Everything is bleak it’s the middle of the night

You see that picture? That’s karma. That’s a new employee. 2nd day. Idiot. I’m not fond of them. But that’s besides the point. Earlier, before this, they told me that there’s a customer outside that needs help. Mind you it’s snowing, and a little windy. I’ve been outside on and off for about 7 hours at this point, and they’ve helped one customer.

“Shawshank, there’s a customer outside, they need some help.”

Ok, what’s the problem? Go out and help them.”

“But I’m cooold.”

I went out and help the customer, came back in, and told BossLady. She’s not impressed.

So later on, I’m outside again (because I said that I’d stay an extra two hours to cover a call out – due to the shitty weather, helping a customer, the co-worker gets in her car, cranks some sort of rap or something, and the next thing I see is their car in the ditch.

Just deserts 🙂

Then shortly before it’s time to go, I’m outside helping a customer again, I see my mom drive by. I wave, she honks the horn. I think nothing of it. I’m driving home, and I see a bright blue tractor pulling out a silver truck that looks like my mom’s. I drive to a place that I can pull over and wait. Then I think that that couldn’t be my mom’s truck. So I drive past Shady Acres, and she’s not home yet. Oh shit.

I drive out back onto the highway, where she passes me. I turn around and follow her back to Shady Acres to see if she’s ok. I carry her groceries in. And thankfully, she’s ok and the truck is ok.

This snow can stop anytime. I have to shovel soon. But probably tomorrow. I worked a 10 hour shift today. I’m tired.

Six o’clock on Friday evening momma doesn’t know she’s leaving

Ugh, back to work today. 4:30 came very early, but you know what came even earlier? Motherfucking 4:25. Yep, I stared at the clock until the alarm went off, and then my day started.

Make coffee.

Get dressed.

Feed the cats.

Open curtains.

Thankfully, it didn’t snow last night. We are however, awaiting the next snow fall. It should happen sometime tomorrow. It’s only a couple of inches. So that shouldn’t be too had. I mean, we survived 16” inches.

Mostly survived.

The parking lot isn’t cleaned yet. So I have to park on the road like some kind of homeless person.

Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking ’bout tomorrow

Small changes in the plans this morning. BossLady had texted me I think shortly after dinner last night m asking if I was ready for work. Short story, long, we decided to play it by ear, and possibly open late, which is why this is getting posted close to my normal posting time, and not in the afternoon.

All roads in and out of TinyTown are still closed. Like in all those horror movies, we’re all alone. No way in or out. Isn’t this the start of either a vampire movie, or zombie? Hopefully that’s not the case.

It wasn’t too bad of a day. I took care of the chores almost in one fell swoop. Which is always possible, but for some reason, I like to stretch them out. After the chores, it was brunch time. As always, it went off without a hitch, and was very good.

From there, I got dressed and walked over to my parent’s place to begin the dig out. It did take too long to shovel their driveway from door to truck. Walked back home.

Then the winds started. There a lot of drifts around the Hot Mess Express. So I’ll have to dig out before work. If we work today that is.

I needs coffee. Happy Monday, bitches.
