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

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 nice. We’ve gotten to that pesky part of the year where it’s too warm to get under all the blankets, but you’d be a lot more comfy if you could.

I managed to survive the hurricane that is my boss. We loaded her Subaru, and then she got down to what she wanted to get done. She mentioned she wanted to leave by 3. We were close – she left about 3:30. She’s gone for the rest of the week, but I know she’ll be calling in to check up, and to give me tasks to do.

Oh, did I mention, I’m in a parade this weekend? I’m in a parade this weekend. I’ll be heading in Saturday a little early to take the truck to wash it, and then, Ugh, decorate it.

But first, coffee.

Then all of your friends, they’d try to kill us but only because they’d be jealous that our love is deeper than Edward and Bella’s

Back to work today.

Woke up a little early, but I managed to fall back asleep for 40 minutes. My eye is a little swollen this morning, but if it’s like yesterday, the swelling should go down through out the day.

Anyways, I think I’m on the road to recovery. According to Dr. Internet, it’ll be a couple of weeks before shingles runs it’s course. Course, I’m already tired of it.

I’m ready for it to go.

I have coffee, and have already taken an Advil to help with the swelling. It’ll get better.

But anyways, it’s Wednesday and that’s the middle of the week, so the week is half over. We can make it! Let’s kick it!

Someday the mountain might get ’em but the law never will

Good morning party people. Who has two thumbs and slept like a baby last night? Me, motherfuckers, I actually slept 99.9% of the night. What’s the take away of that? Sleep is good for shingles.

My eye opened yesterday, but it felt like I was using 100% effort to keep it open, and it was so light sensitive, I just kept it closed all day. Yesterday, I felt better than the day before, but just literally drained. This morning, I woke up feeling pretty good.

After talking with my boss, she encouraged me to take one more day, and come back as close to 100% as possible tomorrow. So that’s the plan. Gonna cold compress the shit out of my face today.

So that’s my story, what’s yours today?

They’ll stone you when you’re at the breakfast table

I’m told it’s morning. I slept like shut last night. My eye is swollen shut. Pain. Lots of pain.

But it’s Monday, and since I didn’t get to do anything yesterday, I’ll be doing the chores today. Laundry and the bathroom.

I’m moving really slow this morning. I was cold when I woke up, now I’m really warm.

I would just like the pain to stop.

Hope y’all have a better Monday than me.

Insert witty song title here

So I’m trying talk to text. It’s so much easier than trying to type everything out. Yesterday, after work I had my mom take me to SlightlyBiggerTown, to the hospital. That’s where they confirmed that I have shingles. So I got a couple of prescriptions and now I have to go up to CaptialCity to talk to an eye doctor.

I could barely keep my eyes open so at 6 PM I went to sleep I slept for 12 hours. I think around 2 AM that’s when the thunder and lightning storms happened. That’s when Pippin came to snuggle too.

I have to be in CapitalCity for 11:30. My dad is picking me up for 8 am. Which is why I’m up early.

No chores today. Maybe, but I doubt it.

Happy Sunday y’all.
