When we’re together and even when we’re apart

Good morning everyone. Chore day is in effect here. Laundry is in the machine, and the ingredients for brunch are defrosting in the sink.

I slept like the dead last night, only waking briefly a couple of minutes before my alarm went off.

Not a lot of laundry today. I’ve been wicked lazy and not really caring what I’m wearing. I came to the realization this morning that I’ve been a disgusting little hamster.

That’s gonna change.

Tomorrow, hopefully, I’ll be heading into SlightlyBiggerTown for some groceries. I know, I know, I believe it’s only been a week since I was there, but I didn’t get a lot because I didn’t have a lot. I should be able to get a little more.

Ok let’s do some freakin cleaning.

Bougie like Natty in the styrofoam

Good morning, it’s Sunday and you know what that means: it’s chore day! That’ll get started in a couple hours or so.

It was warmish yesterday, then it slowly got colder as it rained – slowly changing over to snow. We didn’t get a lot but it’s a layer of ice, covered by snow.

But it’s nice and warm here at The Flat. And I have coffee. So let’s slowly wake up, and have some. I think it’s a pretty good way to start the day.

And I’m gonna give her all the love I can, yes I am

Good morning! It’s getting brighter, and warmer out. It’s supposed to be warmer here over the next week, and I am so excited about that. Nothings gonna melt, but warmer is a nice step forward.

The Chinese food last night was pretty good. All I ordered was some fried rice, and broccoli beef. Those plates are pretty much my favourite, and the easiest plates to make, so if you fuck those up, you’re gonna have a problem.

Not a problem on my end. I ate every little bit of it. One, because I was hungry. As it was about an hour and a half past my dinner time. And two, I had reached that perfect in the moment high and was in the perfect position to eat.

Other than washing my sheets, I did absolutely nothing. I mostly sat on the couch and watch I think 2 episodes of Campaign 2 of Critical Role.

I never thought that I would enjoy a bunch of nerdy ass voice actors playing D&D. It’s 100% engaging. Out of 143 episodes in Campaign 2, I’m currently 40 minutes into episode 19.

But today is chore day. Laundry is already in washer. Coffee, chores, and nerd stuff on tv. Later this afternoon, I’ll be heading up to dinner at Shady Acres.

Fun!

It’s so hard to keep this smile from my face. Losing control and running all over the place.

My first thought when my alarm went off this morning – why am I getting up, when my alarm isn’t even going off. Oh, there it is.

Yep, I thought I was being ripped from my bed alarmless. Why would I get out of bed to start the day without the alarm going off!?

So yeah, I had a bit of a giggle at that before I threw my legs over the side of the bed. I’m happy to hear that the coffee is just about done brewing as I go do my business in the bathroom.

It’s chore day today. I’ll start that in about an hour or so. I want to mop the floor today, so I’ll probably do that after brunch.

But right now, I’m listening to Keith Morrison and his glorious voice on Dateline on NBC News Now. So relaxing. Ha!

Happy Sunday everyone. Have fun!

Your mother warned you there’d be days like these

Good morning all you summer children. It’s dark and pretty warmish out there. And the weather has changed again. It’s supposed to be snowing all day. But that’s changed and only a 50% chance of snow tomorrow.

We’ll see. It’ll probably change in a few hours.

Worked yesterday. I did some inventory stuff when I first got in. Then I received some calls, with people saying that they’d come in. The person that I would’ve preferred to come in and spend money didn’t show up. The crazy person that bought product 2 years ago, came to pick it up.

But mostly it was dead. Other than the two that called, no one else did. And no one came in to the showroom.

After that, I went up to Shady Acres. Mom texted and asked if I’d get some gas for their snowblower. After that, I grabbed Crystal and we drove to SlightlyBiggerTown for grocery and weed shopping.

One the way back we stopped once for her to spin “in a desolate place”. She spun in the middle of the road, and looked amazing as she did that.

Made it home, and then snuggled on the couch and watched movies.

Today is dinner at Shady Acres. But up on deck, is chore day. I’ll be starting that soon.

Happy Sunday everyone!
