Why I was at a convenience store at 12 in the morning or adventures of being married.


I am bone tired, at 440 am. My beloved is doing his own thing, and I’m waiting for the midol to start working. So far, you know, it’s a crap shoot.

I was getting ready to head to bed when my beloved asked me to run to Walmart. Um, no, Walmart is closed. He then quizzed me on what stores are open, and what nosh is available. Instead of blowing my stack, I just decided to say screw it.

I headed to the local 24 hr c-store. It looked like it had been looted. Sadly, nothing I can do about it. I grabbed the big easy things, bread milk and eggs. Throw in a rotissarie chicken, and then some cheese slices, bananas, and some cookies and done.

Why couldn’t this wait until morning? I’m not entirely sure. Meanwhile, I asked him to put the stuff away. I was done. It was finally time for bed. Only I couldn’t sleep to save my ass.

So, happy almost 5 am. I’m going to curl up with a podcast, and try to get a little sleep. Night now. -L

Cooler


Morning, it’s currently cooler in the office than in the house. My husband seems to think that running an air conditioner with the door open is a thing to do.

Sighs. I can’t sleep, at least not in the house. I might catch a snooze in the garage in my recliner, we will see. Meanwhile, still stitching away. The hottest months are my go time for getting ready for winter.

It’s the way of things. I organized my stitchery books a little yesterday. I’ve got some wrist warmers on the needles right now. It’s time to get back at it. Take care, -L

Hot sticky day


Made the mistake of opening the garage door to let Duke out. It’s definitely muggy out there. While I had the door open, I took the bin to the curb.

We beat feet back inside, and thankfully it was still a little cooler in the garage yet. After slamming the door down, I restarted the airconditioner, and sat in front of the fan.

Now for the irony, it’s more comfortable in the garage than in the main house. I may sleep out here tonight, we will see. The forecast for the day is nasty. It’s going to be over 90 with excessive humidity.

I’m thinking that it’s going to be another good day to sit, listen to podcasts, and knit. It’s what I do. Take care my friends. -L
