We are a couple hours away from the storm moving in. From the updates I have seen my area should see mostly snow. Anywhere from 3 to 9 inches. That’s just estimates based on forecasting models what actually happens is totally up to Mother Nature.
I was successful in operating today as if it was Sunday. Woke up early got a shower, headed to breakfast then on to the grocery store. I was not prepared to see parts of the store looking like it did back when the pandemic hit. They were totally sold out of milk unless you wanted to pay top dollar for glass bottle milk or drink skim. I opted to skip it.
After the grocery store I stopped by Target begrudgingly. It was and still is super cold outside and I’d just rather not be out in the elements. Anyway I found Milk but I was totally not prepared for a normal Target run. I did get a package of treats for the cats. Looked at my favorite Stouffers Casserole dish and they had it on sale but it just didn’t look appetizing to me. I hated to but I skipped it.
Back home to unload and rest. Had fun lounging with the cats and wound up taking a short nap in my recliner. Meanwhile Mora was stretched out on the bed all comfy and cozy. I was so jealous of her. Rudy and I the recliner. He doesn’t take up much room when he’s curled up next to my legs but there are other times when he can take up room when he decides to stretch out like his sister.
We lounged and I got wrapped up in some Netflix high school drama series. I figured there was a season 1 so I’d watch it and of course I got invested but the afternoon was passing me by and I finally made it to the last episode. Don’t you know there is another whole season. I still stopped and figured that I’d have something to watch later tonight and probably at some point tomorrow.
I headed out in hopes of seeing some buns and getting some pizza. Damn if cute guys were scarce but I did manage to find one but he also managed to hide. Pizza was good but as per usual I just ate a little bit and wound up taking most of it home.
Stopped by to pick up some more mail and then on to the gas station to top up my tank. Only took $12 which isn’t bad. Considering were going down below freezing for days I wanted to make sure that I had a full tank. I don’t expect that I will be going anywhere but better to be prepared.
Working on laundry as Rudy lays here in my arms as I type. He moves around to get comfy, falls asleep for a little bit and then wakes up and starts wiggling again. He’s something else.
My plans for tomorrow are to operate as if it was Monday and work. Since my gem of a boss left me with a shit ton to do the only way I see that I will have peace & quiet and be able to actually work is if I do it on my own time. I’ll keep track of my time and make sure that it’s made up to me. I’ve been thinking about the whole job thing. I really don’t want to start over some place new and be the low man on the roster but at the same time it does sound a little appealing. I just need a big time break from all of the silly bullshit that my job dishes out to me. It doesn’t help that I am good at my job because people just take advantage of me but at the same time there are some people that I like being their go to guy and others that I wish would forget all about me. Monday is still going to suck but I figure if I can get the big pressure items taken care of and off my plate it will suck a whole lot less. I am also sure there is a storm brewing at work. No good deed seems to go unpunished, at least for me. I like my job but I just get angry that I can’t seem to really take anytime off because I have to grind so hard to play catch up each time I return, especially some of the silly things that are left just for me. Then there is the silly stuff my boss leaves like meeting to plan out future conference calls. He needs to have a meeting to do that, instead of taking charge and just laying it out. Makes me wonder how he gets anything done in life without having a meeting. I have a low tolerance for stupidity and that coupled with the stress of going back and cleaning up another mess is enough to make me blow up.
That’s the day. I’ve got left over pizza to munch on for a couple days as well as the items I picked up at the grocery store. Just as long as power, water and internet keep on working I should be okay. Fingers crossed.
Now I am off to find some buns on the internet since that appears to be the only way I can see them is in porn. Hope your Saturday was relaxing and enjoyable. If your in the zone for the winter storm like I am hang in there we will get through it and this too shall pass. If you in a warm climate like California or Florida I envy you at the moment.
Thanks for stopping by, take care and be well.
