I’m just a 40-something bearded guy trying to get a fresh start.

Move aside, and let the man go through

So I remembered that I forgot to reset my alarm. This morning. When it went off at 4:30am. I immediately shut it off, and went back to sleep. The last thought I thunk, before falling back asleep was, well I guess I could get up.

Spoiler alert, I didn’t get up. I fell back asleep until 6. But I looked at the alarm clock and went back to sleep. The. Up again at 6:30. Then finally up for the day, at 7:30. So yeah I lost a half hour of being awake. That’s ok. I slept in a little bit.

But we’re up, and coffee has been distributed. The kitties slept with us all morning. Pippin right next to me. I feel bad for her because every time I moved, or the once I got up, was physically moved when I got up to use the bathroom. I apologized to her late on for moving her with the blankets. I think she knew I didn’t know she was sleeping right there.

Nothing much on deck for today. It’s still mostly dark out there, and again the wind has picked up a little bit. We have no plans for the day. I don’t even think that I’ll be getting dressed today.

Poutine for dinner!

Good morning, good afternoon my friends. I didn’t feel like posting at 4:40 in the morning, so I figured that I would defer it to this afternoon, and now here I am!

While the week just seemed to fly by, it’s been a long week. I actually worked 5 days this week, after all the holidays. Boom, right back to it. So that took a little to get used to this week!

I’m a little sore today. I slipped and fell yesterday afternoon, after checking the mail. I got home, and emailed the town. I just got an email back saying that it was sanded the day before, but they send someone out to double check it. They were actually working on it as I was again checking the mail. Yay for communication!

Not too much going this afternoon/this weekend. I don’t think we’re going anywhere, so I don’t really plan on straying too far from the house.

In good news, the wind has died down, and it’s a lot warmer out there. That’s very nice. I don’t mind the cold too much, but the wind is another thing of its own.

Ok you’re all caught up. Let’s call it a day. Happy Friyay everyone!

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

Good morning friends. We’re almost at the end of the week. Only a couple of more days until the weekend.

We’re up and just ready to go here. Chaucer has already done his throw up his breakfast, and Pippin is just simply doing Pippin things. It’s cute, except for the throwing up bit. Thanks Chaucer.

This is probably gonna be a short post this morning as I do have a bit of a time crunch to try and get everything accomplished before I go. I have found out, that I’m not too excited about the mid shifts. They’re ok, but it’s no first or closing shift. But I’ll make it through the day, and then get ready for the final push tomorrow.

I haven’t been scheduled for any weekend shifts all month. That’s great, and at this point I don’t want to rock the boat, and say anything. So shhh!

Ok I need coffee etc. happy Thursday y’all I hope it’ll be a good one for you!

It’s slowly starting to get warmer out, but this afternoon the wind is starting to pick up again. Thankfully, I’m out of work now. It was somewhat steady today with a couple of times that it was slightly busy.

I haven’t been sleeping well the last week or so. I’ll wake up in the middle of the night. I think I might have slept through the night last night. I can’t remember if I got up to use the bathroom or not. But I didn’t feel as out of it when I woke up this morning.

Nothing left to do for the day now. Just kicking back and relaxing until it’s dinner time. Crystal told me that we’ll be having grilled cheese and chips tonight. That’s gonna be a major yum in my books. I loves me some grilled cheese.

That’s about it. Different day, same thing. So yeah I’ll quit while I’m a head out, and enjoy the rest of the day. Happy Wednesday y’all.

Catch ya on the flip side!
