Friday

Good Morning … Hooray we made it!  I always look forward to Friday not only because it’s marks the end of the work week but because Friday’s are typically calm days.  Here’s hoping that trend continues. 

I got a text from a friend yesterday checking on me, which was nice.  Got another one of those on Monday from a different friend letting me know about a mutual person we know that passed away.  I chatted a bit by text with both.  Not much of a texting guy I really prefer the phone.  At least with a phone call it’s marked with an ending whereas a text conversation just stops at some point and there is no real way to tell it’s over with. 

I was able to wrap up by 2pm yesterday and largely sat and watched court on TV.  Flipping between District Court in MI and the James Crumbly trial.  Saw a person in MI come in and say that she was the Principal for the Defendant and the Judge questioned if she was the same person that was charged.  Indeed she was.  She was just out of her mind.  She tried to settle a criminal trial without knowing the rules of the court.  She didn’t want her attorney but he got her sent for a mental fitness test.  She’s either got a good act or she truly is out of her mind.  Only time will tell. 

Had the Jack Daniel’s BBQ Pork for supper last night.  It’s messy to make but it’s good.  I used to eat the whole thing but this time I only ate about half.  I’ve got the other half for supper tonight.  I would love some sides to go with it that is extra work and I don’t really have a side to go with it. 

Nice gloomy drizzle day here in the 50’s which isn’t bad.  I heard the slamming of the cans this morning as the trash truck made it’s way through the subdivision.  I don’t know how anyone can sleep through that they make so much noise.  I’ve managed to sleep through it in the past but very few times.  I made my way outside before the true down pour comes so I didn’t have to get soaked to grab the empty trash barrel. 

I’ve managed to get through all that I need to this morning.  Put one task off until Monday just because I didn’t feel like dealing with it today.  Now I am all set to go back up and watch Court on TV for the rest of the day until someone needs me.  I watch every email that comes in when my phone goes off so that I don’t miss anything.  I don’t necessarily jump anymore unless it’s absolutely necessary. 

My back is bothering me so I will probably spend some time on the foam roller.  I think that calling it a foam roller is deceptive because you think or at least I did, that it was soft and would be comfortable.  It’s hard and anything but comfortable.  It hurts like hell but it works knots and other things out.  I remember back during the pandemic I pulled it out and used it my back was like a bowl of Rice Krispy's going snap, crackle and pop.  It felt good and got me out of pain.  Although I had a difficult time getting up from the floor. 

Looking forward to Mexican Food.  I keep going over my order in my head and will look at the menu on-line to see if I want to make any changes.  That will be the highlight of tomorrow.  Not sure if I will make it out for breakfast or have something here at home.  I’ve a couple options and won’t make a final decision until I know how I feel in the morning as well as what time I decide to roll out of bed. 

Here’s hoping it’s a good weekend for everyone and that we can all relax and rest up because another week will be here before you know it.  Although for me it should feel like I am on vacation because my boss will be out and that meeting that I was supposed to attend got moved again for when he is back.  Fingers crossed for smooth sailing!

Take care, relax and have fun!
