Turn on your receiver , I’m gonna lay it on the line

Posted on by Shawshank

Good morning. It’s a cool, bright morning here. Coffee is brewing and I’m slowly waking up. I’m sorry if this is gonna be short or feel disjointed but like I said, I’m struggling to put words together this am.

I got a text early this morning. The chair that I took the final payment on yesterday, was the wrong chair. I screwed up somewhere, so I’m gonna head into work, probably this morning before lunch to figure out where I screwed up, and to find the actual chair. I feel terrible about screwing this up. The BossLady says not to worry about it, the customer understands.

I’ll make it right, as fast as possible for them.

Ok, coffee is done brewing. It’s Sunday, and it’s going to be a good day!

Something Different – Downton Abbey

Posted on by Shawshank

Hey book nerds! I’ll be honest, right off the bat. I haven’t read a page this week, and instead of fluffing up a Book Club post, I figured I’d just tell you about the show I’ve been watching instead.

I am truly loving Plain Bad Heroines. I really am, but I’ve gotten in the groove of after supper, just watching an episode of Downton Abbey. It relaxes me to be thrust into 1920s high society. And it’s just enough time for an episode (not the season premieres or the finales, but the 2 or 3 regular episodes) to get a spoon or two back for the day, then I call the Beautiful One. The cares of the day fade away.

My ringtone is the theme song.

I love this show. I don’t know why. I’m very happy that I was able to finally find it digitally. I can’t even remember how I found the CBC Gem app, but I’m so happy I did. It is laughable that if I watch an episode on my phone, I get commercials. If I cast it, I don’t. Well that’s not true, one episode I got a total of 4 commercials, and the episode I watched last night, I got a random Downy commercial.

I just started season 3. (Again, I’ve seen the whole series twice now, this is my third viewing of it.) It’s something I look forward to each night. it’s a nice day to just wind down. And I can just lay there. Next week, I’m thinking that I’ll watch an episode one night, read the next. That way I get the best of both. I have missed reading this last week, but I’ll get back into it!

So yeah, that’s how I spent the last week. No complaints. Gosh, it’s nice to talk about my likes. I tried at work when they asked what I did the night before, and they looked at me like I had 3 heads when I said I watched Downton. So I’ve learned just just say I read it watched TV.

It’s easier that way!

Until next time, book nerds!
