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

Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy

I’m awake.

The snow is still there.

And, we’re expecting more.

Happy Friyay everyone! But with this week’s schedule, it doesn’t matter, as I’m working all weekend. And its supposed to snow all weekend. Less than a foot, I believe. But yeah snow

Chaucer just climbed on to my lap. He’s always nice and warm on my lap. So I have 1 kitten, and half a cup of coffee right now with, Crystal sitting beside me, what more could I want? Nothing. I’m pretty happy at this moment.

So yeah, it’s Friyay. Let’s make it the best Friyay possible.

Here I am, I didn’t forget about you, dear readers. I had to be up at the ass-crack of dawn. Before dawn. I was at work when dawn began to break.

It was a rare 5:30-1:30 shift for yours truly. Thankfully I didn’t have to be outside for long, because our part timer who only goes to do gas had to be out in the cold.

I took a chance and wore my steel toed Docs to work. I was worried that my feet would be killing me after 8 hours, but my feet feel fine after.

We’re expecting more snow this weekend. It’s my first week of being the “night manager”, so I was asking BossLady all sorts of questions regarding the snow. It’s business as usual. That’s all I needed to know.

But none of that matters right now. It’s for future Shawshank. Right now I have Chaucer on my lap, and I’m home relaxing. Seems like a good Thursday to me.

I don’t have a plan I’m tryna compliment you

Good morning, from a snowy, very windy , TinyTown. Wow that was a lot of commas. I probably didn’t use them right. I don’t think I ever use them correctly.

The great one let me sleep in a little longer this morning, and for that I thank her. I shall feed her a great meal of tacos this evening.

But yea it had snowed on Saturday, and it continued yesterday with a couple of inches. I think it snowed a little over night. Then the wind picked up. Looking at the weather app, it seems we’ll be getting more snow this weekend.

But right now, it’s warm in here and the cats are acting weird. Chaucer just plopped down on my lap. I have the beautiful one next to me. All is right in my world right now.

Except my cup is almost empty.

It’s Wednesday, have a good one, my dudes.

Yep, it’s snowing.

I was up at 4:30 this morning. BossLady asked me to be on call in case she wasn’t able to get out of her property. I texted her shortly after I woke up saying that there was no snow in town. She thanked me and told me to back to sleep.

Let’s just say I went back to bed. I tossed and turned and fell asleep just very lightly between 5:30 and 6 when the alarm went off. I think I got maybe a total of 4 hours of sleep.

I’m gonna try and make it to bed time.

Fingers crossed.

So I get into work at 8 and make myself a coffee. It’s slow at work. I’m really not used to working during the day. I mused that I miss the night shift.

But the came to an end the second shift arrived and I stayed until 3:30. There wasn’t enough for three people to do so I left. I’m on the couch now, with a very happy Chaucer curled up on my lap.

Crystal is playing her game. It’s a fun game I really just can get used to the screen angle, and I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have the attention span for the 30 minute+ fights as well.

Poutine for dinner tonight. Yum!
