martin) in Oak Ridge, TN. Small world.

                It is a small world Frank. These days our daughter Diana is a Aerospace Engineer and she works for Northrop Grumman. Whole dang family is engineers, seems to run in the blood. Both my dad and Tom's dad were Electrical Engineers also (crazy lol).
