I started vacation today, Tomorrow The Wife and I were to fly to Canada for vacation. We never bought airline tickets, the accommodation refunded our money, the trip is canceled but the vacation time remains.

Thanks covid

At work, nobody was taking vacation time, because there was no where to go, and they were off, working from home anyway. Now, as we approach the end of the year, there looms a mountain of employees with an entire year’s worth of vacation time to take. Can’t let everybody go all at once, so they asked us to take vacation time. I was just thinking of formally requesting the cancelation of my Canadian Vacation time when they asked. I can see their point of view, so I didn’t.

My Canadian Vacation has turned into a Cayman Vacation!

I think I’ll mow the yard, trim the trees and shrubs, maybe a little painting and concrete work…

And diving and the beach!!!

Have a great weekend!!!

Listen, it did this last week, and I thought it was just me, but I’m tellin’ ya, today is Wednesay, not Thursday.

I got up this morning and was taking my daily pressure medicine, but, starting the second pillbox row, I wanted to take the pills out of the correct little compartment. (I use my box, just like the one below, for two weeks of pills) so, checked the day of the week, knowing full well it was Wednesday.

So I checked my watch and it said Thursday. Knowing that was wrong, I turned on the kitchen light to look at the wall calendar, it was still on June, so I turned the page to July, and it says the 2nd is Thursday. Well, I knew it was July 2nd, but I also knew it’s Wednesday. Wondering how the wall calendar could be wrong, I opened the calendar app on my phone an it too, mistakenly said Thursday July 2nd.

Don’t you believe it. It’s Wednesday. I know it. I can count the workdays this week on my fingers. Wednesday. Same thing happened last week and I let it slide, but not today Bobo.

It’s Wednesday!

I’ve noticed a trait that seems to have developed in me. Vehicle usage. I go to work, and come home. If I need to take care of any business or shopping I do it on the way to work or on the way home. Once I’m home, I am very reluctant to take a vehicle back out again. I’ll ride my bicycle, but I resist taking the van or scooter. I’ve said it before, my idea of a good weekend is when I get home from work Friday, and don’t go out till I go to work Monday. Seems to mainly mean vehicle usage.

Anyway, this seems to have developed into a preference right under my nose without me noticing it.

Yesterday I got my new Kindle. I love it so far. The one thing is I liked having the button to turn the page, not just touching the screen. I have already turned pages without meaning to. AND it turns the page so fast that I can barely see the switch, sometimes I wonder if I touched it hard enough. But it’s nice, waterproof, strong feeling and the back light is great.

July already, can you believe it? Have a good month!
