It seemed like I didn’t have this much to do yesterday

Morning, people of the world, passengers on the information superhighway. Happy Sunday. It’s another sunny and cool day here. But, it’s a day off. I’ll take it.

StressedRPh called just before 9am yesterday. Usually she just texts to ask if I can cover for NewTech. She said she called because she wanted to be absolutely certain I was ok with coming in. “I don’t want to burn you out”, she said. “But I also feel like you’d like the extra money”.

You have no idea.

So it was an easy shift with the new guy. He thanked me several times for covering. I handled the last of the prep needed to be done before tomorrow’s inventory. Since I had time, I finished up some training mods. I stuck around until 3pm, scored my easy five hours of extra pay, and headed out.

I stopped at the house and quickly changed into normal clothes, then grabbed some cash. The grocery store wasn’t as bad as I expected it to be. I had three things that I needed to buy: yogurt, laundry soap, and toilet paper. Anything else would be extras for dinners and snacks. Shawshank told me to buy a treat, so I grabbed a couple of chocolate doughnuts. I made myself a tofu and ramen bowl (with spicy peanut and chili sauce) for dinner.

It looks less than appetizing, but was pretty damned good.

Today is laundry day. I bought the smallest, cheapest thing of soap. I’ll make up for yesterday and do a workout this morning. I actually had one all picked out before StressedRPh called. There’s burgers defrosting for tonight’s dinner. Aside from the burgers, laundry, and workout, I still need to update the Facebook Marketplace stuff and put some dye in my hair.

But other than that, the day is mine.

Have a good Sunday. It’s time for me to bust my ass upstairs.

    I’m not a fan of tofu, but if you put steak or chicken in that ramen, I’d be all over that!
