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

Consider this the hint of the century

Another day, another post. Hello all. It’s bright and sunny, but the wind. The wind just cuts right through you. I had a pretty good sleep last night, I was up just a minute or two before the alarm went off. So I got up and started the day.

With the days started I drove to work. I don’t mind the morning shift. I’m pretty much used to getting up at 4:30. I really like getting out early. But come on – 4:30 am?! That’s just cruel and unusual, if you ask me.

There’s been dram at work lately. WishJensenAckles has been messing some stuff up, and all that. So BossLady brought him into the office a couple of days ago. It did not go well. So higher up got involved yesterday. I don’t know how much longer he’s going to be around. All I know is that again, I’ll be pushed into things that I don’t really want. But it is what it is.

Doesn’t matter, I’m home now. I have no clue what we’re going to have for dinner. I wouldn’t say no to just a plate of meat or something like that. We’ll figure it out. I’m just simply tired.

I don’t think I have too much else to say, so I’ll just slowly disappear into the shrubs.

Back tomorrow. Have a great Thursday!

Sup, bitches? Home again from work. It’s was a quiet day until about an hour and a half when the groceries arrived. So from then on, I was nice and busy. The day goes pretty quickly when you’re busy. Before it got busy, we pretty much just cleaned, organized, and took care of the customers that came in.

Opening procedures are getting easier. The hardest part of it, is my math skills. Apparently, I can’t even work a calculator properly some times! In my defence, I did have to re-roll two rolls of coin that fell apart as soon as I touched them. But after a quick recount, I was golden. 100% on the money, so to speak.

Story of my life, at work.

Other than that, nothing too much is going on. Oh! We popped over to the local second hand store, and Crystal found a suitable replacement for the teapot that I broke months ago. A nice vintage Corelle teapot. And it was a steal at $2 or $3 dollars. And it works as intended – we made our nightly hot cocoa in it.

BREAKING NEWS: Crystal just became the leader of the mage school in Winterhold. She’s the Archmage. And she’s all powerful, and fair to the citizens around her.

Well well, well. Good afternoon, bitches. It’s m, oh hod, it’s only Tuesday. But, at least it’s not Monday. I’m home from work, and from Shady Acres. I had to clean the pellet stove, and move yet another freakin table up from downstairs.

HOW MANY TABLES DOES MY MOTHER OWN?

Anyways, this morning, I watched our milk truck get pulled over from the highway patrol. It was a routine stop. After the truck driver told the cop that it was his last day, and he was retiring – the cop let him go.

Other than that, the day went a lot quicker today. It was busier which is nice. Busier makes the day go quicker. Of course it was busier, it’s the first day of the cold snap. Because, of course.

Crystal had texted this morning say that she took the wings out for dinner. Wooho! Wings for dinner!

Feel the magic, there’s something that drives me wild

Remember that meme that I posted a couple of days ago about second winter? It arrived last night. It snowed an inch or two last night, and it’s been slowly getting colder and colder. Tomorrow, the high will be 2°. Yay. Winter is coming.

We went to bed at 10 last night, because I had to get up early for work. I passed right now. Quickly. Then I was up at like 12:30, to pee. The next time I got up was 4:29. I stood over the bed and the alarm clock like a creeper, just wishing for the damn alarm to go off.

It did.

And there was much rejoicing.

Now I’m home, and we just transferred 4kg of frozen chicken breasts into smaller bags. Needless to say, we won’t need to get chicken for a while. Yay for food!
