Benz in the driveway, yacht in the water Vegas, at the Mandarin, high roller gamblin’

Shawshank, September 21, 2026

It’s bright and sunny now, but when I rolled out of bed, it was completely different. There was lots of fog, and it was chilly as I drove in this morning.

But long story short,(too late!)

Opened the store, helped customers, talked more than I’m used to, I did some cleaning, but was mostly just a cashier. I did manage to put in $50 worth of diesel in the big dog truck before the price went up. So that’s a good thing. I like the big truck for simply one thing: heated steering wheel!

Then I got a text from my mom saying that she had packed some boxes, if I could stop by after work, or if I wanted to pick her up around 3 or 4 and she’d help me. I went right over after work, because once I sit, I ain’t getting back up. So I got all the boxes and a couple of tables into the new Shady Acres, and turned the truck around, and went home – across the street.

Mid shift Tuesday and Wednesday. Least I don’t have to get up at 4:30. Six will be just fine.

Six o’clock already I was just in the middle of a dream

June 20, 2023

The alarm scared me this morning. We’re awake, and it’s a gray morning out there. It looks like it’s finally rained most of the night. Which is good, we needed the rain here in town. The grass around the area was starting to look pretty dead. Back to work today….

And he takes her by her slender waist

December 14, 2022

Awake! Well, I’ve been awake on and off since about 6am. I’d open my eyes, and see the time. Then a little later, I’d do the same thing. All the way up to when the alarm went off. That’s fun, right. Well, not really. But it is what it is….
