Armed with will and determination, and grace, too

Shawshank, July 12, 2023

Welp, it’s morning again. I’ve been up on and off since around 4 this morning. Between Pippin, unruly sheets, and losing the power of breathing through one’s nose, it was a tossy turny morning.

Chaucer is already crawling up on to my lap. Pippin is off doing Pippin things, and I am currently trying to focus my eyes to type this up. It’s a kinda gray morning out there. A little cool, but still a nice morning so far.

Yesterday was a pretty busy morning at work. I was expecting to finish up inventory. I had tasked NewNewGirl to do some addition on the last 4 sections. I was expecting to finish up, but she must have been busy – so I had to finish all of them. Not a problem! I took care of it in a couple of hours.

Then I was off. My dad had asked the day before if I could help him lift the transmission from the ground into his truck. So when I got home I texted mom to say I could help anytime. She said that it was already done. My dad got a friend with a forklift to help move it.

Bonus!

Ok, coffee time. It’s hump day. Getting closer to the weekend. This is my last Saturday off. Then I’m covering vacations, so I’ll be there on Saturdays for the next three weeks. Fun times!

Good morning, it’s bright and sunny and I’m awake, and not too groggy. I actually slept right until my alarm went off today. I’m wicked sore from moving a cabinet bed by myself yesterday. But, BossLady is in CapitalCity, so it’s like a mini vacation today. The coffee is brewing, that means it’s a day…

I was in a deep sleep when the alarm went off this morning. This, I’m super groggy this morning. I’m not looking forward to getting up at 4:30 in the morning next week. But hey, it’s Friyay. When you’re closing, it just doesn’t hit the same way. But anyways, it’s Friyay, and I don’t have…

Wind on the weathervane

Since I got here, I've adopted a few chores. Like taking out the trash when it appears by the door. Vacuuming. Sous chef when needed, and each night I water the 3 tomato plants, the cucumbers, and the strawberries. Originally, the plants were my grammas, but she doesn't get around very well at all anymore, and…
