Good morning last work day today before Christmas. For some lucky people it’s the last working day of the year, but I’m not one of them. All was quiet last night not an email or call and that’s the way I hope things stay from this moment until it’s time to go back on Wednesday.
I finished the latest story I was working on and had time to burn last night. I dusted off an old keyboard and fired up my laptop. I used Libre Office to type up part of the story until it was time to get ready for bed. Saved it to a cloud account and confirmed this morning I was able to open it in Word on my desktop. I have lots of edits to make but funny thing is that most only show up in Word, which is okay. I make Word read the story back to me so I know a bit better how it sounds. I do the same thing with letters I write. In any case between the writing, the porn I got earlier in the day I was all horned up so I had to do something about that. Something about writing really gets my juices flowing and puts me in a much better mood. If I run out of guys to write about or can’t think of a story line that really takes the wind out of my sail, so to speak.
Still no invite for Christmas. I expect something to come tonight, if it doesn’t then regardless of what my friends are having I will tell them I made other plans there invite arrived way too late. After all timing is everything.
Today started early for me at 5am but I was able to get back to sleep for one additional hour. Rudy climbed on top of me and I was already awake. I love to feel him climb on and just sack out. I also like to change positions and let him move with me or jump off and climb back up. He sticks with me as long as I want him to. We got our morning cuddle time. Mora jumped up on the bed and she got a little loving as well. Then I opted to climb out of bed and start on breakfast. I always think there is some reason why I am up, I might not know it but everything happens for a reason. Well this morning there is lots of rain headed our way so I was able to bring in the trash barrel before the rain started so I don’t have to worry about getting wet. I know I’m sweet but despite all of the water I still don’t melt.
Had plenty of extra time on my hands and elected to watch the news and the cats joined me for some extra attention. Mora got her belly rubbed and was able to snuggled on my chest. She is quite the ham. When I had to get up, I could just hear them both say, aw we thought you had the day off. I said nope that’s tomorrow.
However, it’s quiet very quiet and we have one meeting in a few hours that may or may not happen. Bossman isn’t feeling good. I hope he’s got something serious that will put him in the hospital but I know it’s not good to wish ill of others. He’s going on vacation and I’d love nothing more than if he just threw in the towel and called it a day today. He’s just such a prick at times and I’d love him to get a taste of his own medicine. He doesn’t pay attention to what I have to say and when I complain he doesn’t do anything but try to pacify my concerns. He’s patronizing and loves to butter you up just before he drops a turd of a task on top of you, that’s how you know something is coming and it’s not good. He was busy scheduling recurring meetings for next year so my phone and inbox were buzzing for a while. Damn if he isn’t keeping the same schedule for all of the meetings so we will still meet twice per week for 52 weeks. Thank God I get a few more days off next year. I’m quite happy with my job but I could use a better boss and to be surrounded by a lot less stupidity. But still I remain thankful for what I have even if it’s not 100% perfect I don’t know that a perfect job exists for everyone. I know of a time that I had one for a couple years but it ended. So, ever since then I am just happy to be employed but yet I bitch because well it’s just something we do here in America.
Found the obituary for my friend’s mom that passed. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. She was quite a special person and I know she would love it. Sounds like she is being cremated. There is a mass (Catholic) for her early next year and then a reception/life celebration afterwards. It’s a bit of a trip for me to make and of course it’s on a week day so I’d need to take time. I am mulling it over but probably won’t go. I know it’s going to be packed and crowds really aren’t my thing but it would be nice to see my childhood friends IRL instead of in photos on social media. My heart aches for them but eventually we all loose our parents, that is the way it should be and not the parent burying the child.
The exterminator finally showed up very late in the service window. He never knocked on the door just did his thing outside. I was busy on the inside fine tuning the cancellation letter. I’ve modified it so much from it’s original form. Taken out things that just didn’t need to be said. Truth is I will probably modify it again before I send it. I convey why I am leaving quite well so there is absolutely no doubt. I am stoked to get it in the mail but like I said earlier timing is everything and I need to wait a little bit. Meanwhile I looked on Amazon and found everything from the chemicals they use to the bait stations and bait blocks they use it’s all way cheaper but you have to do it yourself. Like any service the markup is in the labor and they were socking it too me. Doing it myself will save me lots of money in the long run. Plus there will be no waiting or need to de-gay the house.
I am ready for time off, even if I do have to keep an eye on my phone for the next 3 days. Lots to do from the bank, the post office, grocery store, cat food store and then working in eating out. There is that trip I want to make to the new restaurant. They open at 6a and close at 1p each day. I’m not exactly sure that I will make this weekend but it’s on my to do list. I am really craving some fried chicken and KFC’s Cole Slaw, it’s the only thing that I will eat that contains horseradish. They are across the street but I am so lazy. Been wanting it for weeks but just haven’t made it there yet. Might do that, that could be a nice Christmas Dinner for me but I would need to grab it on Sunday. Ah sounds so good!
I don’t know if I will post over the weekend so I will take the time now to thank you for stopping by. I appreciate you! I hope that your holiday is the best and that you are able to be with those that you love and you get every gift you want. Take care.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
