They cut off my legs, now I’m an amputee, God damn you

Well, we’re into the meat of the weekend. It’s been a busy one so far. So I worked yesterday 10-3. I asked BossLady on Friday evening, hey we’re working 10-3 tomorrow, right? She answered in the affirmative. So that’s what I planned for. Work til 3, and the head over to SlightlyBiggerTown for some groceries, and weed. Then, it was off to the restaurant for a late date night.

That breakfast platter was just what I ordered. Literally.

I have a Chaucer on my lap. He’s been waiting for this all morning, I’m sure. I slept pretty good last night. I didn’t wake up in the middle of the night, I got up about 10 minutes before the alarm went off, and I got to have an up close Pippin snuggles, right under my chin.

I wouldn’t say it was tense at work, there’s just a different dynamic in the store. You see, I gave my two weeks notice on Friday morning.

It did not go well.

Today is the last totally packed day. Chores in a few hours, and over to Shady Acres for dinner. Other than that, no plans for today. I have a couple of tasks on Monday, but that’ll take minutes.

Coffee is ready. If you want some, come on over. There’s more than enough. Happy Sunday!

Good Saturday morning my friends. It’s a dark start to the day, but here we are. It doesn’t feel that cold out, which is a good thing. It’s gonna be a busy day today. After work, we’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown to do some grocery shopping and a couple of other things. Since I had a work event last night, we’ll be having our date night tonight.

I’m thinking breakfast for dinner.

We’ll see.

But I’m thinking, yes breakfast.

Other than heading into town, we don’t have anything planned which is nice. I don’t plan on doing a whole lot of anything this weekend. Looking a head, I shouldn’t have too many plans for next weekend as well. It’s remembrance day next weekend.

Not too much to report from the last week. Just busy with the sale, and trying to get as much stuff in front of peoples face as possible. The sale is going pretty good.

Man, this coffee tastes good today. I think I made a damn fine cup of coffee. So I apologize that the post is short. I’ll make it up to y’all later, I promise.

But first coffee. And the thought of bacon later on.

You want a piece of my heart

Greetings from the day before the weekend. Is it still a Friyay if you’re working on Saturday? Ahh, the age old question. It’s a somewhat dark morning, but it doesn’t feel too bad out there.

It’s another late night tonight. It’s the second of three ladies night at work. Not a big of a crowd but still in the double digits. Hope like the last, these ladies will buy some furniture and furniture accessories.

My back is still angry with me, and my face is a little puffy. My left eye is looking rather nasty. I’m keeping an eye on it, and really trying to remember the feelings that I had when I had shingles last year. I really hope that it’s not shingles but maybe just something that’s not shingles.

I was tossy turny for most of the morning. I know I got up around three to use the bathroom. Then just mostly awake from about 6:30 on. I was expecting the alarm, but it still scared me.

But the faster the day starts, the faster it’ll be over, right? Right? Happy Friyay my friends, let’s raise our coffee cups for a Friyay salute.

You’re never gonna fit in much, kid

Yep, it’s the morning. I was up shortly after we went to bed. I had to go to the bathroom. So I went. I’m so very sore this morning. After the trip to the bathroom I think I just tossed and turned and lightly slept for the rest of the night.

The ladies night went off without a hitch last night. We had a big group, and it was a fun evening. Good presentation from BossLady. And good deserts from our friend down the street. I was running back and forth between the store and the warehouse.

But it’s the morning, and I’m slowly waking up here. Eye is still swollen, but if it acts like it did yesterday, the swelling will go down through out the day.

I need coffee. Mainlined today. It’s gonna be a long day methinks.

Oh yeah, coffee.

Good morning my friends. I slept mostly through the night. I was up briefly around 6 am, and dozed until the alarm went off. I feel like I got in a fight last night. Sure enough, my left eye is a little swollen. Weird, huh?

Yesterday was too bad. Just hectic. BossLady can’t just tell you what she wants. There’s a whole process of her thought patterns. And it usually requires you watching her write down stuff. The stuff I need explained like I’m five, is usually glossed over, and the stuff that’s easy gets the through explanation.

The coffee has been brewed, and is currently being consumed. It’s a late night at work tonight. It should be a fun time. It’s a design night. BossLady likes them because she’s the centre of attention, and she does what she does best – talk about herself.

Oh and I get free desert, and drinky-poos. I believe she bought 2 cases of champagne. For the three nights that she’s having these design nights. This is the first night with over twenty people coming. The next two nights are a lot lighter on guests. S’ok, we’ll deal with it.

I need more coffee. Happy Wednesday.
