Six o’clock already, I was just in the middle of a dream

Just another manic Monday.

Good morning everyone. Pippin has a new superpower, she can leave the bed mere minutes before the alarm goes off. As soon as I leave the bedroom, she starts meowing for me to open the back door so she can look out.

So I tried to go grocery shopping yesterday. It was a Sunday, and I never really shop on a Sunday. I figured out why – the grocery store doesn’t open until 12. I got there shortly after 10am. I wasn’t going to wait for 2 hours, so I turned around and when back to the flat. I’ll shop next weekend or something. I haven’t decided yet.

But it’s the start of a new week. I have a pot of coffee, and some news on to start the day. Crystal has hit the Felicia Day section of Supernatural. So I googled how long she’s on the show. Outlook: not good.

Me on the other hand, is still trying to get through Campaign 2 of Critical Role. I’m on episode 126/141. I’m getting closer and closer to the end. I’m really enjoying the campaign.

But yeah, welcome to Monday. Let’s see how good it’s going to be!

Breathe me in, breathe me out
I don’t know if I could ever go without

Good morning my friends. It’s a bright and sunny day here, with a high of 84. Which means right now, it’s a nice and comfy temp outside. It’ll start getting warmer here pretty quick.

Yesterday, I was in a parade. In fact I was number 6 in line of the parade. It was fun. I was tossing candy, and waving to people. I even saw my mom and gramma out close to their house, I honked the horn, waved, and threw some candy to them. That made my day there.

After the parade, I had a couple of hours of work, which no one came in, because of the town festival that was happening close by. So I played some solitaire, and then I was off.

I walked over to the grounds and paid the entry fee. I was looking for lunch, which I found pretty quickly. A couple of hotdog, and Olten over to another booth for some fresh cut French fries.

I then went over to the petting zoo, where I pet all the animals except for the pot bellied pigs which were just to quick to be able to pet. I did find out that the pigs were for sale.

After that, I listened to some of the live polka, and did another round, just in case I missed something. Then made the walk back to the flat.

I had fun!

She told me to come, but I was already there

Good morning party people! We made it! Saturday! As I write this, it’s bright and sunny and a perfect day for a parade.

I gotta make the work truck somewhat presentable for the parade. The decorations are a little sparse but that’s ok. It’ll be a good parade.

But first lots of coffee and practicing my wave.

Let’s get the day started!

I be dirty dancing, now they yelling, “Gravy Swayze!”

It’s Friyay! It’s Friyay! The weekend is in our grasp! It’s a bright and sunny day here, it looks like it’ll be a pretty nice day here.

Last night, I just passed right out. I think I got up once in the night, and then passed right out again. I was pretty much comfortable all night. I don’t think I moved position all night. My shoulder is a little stiff, but that’ll work itself out as I move around.

I have to look at the ‘decorations” for the work truck today, and to see how sad they are. I’m in the town-wide parade tomorrow, and the BossLady wants the truck to be decorated.

But before all that – coffee. Lots of coffee.

Happy Friyay!!

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.
