Another plague victim...better than bad teeth I reckon. Gingivitis or something. Teeth are okay, it's just that the gums have to come out.

Sitting in the tree stand late yesterday...this after a day of installing three windows, doing this and that...there's these bugs, some sort of fly that hatches...maybe they're out all year long, but I notice them while sitting in a tree. They make a formation sometimes as small as a football, others as large as a bathtub standing upright and all they do is flutter up and down...up and down...like they can't make up their mind. What mind? They form a flock of about a dozen or two dozen. They have a white appearance, a lighter-colored bug.
And considering them this morning, I realize I failed to take note when they disappeared, or when I stopped noticing them. You ever notice bugs like that?

Almost everyone knows how I've been suffering with a spiteful, vindictive, rhymes with witch of a salon owner the last few months.....

Would it be wrong to pay my rent in change this week? I've saved exactly the $122 in various coins. It's not that I don't have the money in the checking account, but after six months of her behavior, I'm feeling a little vindictive myself.....

I like that idea- if she says anything, tell her you are helping her with Halloween treats for the neighborhood children- kids love coins as a treat.

That would spoil the look on her face when she sees the bag of coins....and gift certificates weigh significantly less than a pile of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters......

Give her all pennies and all the children can enjoy them.

Do you have that other job lined up for sure? If not, I'd think twice--lol

LOL.....Here's the beauty part......Since I rent my space, as long as I pay my rent on time each week, she can't legally fire me.
I can be evicted with good reason......paying rent with coinage is not good reason. :D

But yeah, I do have another place to work for sure.....just not with my first choice (yet)

Actually...if you followed me around I'd follow a pattern similar to a woman's shopping patterns...oops, forgot the gum over in the candy aisle...do that...strolling along, looking to the side there...nice! bump into some grumpy old man in a sweater...grab the gum, Wrigley's Spearmint, on sale, about five or six store attendants stocking shelves preparing for Halloween nobody directing traffic...the grumpy old man is following me so I execute a speed-turn yooey and lose him...nod to the little girl in the jump seat of the cart being pushed by a gum-chewing mommy...she gives me the high-five signal...the little girl not the mommy who starts to text her friends about the pedophile in Walmart...cruise down the canned goods aisle looking for tuna fish...up and down the aisle three four times...no luck...then realize I have to get on the floor and reach way in the back...there's a shriek from the end...get to the line of registers and realize I forgot three things...go back...forget one of them say the hail with it I'm frazzled get in line behind the gum-smacker but all is well as the little girl is smiling. A smile goes a long way.

Happy Friday folks! It's been a long week, and I am looking forward to the weekend. Daughter's school's fall carnival is tonight (I'm helping with the haunted house! bwa-ha-ha!), then tomorrow I'll be helping her finish her science fair project on beach erosion. Yep, a fun-filled weekend!

Hope all are safe and well!

((all in need or not))
