Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell

Shawshank, May 7, 2023

Good Sunday morning everyone. We’re in the thick of the weekend now. It’s a little gray out there with a slight breeze. But it’s not snowing, so there’s that.

We were up wicked early yesterday to watch the Kings coronation, so around 10:30 last night we went to bed. Once I was comfortable, I was out. I crashed like Paul Walker*

Work yesterday was ok. There were a few people that popped in just “to snoop around”. I figured it out yesterday – there’s not a lot to do in these small towns, so in an effort to get out and to do something, people will drive from small town to small town to see what’s there. I totally believe that bored people would actually go to car dealerships you know, for fun.

After work, I picked up Crystal and we took off to the closest car dealership greenhouse. It’s not too far, pretty close to the only gas station on the outskirts of town. We wandered around looking at all the pretty plants.

We ended up getting some Brussels sprouts, morning glory, heartbreaker, and midnight sky. I can’t wait to see what they look like when they’re all flowering and looking good. And most importantly, we’ll hopefully have some yummy sprouts in a month or two. Bonus!

Today is chore day, I’ll be starting that in an hour or so. I need coffee first to power Big Chore. I contacted my landlady yesterday, and told her about the screen door. She gave me the contact info for the handyman, I copied and pasted the same text message to him, and he stopped by and took a look. He should be stopping by tomorrow to see if he can fix it. Thankfully, we’re not the only people that have a bum screen door.

Alright, I’ve typed too much! It’s like a book up in here! Happy Sunday y’all! Have some coffee!

*too soon?

Baby, it’s cold outside

January 18, 2025

Sweet baby Jeebus, it’s wicked cold out there with the windchill, it’s about -35°f. I got up very very early in the morning, about 10 minutes before the alarm went off. But after picking up my coworker, we made it into work, and opened the store. Nothing special there. We sat for about an hour…

And the dummies might be right outside the darkness lurks

September 25, 2024

Three more shifts until the weekend. Three more shifts until the weekend. It’s been a long week so far. And the sleeps haven’t been top notch. The last couple of nights, I’d gently place my head on the pillow, and the next thing I know, Crystal is telling me that it’s time to get up.…

Gravy coming hot like I’m hoppin’ off the griddle

August 18, 2022

Good morning all you party people! We’re slowly inching closer and closer to the weekend. Can we make it? Yes we can! Yes, that’s right, it’s Thursday. The red headed stepchild of the week. It should technically be the weekend, but it’s not. But we’re close. I slept like the dead last night. It was…
