Tonight,I am feeling pretty good despite the weather situation outside.I had a very stressful day today mainly due to the weather.The weather was very windy with winds gusting over 60 miles an hour.When I arrived at the drug/alcohol rehab center to do the pick-up,my sunglasses blew off my face and I ran to get them but the wind made me slip on an icy patch where my car was blocked.I was hurt only a little but I did manage to pick my sunglasses up and put them in my car so I wouldn't lose them again.After that,I went inside to get the laundry bags.
When I got out with the first two bags,my hat was blown off my head by the high winds and I had to jump over a frozen grassy hill to get it back.Fortunately,I didn't slip this time and I managed to get my hat back without the property owner catching me in the act of coming onto his property.I then put my hat in the car so I wouldn't lose it again.After that,I went and got two more filled bags.Everything was almost going as well as planned until I tried to close my passenger side rear door.It wouldn't close.The cold weather overnight must've made the door freeze and that is why I couldn't close it.It was giving me a hard time to say the least.But I managed to fix the problem myself by holding the door closed for about 5 minutes with the door locked.When I managed to get that fixed,I drove to the work site to drop the dirth laundry off.
The drop-off went well without a hitch.I simply dropped the bags into the cellar and walked down the stairs to sort it all out.That also went well without a hitch.I also had a light lunch with a few of the people at the social club.I also helped out someone I knew by dropping them off at a bank before resuming what I had to do.I simply went to pick up some important papers for my mom regarding the house we live in and headed for the post office.I had to send out a money order to someone in Buffalo.
When I got to the post office,I got out of my car and the wind blew my hat off my head again.I chased after it while trying to avoid the oncoming cars behind me.I succeeded in retrieving it again and I put it in my car so it wouldn't blow away again.After I purchased the money order and sent it out,I got back into my car and headed for home.On the way,I stopped at a Dollar General store to pick up a small tube of toothpaste because I was running out of toothpaste.That small tube will do nicely until I get a really big tube next month.
When I got home,I decided that I wasn't going to go anywhere today due to the wickedly windy weather.I stayed home for the rest of the day and I decided to relax and take it easy.The day,though stressful and exciting,was actually not too bad.I managed to get a lot done and I had a feeling of accomplishment as a result.
I even managed to finish my personal PC work as well.I also watched one of the videos that I received on Monday.It was The Great Space Coaster Supershow video and it was awesome.I used to watch this show when I was younger.It was an awesome show.It was knee slapping fall down hilarious.This show brought back some pleasant memories.The best thing about it is that it took my mind off the windy weather that was outside,which was a treat.Overall,it was a nice way to end a pretty hectic day.
I am now relaxing.I am anticipating the new day,which will be a work day.I am hoping that the shift goes by smoothly.After the hectic day that I had today,I am going to need another smooth work day to make me feel better.I actually feel pretty good because I did enjoy watching that Great Space Coaster video but I will still need a smooth work day to get me back into a better mood for working again.
As stated,tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the shift goes by pretty well.
That was my day today and my hopes for the day ahead.FJ
