Back to work unfortunately. I really wish that my foray in the the stock market would pay off so that I could quit my job and live off my options trading. Even though I have my assistance it seems like every stock I but does the opposite of what they are predicting. Maybe I should just do the opposite when I buy the options! Economy isn’t helping much. Stock market has been on a roller coaster ride since Covid hit last March.

Speaking of Covid, got my first shot on Friday. Usually stuff like this doesn’t really bother me but for some reason I was really not looking forward to it. Was in and out in about 20 minutes. My arm hurt like a mother about 1/2 hour after I got home. Took some Advil and it was better. Still really sore on Saturday so I played slug. Sunday morning i could still feel it a bit but by the time I went to be last night it was fine.

Did I tell you that Gin had a reaction to her second shot??? LOL I’m old and forgetful. Any who, she had chills, body ache and felt crappy overall the day after. Next day she still had some aches but was much better. Doesn’t make me look forward to getting my second on. Did what Marcia told me to do. To my Benadryl couple hours before and the Advil when I got home and I was good. No problems. Hopefully that will work the same with the second shot.

I can’t believe that we had snow last Thursday. Well I can believe it but didn’t give me any warm and fuzzies. We must have had two inches. Gin was all worried about her daffodils. I was trying to think of some way that we could protect them from the snow so that they wouldn’t get crushed by the snow. (Which did turn out to be wet and heavy, nature of the beast at this time of year). We have some wide boards in the garage and I thought maybe we could suspend them over the flower beds, thus saving them from annulation. Then I had a palm to forehead moment. Just put the buckets over the bunches of flowers. We didn’t have enough buckets but the larger flower pots worked good to. They came through the storm fantastically! We really only covered the ones that had blooms on them. Some of the others were only about 2 inches high with no blooms yet, those are fine, and sister is happy which is good.

So I know I’ve gossiped to you about a couple of my coworkers, me bad! But some of the shit they pull is just gossip worthy. I know I’ve told you about “A” (you know I don’t name names to protect the idiots), so I have to give her points for all the weight she has lost in the last year. (I wish I was as successful). I get that she is proud of her accomplishment but the outfit she has on today just kills me. She’s wearing a loose sleeveless dress, with a sweater cover up and ankle boots. I know your thinking that sounds like a put together outfit and it would be if the dress didn’t hit her midthigh. Nobody wants to see all the cellulite on the back of her legs. (well I don’t). She has lost a lot but her ass and thighs are still pretty big, ha, even bigger than mine! It’s a giggly, lumpy mess back there. I guess I’m just to up tight about what people would think if I wore something like that cause you know that I’ve got a bumpy butt too. She just walks around with a smile on her face and obviously doesn’t give a crap. Yup that’s me uptight and judgmental. She’s a special one that one. (I won’t even get into the boyfriends and the witchcraft).

Well tomorrow is another day! Talk to you later!
