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!

Girl when I break you off – I promise you won’t want to get off

November 28, 2020

So work was good yesterday. I managed to put out some fires, and sell a few things. Big ticket items. I felt really good when I left the shop. The commute home was pretty easy. Five minutes on foot and I was home. What I didn’t know is that my dad had been home since…

When your day is long
And the night, the night is yours alone

May 25, 2021

Awake. From the looks of my bed, I was a tossy turny boy last night. I mean it was a good sleep, I think, but still. Only up a couple of times in the night. Yesterday was pretty uneventful. In the Morning I went over to Shady Acres to do a load of laundry, and…

Dancin’ dress that had a split on the side clean up to my hip

March 22, 2023

It’s the 22nd of March, and it’s snowing out there. I’m really getting tired of the snow. I just want it to be warm out there. I’m tired of dressing in layers. I’m tired of hearing the crunch of the snow under my feet. Yesterday evening wasn’t the nicest. I got sick. I went to…
