Hide your diamonds, hide your exes, I’m a little bit Alexis

Shawshank, February 17, 2024

Good morning my friends. Yep, I’m posting at a normal time. Not in the afternoon. It was really nice to sleep in this morning. At one point I was dozing, and my mind was saying, I don’t think we reset the alarm clock, didn’t we? Ha ha, I fooled my own brain. I had reset the alarm, and it was going to go off. I successfully ignored my brain. I simply went back to sleep, because I knew that even if the alarm didn’t go off, I’d still have time to get up and ready, as I don’t have to be in until 9:45.

At about 4:30 yesterday I get a text from my mom asking if I was working. I said that I wasn’t. She asked if I could help her in about a half hour to help my dad get in the truck so she could take him to the hospital. I get up there and my dad under his own power is making his way to the truck. I help him get in and settled and I head back to The Flat to pick up Crystal for dinner.

I got another text just after 8, from my mom. They made it back home with a handful of new prescriptions. Hopefully this will help, and I hope that they figure out what the hell is wrong with my dad soon. He’s missed a lot of work.

We came home and did evening things. Crystal took a bath and I played No Man’s Sky. I played that until she got out of the tub. We had hot chocolate, and watched Antiques Roadshow. We each had a piece of cake and went to bed. I don’t know about Crystal, but I think I was out pretty quickly.

And now here we are. Coffee beside me, and Chaucer in front of me, staring. He wants to get in my lap. In a few, I’ll hop up and get in the shower. Then get ready for work. It may be windy, but it doesn’t feel that cold out there.

Happy Saturday y’all!

And boy, let me tell you, she was the prettiest thing I’d ever seen in a pair of boots

It’s kind of sleeting out there. I could hear it against the window as I opened the back door to take this mornings picture. It doesn’t look nice out there. But then again I think the forecast was a little wrong. I don’t think we’re gonna get the 5-6 inches…

Note: I’m writing this on Wednesday, for posting on Thursday. So I’m going about my business, watching Orange is the New Black, and I go into the bathroom, and those lyrics pop into my head. And I stop dead in my tracks, and burst into tears. So I figure that…

But if you’d really grab me tight – all the way home I’d be warm

December 23, 2020

So we had our first major snowstorm here. I couldn’t tell if it was snowing hard, or if it was the 30kmh winds. I think it was the winds because where i had just shovelled it had drifted. I think it snowed maybe 6-7 inches. Total. My dad says there’s…
