Nothing like driving home after a 12 hour shift with snowflakes the size of silver dollar pancakes… in April! Mother Nature went and played her April Fool’s joke two days late. Driving home in these conditions was not fun. The highway was down to one lane because there were no plows and we creeped and crawled along. Allison said that our house had very little snow. And one town over there was a ton of snow. But it all melted by the time I woke up that I didn’t have to shovel.
I was going to try and do a Star Wars thing today but ran out of time. I have one more day to put up my Star Wars party post to go along with the box that I received. But that will be tomorrow.
Today I took out a big bag of hot wheels cars that I had for both Star Wars and Marvel. I emptied that out and put them into some car cases, which are actually sewing spool cases. I had a couple that I had not yet opened so I picked two for today. Those were a Venom character car and a Wolverine character inspired car. You can see what the difference is in the video below.
We’ve had this tree that is half on our property and half on our neighbors’. The tree was very dead. So, we had a guy come out and take the tree down. I arrived back home while it was halfway done. MY dad was out there watching. So we stood out there for a while watching the tree come down. They took the tree down and mulched it up good. Now we have a little stump where the tree was. And now I have to make sure the rhododendron bush is looking good.
We’ve had this couch since we moved into the house, actually not that long but it is so uncomfortable. We got it from Bob’s Store and it has the goof proof but that doesn’t cover the cushions getting all warped. I called and tried but no good. So, there was a sale at Big Lots for 20% off and they had a really nice couch that we could get for a good amount. So I ran over to see if they had one of the couches left. When I got there someone was already looking at the couch I wanted. I found out that they had 4 left and I could go back at 2pm and get the discount. And if they were gone then I could get a raincheck at the discount price. So I went home and went to sleep.
The rest is in the video.
After I woke up and had dinner I ran over to Big Lots and got the last couch. While there I realized that I had my Skylanders SuperChargers for World Autism Day and ran back home to take photos of them. Did everything very quickly and rushed on off to work.
