The Coffee House

Gary A. · Feb 21, 2015

I just got home from taking Mary Lou to the salon and then I hit the wine store. Pick enough good stuff to restocked the shelves and grab a smaller Dutch Oven for my bread. The first Dutch Oven was too large for the size of my bread. Picked up my fav beer Hangar 24 Orange-Wheat and a 750ml corked bottle of some Canadian beer. (We'll see how that goes down.) 67F right now, a good breeze from the Pacific keeping everything cool.

Two words: Beaded curtain! Seriously, leave the door open and take a trip back to '72 or so with a nice beaded curtain. You know, just to keep the flies out? That might get the message across.

i haven't seen a beaded curtain in years. I miss them. No one has them anymore..

Actually, I know exactly where I could get one! We have this cool little local shop that has some.

I would be really tempted to do this, except for the fact that a beaded curtain would not reduce my sense of irritation at all the noises and activity in the hallway. It *would* absolutely irritate the stuffing out of...errr. certain "higher up" individuals, so it does have that in its favor.

Just got back home from a small shopping expedition. Surprisingly, the grocery store was not crazy-crowded (no, we are not in the bread-milk-toilet paper crowd). We had light snow when we went out, a bit heavier & covered streets a couple of hours ago, and now we are into the mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain.

According to the radar, we are just about to hit the heavy rain portion of this storm.
Since the rain didn't materialize until so late, and the temperature didn't get quite as high as they forecasted, we are just now about to go from extreme conditions routing to regular snow routes. It'll be tomorrow morning, I guess, before we return to regular routing.

That means I did not get my nap, because I've had to monitor social media, email and media contacts all day long.

I'm so tired that in one post, I said a particular route would serve start from a particular mall at 7 p.m.--which was correct, only I called the mall by its previous name, a name that was changed probably 20 years ago.

Ah, think nothing of it. The readers will just assume you're tired.

Do you really have to think very hard to figure out if it would be a good idea or not?

Went into Walmart.com this morning for groceries too. Tab was $199.98. I think it was rigged to under $200. We have ice headed this way tomorrow night and Monday. Forgot salt, pepper and beer!! Won't starve, anyway, if we get iced in. Topped off car tank, too. Grandson here playing PS4. Oh, Jaca! That was him messaging you about playing a game lol!!
