The Plains
Rainy start to the Tuesday π β
Busing it on in this morning. It’s not a heavy rain, I probably could have biked in but I would have gotten wet.
Kind hoped to catch the earlier bus in π but it was running early and I was late because I was glueing my boot sole again π₯Ύ hoping to get a few more weeks out of it through vacation π. I’ve been trying to get to work earlier to ensure I’m getting in sufficient legislative hours for the week. π
Yesterday I rode both ways to end from work π² but I was tired π΄ and after frying zucchini π and onions I basically laid back in bed π. Mostly just wasting time. Sat out back for a while. I’ve been thinking more about that $150k homestead I passed over next to my parents house as the grass grows up around it again and returns to looking abandoned. π It could have been mine. Renting sucks but that place is a dump and I would have to drive to work. π» And the numbers just don’t work, with taxes and fuel β½ and the inevitable quick decline of my now old jacked truck with commuting.
Filled that Word Processor position at work. π€I think I made a good decision, her references were good. Like anything in life it’s a crap shoot π² and you try make good decisions with the limited information and resources you have. The job will get done and if it doesn’t work out I’m know there are other good candidates. There are many choices in this world and it’s not always obvious what is right when you are ultimately the decider. β
Slowly but surely getting ready for vacation. πΒ Hopefully it won’t rain every night through Thursday so I’m not packing in the rain. π§οΈ Most of the stuff I need to pack – clothes ππ©³ and cooking utensils π³ I can’t really pack until Thursday evening.
