Was the Night before Christmas – 40 below when Snoopy went up in search of his foe

Good morning everyone. It’s Monday, need I say anything more? I had a pretty sucktastic sleep last night. The Melatonin, it did nothing. Nothing at all.

But it’s ok. Least I don’t have to be at work today. Today, I’m going to SlightlyBiggerTown to buy more sleep aids. By sleep aids, I mean legal weed.

Coffees ready. Be right back.

We got an offer on the house. My first thought it we should take it, because I don’t know if we’d get another offer. I’m trying to stay positive. I just want the house sold so it’s gone.

It’s going to be a long day here. It’s hard when you wake up exhausted.

Happy Monday my friends. Let’s make it the best Monday that it can be. I love you.

Good morning party people. It’s Sunday, and it’s dark out. Last night, after a very disappointing Christmas episode on SNL, I just zonked out. Out like a light. I was a little tossy turny. At about 6, I was woke up by a sound that really sounded like I had just knocked my bowl off the side of my bed.

I didn’t knock the bowl off the side of my bed.

I thought nothing of it, and went back to sleep until my alarm scared the crap out of me, and it was time to start my day. I got up, and got dressed. I leave my room, and go across the hall to pee and brush my teeth. I’m doing the ol thousand yard stare through the shower, and my eyes catch what made the sound about an hour and a half earlier.

I stared at it in disbelief, as I completed my business. Then I got up, and got most of the litter back into the box. Those cats must have had a wild night. I can only think that one of them was in the box, doing what cats do, only to be ambushed as they were leaving. Ensuing chaos, as she exited, in hopes to defend herself.

So yeah, it’s been a crazy morning here at Shady Acres. But I have my coffee, and apparently, I have a new tradition; I have a Christmas movie on. I guess in this one, that one chick from lost that Crystal hates, is looking for love. Let’s see how this one pans out.

There’s a few things I have to get done today. I have to clean the stove, I need to read for at least an hour. There’s book club, and I have to get 2 or 3 more posts in the queue. It’ll be a busyish day. Or at least the afternoon

So tell me, does the road to the Superb Owl still go through Foxboro? Haha. Happy Sunday everyone!

Through the years we all will be together – if the fates allow

Good morning, happy Saturday. I’m up and dressed. Just waiting for my coffee. It was an ok sleep, I transitioned to a light sleep probably an hour before the alarm went off.

It’s an early day today; the shop is only open until 2. Then my weekend can start! If all goes as planned, I’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown Monday, to finish Christmas shopping. Only a few more to go.

I honestly can’t think of anything else right now. I’m not fully awake to expound on different things. So, I don’t think you’re missing too much anyways. I hope y’all enjoy your Saturday.

The sun will shine by day – and all the stars at night

Friyay! I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. My alarm went off, and I laid back down, and felt my eyes close. That’s when, just before falling back asleep, I forced myself to sit up and roll out of bed.

I got up. As I was getting dressed, I couldn’t remember if I got up in the night. I don’t think so, but anything is possible I guess.

2 more days of work. Today the boss won’t be there so it’ll be a little more relaxed. Tomorrow, I work alone. I mentioned that to the boss. I said, “every Saturday that I work, I’m alone, yet every other Saturday, there’s two people on. What’s up with that?” The response is “you’ll be fine.” I know I’ll be fine, I’ll be awesome, that’s beside the point!

Mmm, coffee.

Monday, I’ll be heading into SlightlyBiggerTown. I have to finish my Christmas shopping. I got to get something for mom and gramma. Should be a fun day.

But for now my friends, have a safe Friday.

There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel – one in the park as well

Well, back home snowmageddon has happened, and Crystal is out shovelling the snow off the deck, and clearing a path to the back door. Also she’s cleaning the truck off. All before makeup. She’s just simply amazing. And badass. She’s an amazing badass.

Me? I slept like a rock. I had some dreams of Crystal and her poi, wake up to find she uploaded a video of her poiing outside after I left. Let’s see if my in dream outfit matches what she really wore. The two outfits did not match. The real outfit was way more weather appropriate.

That’s all I really have. I’m not quite awake yet. Thankfully, I got the title to the post last night so I had it googled yesterday before bed. And just think, it’s the day before the night before Saturday. It’s like, almost the weekend. After lunch you can call today Pre-Friday!
