If I had a dime every time that you crossed my mind well I’d basically be sitting on a big ass pile of dimes Shawshank, July 12, 2026 It’s morning, and it’s warm. It’s been warm since yesterday morning. We just have to make it through today. But I wanted this heat. I welcome this heat. Work wasn’t too bad yesterday. Slow. But it was still a good day. Bing Bing switched shifts with an employee I don’t have a nickname for her, as this is the second time it worked with her. But like I said it was a slow shift. I think most people were hiding inside, or at the lake. I know one of my customers put in a lake at a dug out(?), and said he was going to go for a swim with his goat. Aren’t small rural towns the best? So there wasn’t really a rush yesterday. Just random people coming in for the most random (for a small town gas station) things. One person came in. If he’s not getting gas, he gets one drink, wishes us an excellent day and leaves. Yesterday, it was neither, but a box of bandaids. That small picture above? Oh that’s our drink cooler. It usually sits at 35°. Yesterday, it didn’t go lower than 47°. I had hoped that it would cool back down, so at one point no one had been into the store or opened any of the cooler doors for a half hour. The temperature, didn’t go down. I texted BossLady around 8 or so to tell her. But it was a Saturday. So she was probably busy. Today will be a somewhat busy day. Since golden boy at work only works opening shifts, he gets all the opening Saturday shifts, which messes with me timemaxxing. So today, we’ll head into SlightlyBiggerTown for some much needed supplies – including laundry soap, and we’ll do the rounds there, and come home, where I’ll start laundry. But first, coffee. It’s Sunday, and the first of three have died down in the states. Let’s hope it’s a busy day down south as well. Life blogbloggerchore daycoffeejournalmorningspersonal blogTinyTown
Life Ain’t got antlers on the walls, but I sure know mating calls November 4, 2024 Good morning, welcome to another Monday morning. It’s gray, and slightly chilly out there. I think it’s the new norm if you ask me. I’m nit impressed, but it is fall. And it’s been a really nice fall so far. The weekend, of course, flew by. But it always does…. Read More
Life Through the years, the sorrow the joy that we borrow November 30, 2021 Good morning y’all. It’s Tuesday, and it’s dark out. Not too chilly, but according to my weather app last night, it’s supposed to snow today – less than half an inch. The coffee is brewing. I slept like a rock last night. I think I fell asleep tense, as again,… Read More
Life Then I fumbled through my closet, for my clothes and found my cleanest dirty shirt September 14, 2025 That was the weirdest sleep I’ve had in a while. I crashed hard last night, and went to bed, leaving The Beautiful One to close up the Flat last night. I barely got the coffee ready, before stumbling to the bedroom and getting out of my clothes. I was just… Read More
