Seven swans a swimming

Shawshank, December 7, 2023

Oh, it’s morning again. That sleep went very quickly. I was up I think, around 5. Just to go to the bathroom, then I was back snuggled in the warm bed. It felt like only a couple of minutes before the alarm went off.

It’s not too bad, but a week of closing shifts is hard. Getting home between 9:15-9:30. Tonight will probably be closer to the 9:30 mark. But we’re getting closer to the weekend. This’ll be the last full weekend off, probably for a while. I almost have my big boy pants. I can mostly work unsupervised on the register.

We’re supposed to have some weather tonight, going into tomorrow. Rain tonight, then it turns into snow whilst everyone sleeps. I’ll believe it when I see it. So just a little rain before it quickly changes to snow tonight – then lots of snow tomorrow morning. Yay snow, said no one ever.

The people I work with are pretty cool. They’re very nice, and have infinite patience with me. I ask stupid questions, but they just smile and answer the questions.

But, I have two more days of closing. Then the weekend off, and I close again on Monday. Then it’s a couple of opening shifts, and a closing shift. Then my first Saturday shift. It shouldn’t be too bad. I have 90% of the basics down. It’s just remembering how to do all the functions.

It’s not rocket surgery!

Saturday. I’m up and dressed to go to work. Coffee is brewing, and I have a slight headache, but that’s just because I’m totally stuffed up. I hate the winter, but it’s the best for me, because no allergies. Chore day has to get bumped to Monday, as I’m heading…

They danced through the day and into the night through the snow that swept through the hall

The morning came very very early this morning. At one point I thought I heard Chaucer getting sick. I yelled out, and immediately fell back to sleep. I’m a terrible kitty dad. I think I got up in the night to go to the bathroom, but I’m not too sure….

Good Tuesday morning, my friends. It’s bright and sunny outside, and the birds are singing. The household is awake and ready to start the day. The coffee has been brewed, and is already being consumed. Yep, it’s Tuesday. Another closing shift. Today will be a little different. I close tonight,…
