I had a great day! I had to get up to feed the cats and pass out medicine at 6a. That was horrible. I watched a little TV and then returned to bed. My sleeping pals were quick to join me. When I woke up I found that someone (most likely momma) decided that my sweatpants were a good place to go to the bathroom. Not exactly sure why but I will say they sure are soft.
I had some sugar cereal or more specifically Cinnamon Toast Crunch. 1/2 of the box is now gone. Man it sure was good! Knowing that I would be getting tired once the sugar wore off I opted to just be lazy and take my time. I wound up going back to bed and finally got up and got moving around 2p.
I had a dream that me and my late spouse were at Steak N Shake trying to pay our bill. It was a little bit of a fiasco. We were on great terms talking. I didn’t fully appreciate that it was a dream until I woke up. He’s always on my mind but the dreams of him and with him don’t happen that often.
Anyway I got a shower and put on some of my $26 beard oil. That stuff doesn’t stop the itching but the 520 5% lidocaine cream mixed with it sure does help. I still kind of want this fur off of my face. It’s rough and just doesn’t look like me. However, I am purposely keeping it going at least until after Thanksgiving. Why? Because it will make me look different and that’s what I am going for.
Today was a me focused day. I did the shopping I needed to. Very surprised that I got myself some new shoes for work. They are Sketchers with Memory Foam and damn they look dressy but feel more like a sneaker. Love that. I got some new socks to go with them. While I was at it I threw in a pair of pants. I just picked out my size and didn’t bother to try them on until I got home. My hands were full and if push came to shove I knew I could return them. Thankfully they fit just fine. They have this semi sticky lining in the waist band to help keep your shirt tucked in. Kind of a novel idea. Everything I wear on Thanksgiving Day with the exception of my underwear, watch and any jewelry will be totally new. I’m a little excited. I also found the pants I got on Amazon for less so when I want a new pair that’s where I will go instead of a big box store.
When I was finally done I took myself to the pizza place and ordered a salad, garlic cheese bread and lasagna along with a soda. Damn it was all very good and I left very full. That feeling lasted for a couple hours. It’s 9p and that meal was around 3:30p. I am perfectly fine. I have an urge for ice cream or something sweet but I am keeping that in the back of my mind.
Came home and curled up in the chair. Watched the local news. We have tons of rain moving into the area. It’s a storm that has Winter on one side and Spring on the other. Thankfully were on the Spring side. If we were on the Winter side we would be like Denver where they got 32 inches of snow and there is more on the way. I’d like a little snow but not 32 inches. I just imagine having that on Black Friday I’ll bet you people would still come out in droves for the “bargains”.
Eventually I made my way downstairs and recorded my spending, logged my paycheck I’m getting tomorrow and paid bills. Then placed another Amazon order. I did put the pen I have my eye on in my cart but since it couldn’t be delivered tomorrow I removed it. It’s back on my Shopping List and at some point I will probably buy it. As it is I have a couple new toys coming. A battery tester and a laser non contact thermometer. Some other consumables like ink for the printer and Cinnabon Cream of Wheat. I just love that stuff. I took it easy on my spending because my extra cash is almost done for.
My adventure for tomorrow will be Sam’s Club for drinks and gas for the car. If I feel like it I may drive for pie but since there is rain on the way 2 hours on the road for pie, not sure that I can justify that. There are some cleaning tasks I would love to get done.
I did check in with work and got the missing piece I needed to complete the one new hire. No word on the other two but if they are coming tomorrow would be the day that happens, otherwise they won’t be starting on Monday.
That’s all I got for now. Looking forward to relaxing a bit before bed with the cats, taking in some TV and then calling it a night. I will likely be up late since I got such a late start. The cats won’t mind.
Take care and be well.
