Midweek

Hey we made it to the half way point of the week.  It’s moving pretty fast for me.  This morning I heard an advertisement for a Christmas Concert in November and then next thing I know there was a story on the news about Snow removal.  Were only in August.  I thought Pumpkin Spice season started early.  I know that by in large the world things that Summer is done but it’s actually still alive for a little bit longer, fall doesn’t start until September 22nd which is a month away. 

Saying that I heard that our temperatures will be dropping into the 50’s overnight in the next day or so.  However, it’s still going to be warm out during the day and feel very much like summer time. 

Back to school seems to usher on Fall, Thanksgiving & Christmas and before you know it the year is done and were starting all over again.  I know that time doesn’t stand still for anyone but damn it could slow down a little bit. 

Things here are moving right along.  Two weeks and my birthday will be here along with some much needed vacation.  I crunched the numbers yesterday and if my calculations are correct I still have roughly 2 weeks of vacation to burn.  I want to see that materialize before I go burning time that I had planned on saving.  I like to keep 2 weeks in reserve just in case something happens and I need it. 

Last year I said that on my birthday next year (this year) I’d buy a new vehicle but mine is doing fine and only dropping in value.  I don’t honestly need a new vehicle but the temptation is sure there.  I think I am going to stay put with what I have, keep saving money and hope that all goes well to make it another year.  Truth be told I will probably drive this until the wheels fall off or something goes seriously wrong that there is no trade in value.  I just feel so connected to this vehicle & I bought it not having any idea of how or if I would be able to pay it off and I manage to pull that off.  I suppose if I start driving more that I would be more apt to give in and get something new but right now staying put seems like the best thing to do. 

Speaking of cars I watched a video last night on Waldo’s World (You Tube Channel) about Range Rovers.  Waldo is a hunky and attractive guy to me but he’s also got a lot of knowledge.  Videos have a way of making everything seem simple.  Anyway this video was about the cost of ownership.  I already knew if you owned a Range Rover or Land Rover you need a 2nd car on standby because they are not reliable but they seem comfy and fun to drive when they are actually functioning correctly.  I’d never buy one because I don’t have that kind of money but the video was fun.

Yesterday I went down the porn rabbit hole and found a free site that had a lot of interesting content.  Between work and surfing in my free time I spent way more time in front of the computer than I wanted to.  However, I had a fun night. 

Cats are doing well.  I’m eating pretty good.  Tried a Starkist Tuna Fish lunch kit.  It’s a box you pick up for $2.35 and it’s got everything you need to make your own tuna fish and crackers.  Kind of neat.  I threw it in the fridge even though it doesn’t require refrigeration until you open it, that made it taste better.  Rudy tried to fight me for the Tuna when I cracked it open.  His little nose smelled it and wanted some but I didn’t give in.  Maybe some day I will but I seriously doubt it.  Once you start that you will forever be chasing your tail, so to speak. 

Today is meeting day and the cluster project thus far is still moving right along.  I figure that towards the end of this week or the start of next is when things will become an issue but we shall see. 

Right now I’ve got a bunch of time on my hands and I plan to enjoy it while that time remains mine but if work beckons I shall answer.  Hope all is well in your world.
