It’s been crazy busy at work. I forgot it was a holiday weekend! Wondered why so many people were out and about shopping. It’s been very hot here and I look forward to next week when I get a couple of days off. Plan to spend them reading outside and swimming in the pool.

Have a wonderful Memorial Day!

Stay safe and take care everyone.

I managed to squeeze in that nap I wanted. And I also got a lot done this week. Cleaned house from top to bottom and did some much needed yard work. I also spent some time in the pool almost every day. Either before or after work. It really helped with my aches and pains from work. I feel so good!

Stay safe and take care everyone.

Some chit chat.

Things are changing a bit here with a soft reopening going on. They’ve opened the beaches and small businesses. There’s still restrictions on how many can gather or be admitted. I’m hoping people use common sense and keep taking precautions. Some places that opened back up had a spike in cases. They still check our temperatures at work and require us to stay six feet apart when possible and wear masks.

Stay safe and take care everyone.

My new books.

I’ve been tearing through the Murderbot Diaries books and had to pre-order the newest one. I don’t normally spend so much for an eBook but since I got the first four books free through TOR, I figured this was a way to pay them and the author back for such awesome generosity.

Some chit chat.

We had a bit of a scare this week. A storm blew through here and the winds were so strong I thought the house was going to take flight. A tree snapped in half and fell right between my house and my car. So I’ve been busy cleaning that up and chasing down everything that blew all over the place. Now the weather is 80s and sunny. Gorgeous! And I managed to take a few dips in the pool. I also found time to binge the entire Jesse Stone series. I love those movies. Didn’t do much reading. Still struggling to concentrate.

Stay safe and take care everyone.

Some chit chat.

It’s been another crazy week of work and more work.

I did manage to get in some pool time. Even got a bit of a sunburn. LOL

I also read a few books and actually managed to finish them.

And I finished binging Grey’s Anatomy. Now I’m looking for some more shows to watch. Got any suggestions for me? I’ve been turning to anything that will keep my mind off what is happening to all of us.

I had to take my son to the emergency room in the pre dawn hours on Thursday. They wouldn’t allow me in with him and I sat in my car in the parking lot for hours. He finally came out and it was discovered to be Kidney stones. Since then he has safely passed them and is doing well. It really hit home when I couldn’t go in with him.

Stay safe and take care everyone.

Another crazy week and not much new to report. Just tired and excited to get two days off in a row next week. The pool will be my first stop, and then the couch for some nappin and bingin. LOL

Stay safe and take care everyone.

Some chit chat.

It’s official. Out state is now in lockdown. All nonessential businesses are closed as of 5:00 P.M. Saturday. I’m still working as we are essential and the people are flocking in to grab everything they can. It’s difficult to avoid the 6 foot space suggestion when thousands come through all day and I have to sometimes get close in order to help them. I’m just crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.

I’m still watching Grey’s Anatomy when I have time and it’s a great escape from all that’s happening. A friend gave me a huge box of DVDs and I’m planning to watch them too. And I’ve organized my books so I don’t have to think after I finish one. I just grab the next in the stack. It’s a mix of genres and should be fun.

Stay safe and take care everyone.

I managed to actually finish a few books this week. And I’m totally hooked on binging Gray’s Anatomy. I swear that every other episode has me in tears. Sheesh, I’m such a softy. LOL I plan to squeeze in a couple of movies this coming week. I really want to watch Freaks. And then I plan on winging it by pulling an old favorite out of my DVD collection.

Have a lovely Sunday everyone.

Some chit chat.

I know I’ve been sharing a lot about how tired I’ve been. Like a broken record. LOL Thought it was time I told you a bit about my jobs. I worked as an auto detailer for 17 years. Basically, I transform the inside of nasty autos into something as close to new as possible. It’s dirty, nasty and hard work. Often entailing taking out everything, including the carpet to get it cleaned thoroughly. When I finally decided I was too tired and old for the job, I got a new one and gave my notice. I worked out my two weeks while also training for the new one. Then my boss begged me to continue working for them on a part time basis and I agreed. About my new job. I’m getting closer to retirement and wanted something close to home, inside and fun. I chose Walmart. I like retail work and interacting with people and having less responsibility. Thought it would be an easy job as a Self Checkout Host. Let me tell you, it’s hard work. You are on your feet for 8 hours a shift, have to keep your work area clean, which means every few minutes it’s dirty again, LOL, and help customers when something isn’t working right. And there’s lots of problem solving trying to figure out why something won’t ring up, why the machines refuse to accept items or payments, and having to figure it out yourself when it’s super busy and management can’t get there in a timely manner. I’m usually running from customer to customer to help them and it’s a large area.  I come home with aching feet, knees, hips and back most times. I did finally find a pair of shoes that really works and I bought every pair they had in my size! I’ve met some really great folks and made some new friends, something I’d really been wanting to do. And I now have a best friend! She’s awesome and we are so much alike. We text and talk on the phone when not working together. I always said if I quit my old job, I wanted to work at Walmart. It’s only 5 minutes from my house and since I shopped there all the time, I already new many of the employees. It’s fun and I love it. It will be my last job before I retire and I’m lucky I got it.

One quick note. I am finally ready to quit my old job for good. It’s a hard decision as it’s a family owned business and we are all really tight. But, it’s time. I don’t need the money and they have things in place for when I’m not there anymore.

And about Covid-19. While at work last night, they announced school closings in our area. It had been insanely nuts at work and I braced myself for more madness. Sure enough, people came in droves, often coming to my area with 4 or 5 buggies packed with stuff. Toilet paper and paper towels sell out faster than we can put them out and the same with water and nonperishables. I finally got off of work at 11 last night and walked the grocery aisles to see what it looked like. Barren shelves everywhere! It felt like a scene from The Walking Dead! I’m not panicked about the virus, but I’m worried about being able to get the things I need for normal day to day living as people are buying everything in bulk, leaving nothing but empty shelves. I was lucky with one thing. I’d just updated my hurricane preparedness stuff and have plenty of supplies. I just don’t want to have to dip into them and not have them later. Is it the same where you live? Are people panicking?

One more update. We now have some confirmed cases in our county. Our store is now closing earlier and we are being offered to work as much overtime as we want. I guess it’s in case they have to close for a couple of weeks. We will also get paid if they close. I hope it doesn’t come to that.

Have a lovely Sunday everyone.
