Eight maids a milking

Shawshank, December 8, 2023

Welp, it snowed in the night, just as forecasted. It’s still snowing out there. After a couple of hours of rain last night, it did what it was supposed to – turn to snow. We still have a couple of hours of snow to fall. It does look peaceful out there though.

Ugh, snow. Amirite?

Work last night was killer. After a couple of small rushes, it died out. From 8 to 9, I think we had one person come in. So, we finished doing what we’re supposed to have done, and it’s about 5 minutes after the lights went out, and the door was locked. A customer pulls up and just parks. Not making an effort to come in or anything. So we just ignore and finish what we were doing.

All three of us leave at the same time. That’s when she finally gets out of her vehicle. “Are you guys still open?” We kind of look back at the store – all the lights out, and the open sign not on.

“Sorry, we’re closed.” We say as we walk to our vehicles.

And that was the day. Pretty exciting, huh? Since I have to close tonight, we’re moving our date night to tomorrow night, after groceries.

But I’ll be having to shovel later, but for right now it’s coffee time. And Chaucer is already snuggled between us. Happy Friday everyone!

Good morning, it’s ya boy Shawshank. It’s kinda a gray day out there. I think it’s supposed to possibly rain and maybe thunder storm for a bit today. I don’t know, but it kinda looks like it out there. And it’s already rained. The lanai is a little damp out…

Well, I tumble outta bed and stumble to the kitchen pour myself a cup of ambition

Good morning everyone. This is the second day in a row that I’ve woken up and I’m starving. Which is funny because I ate literally minutes before going to sleep. I can hear wolves or coyotes howling. They just started. Strange little animals. Maybe they’re saying good morning. This is…
