Yeah, it’s been a long night and the mirror’s tellin’ me to go home

Like I just told Crystal, I was up briefly at 6:10 this morning, looked at the time, and thought to myself – I still have time and rolled over. Then the alarm went off at 7am.

Coffee brewing.

It’s froggy and windy out. Hopefully the wind dies down before I have to go up on the roof at Shady Acres. I’ll be helping my dad prep the pellet stove for the winter after lunch today.

Yesterday I assumed that I’d be doing this in the morning, so I did all my chores after work. The laundry is done and all the other cleaning is as well. Toaster will vacuum while I’m out for dinner at Shady Acres.

Welp, the coffee is ready, so I’m going to go and consume some. Have a great Sunday, watch out for hurricanes!

This is how I roll, animal print, pants out control

First things first. The featured image – people make fun of things when they don’t understand them. The colours in that movie were a thing. It may not be a great movie, but it’s up there. Don’t mess with Twilight OG.

They have a posse.

I think.

Saturday, the day of Sats. The only thing between me and the weekend is a couple of hours at work. Yesterday at this time, it was forecasted to be raining – but the giant glowy thing in the sky has determined that was a lie.

But I’m up and dressed and waiting for the coffee to brew. So you have a good day, and if you have a cat. 4 hurricane barreling down on you, make sure you’re safe.

Happy Saturday y’all!

Tight jeans, tattoo, ’cause I’m rock and roll

Oh, something I for got to me ruin yesterday. Someone dropped off mystery plants. And mystery person too. Wednesday at lunch I come home – as one does at lunch – to find plants sitting on my little outdoor table.

Strange…

But they are inside plant chatting with the others. Happy as little clams. I think. I don’t speak plant to truly know.

Like I was telling Crystal, I think the days of shorts and flip flops are all done. Last night I moved the living room back to how it was, and some fans have been put away. I’m pretty sure summer is over, no matter what the calendar says.

Speaking wrecking balls, BossLady is back today. I’m sure she’s going to just come in like a whirling dervish.

But what’s important right now, the coffee is ready. So I’m gonna make myself a cup. Happy Friyay!

Oh! Before I go, I git a milestone on Duolingo – 20,000 xp! Woot!

And think of all the stories that we could have told

Welcome to the red headed step child of the week – Thursday. I think I had a good sleep last night. I think I only got up once, that’s awesome. I’m usually up 2 or 3 times.

Anyways, it’s sunny and windy out there. I think the days of shorts and t-shirts are done for this year. It’s not fall yet, but it sure feels like it out there.

Coffee is brewing, and for some strange reason, I’m very hungry. The coffee will help, and I’ll have cereal right before I head off to work.

Ok, coffee is ready – I’m outie9000. Have a great day! I love you.

Book Club: The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

Posted on by Shawshank

Ok book nerds, I’m really trying to get back into the swing of things and actually try to bring back the Lockup Library Book Club.

So for the balance of this month, and probably next month, the book is going to be The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton.

I just started to read it yesterday afternoon, and I’m totally hooked. I can’t wait to have a chance to sit down and read some more!

Until next time, book nerds!
