What do tigers dream of when they take a little tiger snooze

Good morning, happy Monday y’all! We made it! Another glorious work week is now in front of us!

It’ll be a somewhat slow morning. I do have an appointment to set up a bank account here at the local credit union, so I can get paid at work, because they only do direct deposit.

Then after lunch it’ll be time to go to SlightlyBiggerTown to do some grocery shopping. I should be able to stop by the second hand store to see if they have any good books.

But for now, it’s the local (TotallyBiggerCity – 2 hours away) networks morning show.

Again friends, happy Monday. May your week move quick, and your inventory quicker. I luff ewe.

Well I went today – maybe I’ll go again tomorrow

It looks like is going to be a gray day out there. That’s ok, because I don’t plan on going outside today.

Good morning, happy Sunday! Hope everyone is enjoying the day so far.

I was a busy little beaver yesterday. I helped my dad take down a wall in the basement, and a half wall in the kitchen. It looks pretty good, and the air movement from the pellet stove in the basement is a lot better now.

I also did a lot of book blog work here on the site. I may do some more today. We’ll see how much effort I want to put in to it today! I do know there will be a book club today.

And, I managed to get some reading in yesterday as well! Like I said, I was a busy beaver yesterday.

I like big books, and I cannot lie.

I hope everyone has a great day!

And then we’re gonna find out best friend Doug

I decided last night that I wasn’t going to change my alarm. It went off this morning, and all I could think of is why didn’t I change my alarm. But I’m up, and coffee is brewing.

Sleep came pretty quickly, and stayed with me for the night. That was a nice surprise to sleep the entire night.

I’ll be helping my dad with some wall removal. But who knows when that’ll happen. I’m sure instead of waking up at a normal time, and spending most of the day doing it. He’ll stretch it over two days. Because he’s like a ferret and if left to his own devices, he’ll sleep for 18 hours.

I am however, very excited to introduce some wicked professional graphics to the site. You’ll see one later today, and of course for book club tomorrow. They’ll make the site look like the bees knees, and bonafide. I can’t wait for you to see them. Crystal does amazing work.

So give them blood, blood – gallons of the stuff

Good morning, happy Friyay! Today is my first full day at work. I have to find out if I’m working tomorrow. That’ll be interesting. All by myself, 4 hours a day and a half training. I’m gonna talk with the other newbie, but a newbie that’s been there a week or two longer than me, and say you take this Saturday, and I’ll do next after I get some more real life experience.

The sleep was ok. Definitely better than the night before. But not the best. It still took a while to fall asleep. Some strange dreams – army mess hall, and unable to control my bladder. Strange!

But first, my coffee should be ready to consume. Mmm! Coffee!

I’m just looking forward to coming home, and chatting with Crystal! I am happy I got a job. I just gotta get used to getting up, and moving with a purpose again. Happy Friyay, friends!

Oh, before I forget, I’m planning on moving the Lockup Library Book Club to Sunday afternoon. That way it doesn’t interfere with my on/off work schedule.

They could care less – as long as someone will bleed

So my first night, my trail by fire went really well. Thankfully it’s not an every day thing. I didn’t get home till shortly after 10. About an hour after I take my sleepy time medicine.

So needless to say I slept like shite. Tossing and turning. Bad dreams. up early in the morning to go to the bathroom. Too hot too cold. You know that usual. The dreams were weird. My nephew broke his bike and I was the only that wanted to fix it. I had to weld a part and by the time I got back his dad bought him a new bike. And they all laughed at me.

The other dream, I was with my mother in law, and Crystal and I were asking for money to get through the month, and she said no she couldn’t afford it, and then her other daughter called and said her car broke down, and my MIL said no problem, and bought her a new used minivan.

That’s when I walked home. Suddenly I wasn’t in RI, I was in TotallyBiggestTown, and I was trying to find my way home. I was all alone and totally lost.

Today, thankfully, I go in for only a few hours, then it’s home to look after my gramma as my mom has to get a tooth pulled. Tomorrow will be my first full shift. And even though I’m tired and have a headache, I’m kinda excited to go.
