Later we’ll have some pumpkin pie and we’ll do some caroling

Shawshank, December 16, 2023

*yawn* here we are again. Early freakin morning, on a Saturday. I’ll be working in a few hours. I think it took a minute for me to fall asleep, but when I did, I only woke up one or two times. The first time was either 12:22, or 2:22. I was warm. Glistening, in fact. I slid both my legs out from under the cover embraced the cold for a second or two, and fell back asleep, feeling cooler. The second time was even shorter. I think it was either 5, or 6 am. Again, just for a second, before I fell back asleep until the alarm went off.

The coffee has been brewed, and we’re enjoying the first couple of sips, as we both start to write our daily posts. Crystal gave the cats some catnip this morning, and they have both partaken of it. Partook? I’m not an English major to figure that out. It’s still early, maybe I’ll figure it out sometime today.

Yep I have to work today. My first weekend shift. If yesterday is an indicator, it should be pretty busy today. For about an hour and a half to two hours last night. For me it was busy. Car after car, and a steady stream of customers coming in. We got through it, and after the “rush” it became manageable when the swing shift left, leaving me and the closing (for lack of a better word) manager. Closing didn’t have any problems, and we got out of there right when we were supposed to. I don’t think that I forgot to do anything, and the shop looked pretty good when we left.

And now, here we are. Chaucer is gonna be annoyed after I hit publish, as I’ll be having to get up to go to the bathroom. But that’s ok, he’ll get over it. Let’s go Saturday! Hopefully the shift will go without a hitch, and time flies. But first, let’s have some coffee!

Late breaking story on the CBC

As Crystal put it in a text message to her mother: IT WAS ALL MELTED. SPRING WAS HERE. Ahh yes, but welcome to second winter. Although if you were counting, this is technically, like fourth winter. But yep, it’s snowing. And should pretty much be snowing for the foreseeable future,…

So I’m not in the witness protection scheme? I woke up thinking that I was today when the alarm went off. I can’t even blame what I watched yesterday. And I watched a very eclectic set of shows yesterday. So, now I’m awake the coffee pot is on, and I…

March 26, 2023

I think we managed to sleep pretty much most of the night. Well, I did. Crystal said she didn’t wake up as early as she has been. That counts as a win. I’ll take it. Good morning Sunday! It’s kinda gray out there. But at least the wind isn’t blowing….
